mr and mrs safe pair of hands bah humbug

Only Salford had a smaller loss than us.
Losses mean no tax bill and are not terrible if you have the cash to cover it. Depends why you have losses.
Debt that is far outstretched by the asset, and the asset generates money to service the debt

In previous years we had losses with no money to cover it so had to sell players
Previously we had loans with no assets
Previously we were on the brink of admin for long periods.

And previously we would not have even got a C grade with IMG.

I reckon if we balanced the "good things (pitch, stand etc)" that this BoD has done for us against the "Bad things (relegation)", I think the scales would tip in favour of the former. We can all look forward to possible future promotion, but I doubt whether we would have been able to afford the new infrastructure that we've acquired

One poxy stand isn’t going to make up for the absolute dross for the past two or three years.

Hopefully the takeover gets announced very soon.

TBH, Salford only posted a smaller loss because they don't pay £600,000 of their rent - they default and the council has to pay it for them.

If they paid their rent, there would be a further £600K in losses - well actually they would be bankrupt, but there you go!

Did someone on here say that they don't run all the teams that most other SL sides do?

Barring a divine intervention our club enters the championship next season , what is needed now from the club for the disillusioned fans is a statement of intent from club and new owner as to what their visions are for the club going forwards .I’m not talking of contracts and the likes but surely we have plans in place for every eventuality as tough as it is . For the longer a statement is forthcoming it just adds fuel to the fire of the conspiracy theorists that abound at our club

They can't really do that yet. We are not mathematically down.
Plenty of time for statements of intent.

I know that but there isn’t plenty of time as of next week if we lose to Leigh we are down, and statements should have been written for either eventualities and be in place to let the long suffering fans know exactly what is going to happen going forwards ,and In fact who will be leading the charge at the club . For far too long the fans have been kept in the dark and have been treated like second class citizens , do they not realise without us there is no club . A little bit of honesty will go a long way in my mind to gel the club and fans going forwards from this point
