You've been very good with the posting and they have said everything what you'd expect to hear now what it needs is drilling them with your questions, one I'd ask is it odsal was too expensive to run the club from how can the new owners do any different than run up debts

Yes doing a great job thanks for doing it how do you feel about what's being said with you being there

Sawyer seems genuine. Hes had to deal with a few questions around his conflict of interest but so far hes handled them well.

Biggest seller for me is that Crossley spoke very passionately about the future. Fans need to turn up but the players need to be signed up first. He seems up for it which gives me more confidence than any shareholder could ever do.

I'm sure there will be more difficult questions second half as so far been pretty much the table telling how it's got to this point.

Just wanted to second this. Great job! What's the atmosphere like in the room? It all sounds very positive but crucially also realistic, and much as I didn't want to be I'm feeling quite enthused...

I agree... there has been similar messages before. There are plenty wanting to ask their questions so I'm leaving them to it.

At least one has already promted a change in policy (disabled car parking).

There was a question I missed which was about high ticket prices. Sawyer and perez said it could be looked at but didnt want to upset the RFL now the budgets have been agreed.

If enough want it changed can look at it but would cause issues this year

Re: Bulls Takeover : Tue Oct 22, 2019 8:00 pm  

Back on... first question.

What makes you lot different to the last 3 owners?

We will pay back creditors some straight away.

Pensions regulator is happy with coms and will be paid back. Bloody shambles described as. Negligence and mickey poor says Sawyer.

Players have till early November to decide whether to stay or go. Once decided then it will be settled as advised by regulator.

Chalmers has most of money in account to settle???

Re: Bulls Takeover : Tue Oct 22, 2019 8:02 pm  

Sawyer reveals that an old lottery account from before OK days that's locked down has £100k sat in it.

It may look like it's been stolen but it's just sheer incompetence.

Re: Bulls Takeover : Tue Oct 22, 2019 8:03 pm  

Perez was on flight from Canada within hours of offer.

Great opportunity for Bulls and great opportunity for me!!!
