Town haven't announced squad numbers yet but players signed on are :- Ross Ainley Jake Bradley Jake Carter Lucas Castle Rio Corkhill Alex Donaghy Jamie Doran Oscar Doran Callum Farrer Spencer Fulton Zarrin Galea Tobias Gibson Guy Graham Evan Lawther Braden Leigh Mason Lewthwaite Jude Lupton Callum Phillips Tuarae Rawhiti Grant Reid Stevie Scholey Jack Stephenson Tyce Walmsley Dom Weir Also potentially Levi Atiga - he has signed a contract but might not play

The administrator has to recommend the bid to the creditors. Any creditor who is owed more than 10% of the total debt can reject the proposal and call a meeting of all creditors to vote on it. Administrator can’t accept the bid until that meeting happens.

Other sources are saying the cost is $26m as they don’t receive any broadcasting revenue for days with no play. I guess that’s what happens when you don’t employ a groundsman anymore and instead have an Executive Manager of Turf

No, that’s a common misconception. His duty is to get the best outcome for the company’s creditors. That doesn’t always equate to the highest bid.

Doubt we could match what Newcastle are offering players now that York are bankrolling them.

The bogs at Gilford Park in Carlisle didn’t have a roof on. There was a classic piece of TV during a televised cup game where the crane mounted camera panned the ground at half time and settled on a lovely shot of the gents, including a chap squeezing one out in what he thought was behind the privacy of the cubicle door.

IMG points now take precedent, not league placing.

If, as is rumoured, this reincarnation of Salford retains the number 1 seeding in terms of Championship central funding distribution then it is a disgrace. Other clubs should refuse to play them if they do.

Yep, obviously they’ve never had any letters about it or penalty notices. And it clearly wasn’t visible on their online account on the HMRC portal which every business this size is required to have. And they’ve never wondered why they kept getting charged interest by HMRC. Their accountants must also have turned a blind eye to the fact that the liabilities in the accounts didn’t balance to the HMRC online account. There are liars, damned liars and RL clubs who owe HMRC.

Lets sign lots of expensive players and not pay HMRC seems to be the default business plan for a lot of clubs. No doubt it'll be an administrative error.

How about the other part of his post ? "Rugby League - Not Likely...."

......Parklife......

Not just a fan, he was on the 3 person management committee (along with Paul King) of the CBS which handed control to the imposters who brought the club down. Due diligence obviously not his strong point.
