So why hasn't he?

Why do you think? It can't be because he cares for them? Maybe you can say this was the players look out, especially those with families, and maybe it was.

TWP are a limited liability company with no assets, allowing Argyle to walk away, and walk away he has, leaving families in the lurch it's disgusting.

But this has nothing to do with "Expansion" at all it's Perez just mucking about on the fringes of the game here.

Obviously if he had the money he would pay the players.

I offer up the only credible reason why and apparently that's rubbish.

Go figure.

1. Go look up all the limited liability businesses that are wound up to the detriment of staff with the mega rich owners walking away still rich. Try Arcadia and Philip Green as an example.

2. Then go and Troll someone else.

Oh course it's rubbish you in their mind would think otherwise but delusional people with delusional dreams,

So what your saying is there is no money in their account who would run a business like that bar for a conman

Not defending the guy or his business acumen but try this: Aussie mining magnate resident in Canada, while head poncho of Potash Company in Brazil.Due to Coronavirus he is prevented from leaving Canada.He is unable to sell shares and is certainly prevented from selling his part of the owned businesses he jointly owns with his friends.His bank accounts have run dry.How do you expect him to free up some money?

I cannot see him continuing in the sport, nor do I see our financially impacted sport continuing attempting to fly out to Canada to play further games.
I don't see Argyle being 100% honest, but cash flow problems are certainly understandable given his,and the current,circumstances.

Not in any Argyle account according to the trolling above, all Argyles accounts have run dry, not only that all his shares are worthless and won't sell on the stock market, and despite well over a $Billion of assets none are currently realisable, and he somehow can't even borrow some pocket money from his banker against his extensive assets either



You couldn't make it up - but they do

The players are still not being paid, despite Argyle apparently promising he would pay, "Multiple times".

Greg Worthington noted this and said he has gone out and got a job, and Superleague clubs have organised food hampers for the players and their families.

It's a disgrace, as is all the uncaring trolling the usual suspect and A.N.Other is doing..........

It most certainly is, I had I short brief spell working with Greg when he was at Huddersfield giants great lad to work with hope he keeps with the game

Re: Toronto Wolfpack may pull out of Superleague : Tue Aug 18, 2020 7:17 am  

Perhaps Frank Spencer, aka Gavin Williamson could take over?

Mr. Worthington's exact quote was "We have been given multiple dates on multiple occasions by David Argylle as to when we will get paid and I have been let down every time"

A reality far removed from the Trolls saying he doesn't have the money.
