When my club didn't exist it was still bigger than yours

The money person is Christa Ackroyd and Maccbull_BigBullyBooaza's restraining order will do serious damage to the cherry brandy sales.

Over Christmas Mick appeared to switch sides and back the bid saying it was a great chance... we're running out of stirrers :(

A disgruntled civil servant told me that the sale has been delayed by a disgruntled civil servant.

Probably had a strongly worded letter from the administrator's solicitor suggesting he stop with the accusations.

Ok, I think it's time I told you what I know. I have lurked this thread from the very beginning, and eventually found I had some insider knowledge (a friend of someone very close to the administrator) but didn't post what I knew, partly because it might have been totally wrong and partly because, as a Wakey fan, you would have marked me down as a troll anyway.

However, having read recent threads I am now sure that what I have been told is true so I think it's time to share my knowledge with you.

So here it is... As some have alluded to, the administrator keeps an eye on this thread because - wait for it - he gets paid according to the number of posts/pages it amounts to. Therefore it's in the administrators interests to drag the whole thing out as long as he can, as long as the post count on this thread keeps increasing.

So there you have it. The cold truth!

Seriously though, I do hope you lot come through this; whilst I was envious of what the Bulls achieved a decade or so ago, I always saw you as Wakey's favourite rivals; ok you whupped our backsides regularly but with Cas, Shudds and Leeds to contend with I much preferred to play Bradford. Also like your stadium, outdated millstone it may be, but it has some character and in some ways is similar to Belle Vue. You always brought big crowds to Belle Vue which helped our situation.

I watched your previous admins with interest; after all Wakey always seem to be just one cock-up away from admin (notwithstanding the current Chairman who seems to be doing a fantastic job of keeping us in SL on a shoestring!). I sincerely hope you come back from this and make it back to SL, hopefully to continue our rivalry (but not as sucessfully as you once did!).

Hope that makes sense!

Can anybody remember how close to the start of the season were previous Admins resolved? Aren't we supposed to have a game 6 weeks on Sun?

We're supposed to be playing Batley a fortnight on Sunday, never mind 6 weeks. Although I know what you're referring to.

Marc Green was appointed new owner at the end of March 2014. Omar took over in Aug/Sep 2012.

Cheers, and don't worry - it makes more sense than 90% of this thread :)

Hearing that if the club announces anything before page 350 it could signal the end of the world.

Administrators and RFL doing the right thing holding back till then.
