As a fan, I expect any new owner to be busting their balls over the next few days trying to salvage whatever they can from the wreckage. I'm cool with being told about it once they know what's left and have something to announce.


Like you FA I can wait.
However I find it incredible that as late as this afternoon , Rohan Smith is asking the Guardian journalist( Aaron Bower) for timings. It seems crystal clear to me that the RFL have not kept the coach ( and players ) informed of developments , particularly any timetable they were working toward.
How on earth can a coach keep an ever diminishing squad together when the RFL is obviously not communicating with him. Morally , if not legally , the RFL have a duty of care.
As Bower comments - not the RFL's finest hour.

Can't wait :D . Like one of those rollercoasters you thought had finally ended and then goes for another lap. Let's just hope there's a few more rises, twists and turns and its not just one big drop.

I'm sorry I embarrassed the game. I didn't do it on purpose, I'll try harder next time.

Totally agree with this.
Let them sign up the key players and do the important business of setting up a new club without having to do photo opportunities.
All we need to know is that there is a "deal done" - but they are busy right now but will talk publicly on Monday.
I hope they and Rohan have been having talks with the players today.

Not the RFL's place to keep a coach (who may or may not be employed by the new owners) in the loop. New owners could have but apparently chose not to.
