I have a doubt over the £360m on his Wikipedia page.

| Quote Bulliac="Bulliac"Bfd Met, along with Calderdale, were going to build such a plant at Bowling Back Lane last year, but it was backheeled late in the day. Not [ientirely[/i sure why, but I think it had something to do with a grant failing to materialise which screwed up the finances. IIRC the Govt money went on to fund a similar scheme in Leeds [no surprise there then.
I'd guess a private company may well find it a good investment and Odsal would be ideal, given its past use, ease of access and sheer size. I'd guess the council would get a fair old price for the land and be able to provide a suitable ground for the Bulls, maybe to be built by the new owner. Wouldn't want to be a fly on the wall in the meeting between company, club, council and RFL - I think I've got headache already.'"
Not shocked at all that it ended up going to Leeds! This seems like the logical reason for Sawrij to be involved, as you say it means the government may not have to fund this project and the council will receive a lot of money for the land. Almost like their work is being done for them in terms of Sawrij developing the Odsal site. If I am honest I am all for a recycling plant or something similar to be built! The more of those the merrier! Be nice if we could get one of those energy producing recycling plants! Could use it to power Odsal

Gledipaedia - when the source is more likely to be Heinz (Ben Kavanagh's tweet) than reliable.

Read a snippet on Sunday Times and he was £50m in late noughties, £42m the year after. And Courier has £56m in 2011.
Not that it isn't to be sniffed at btw.

Part of me would rather we were liquidated so that Green gets f**k all.

If he put 650k of his own money into the club to try and keep it going, why would you want him to lose it all?

Someone linked an article about Sawrij in this thread last night. I think it was from 2011 and it cited the company's annual turnover back then at roughly £50m. If it's only grown since then I don't see why a value of £400m is unrealistic.

Because people have got this idea into their head he is been greedy now having heard the rumour he took the season ticket money and provident money out before the admin which are both unfounded rumours.

Why cause this unholy mess then? And why block a bid if he has any good intentions at all?

Looks like another ideal Bulls owner

Also aren't you concerned that your "perfect for waste management" real estate will be owned by someone in the waste management business, who only came forward at the last minute. When he sensed a business opportunity.

Did he cause it? Or did our p*ss poor performances and 5th place finish in 2016 cause it? In either case I'm fairly certain this wasn't his original intention.
Until we have some official statements from the administrators, we don't know who or why a bid is being blocked. Maybe it's hmrc and not Green who is blocking it? Or perhaps the bidder is taking the mickey and offering them next to nothing?

The impending wage bill will presumably play a large part in that!

I agree. Not looking great.
One would assume and sales agreement was reached with the failed bidder with the RFL, so hopefully the new bidder agrees with that and then only the dreaded administrator to pass the bid. Or Green accepting what money he gets back (the f##king dog)

He has taken us into 2 admins. He is culpable for most of the s**t we are in.
He wants the Bulls to succeed, is this the best way to go about it?
Maybe I'm just angry and looking for someone to blame. I know it's not as simple as that. But he is not coming out of this particularly well as far as I'm concerned.

I'm inclined to mostly agree. Not paying the tax we owe on money earned appears to have been the tipping point, and for that id say Marc green is entirely responsible as the owner. The poor league performance and finishing position didn't help obviously, but poor appointments and squad management caused that, again the buck ultimately stops with him so my sympathy level is low for mg and i wouldn't want him to regain control and any money should go to hmrc and suppliers before mg.
