Futtocks Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 Fingers crossed that this is a stable new ownership, and that Guildford is blacklisted from any involvement in RL from now on.

South Wakefield Sharks Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Does anyone know anything about this Jon Flatman? Is there anything to suggest that this is a good or bad transfer of ownership? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonM Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Does anyone know anything about this Jon Flatman? Is there anything to suggest that this is a good or bad transfer of ownership? Can't be worse than the previous chairman. He was a director at Hull and worked at Wakefield, loads of RL admin background. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LionelHurst Posted December 2, 2016 Author Share Posted December 2, 2016 Jon is bright able and educated. He was a fine player at my club Oxford Cavaliers in the mid '90s when it was voted Club of the Year. Darrell Griffin was in the same team. Jon had a leading role at Hull too. He knows and loves the game. Not sure though if he is funding or just fronting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
