I thought he was challenging a 'lie' if it wasnt then go for it JD - i) The Press must take care not to publish inaccurate, misleading or distorted information or images, including headlines not supported by the text. ii) A significant inaccuracy, misleading statement or distortion must be corrected, promptly and with due prominence, and — where appropriate — an apology published. In cases involving IPSO, due prominence should be as required by the regulator.

Not being familiar with what the 'rules' are inside RL but we never shared minutes outside the owners for our 6 weekly board meetings. I certainly dont get the minutes from any company shares I own

What POWERS does he have - influence of course but a minority one

Using this extreme analogy, then that builder would know the issues and you can decide who fixes them. In the mean time that builder isnt charging you for his advice. Bit like poacher/gamekeeper or former addicts educating folk on the perils of drug abuse

How do you challenge any person who states untruths about you or your business - especially a Journalist. If John is posting facts then he can carry on and Beaumont looks a #####.

In Haste, you think this has just materialised and there hadnt been a build up ??

You can create a title of God but if he has no decision making power it doesnt really matter - that is the place Wood is in, knows the structures, processes, cultures and its gaping faults so again seems a logical short term fix whilst the issues are dragged into the open and a positive solution is implemented.

Did JJB's role with the RFL lead to a Leeds bias, as he was paid by both?

Are RL fans really that commercially inept as to think the sale of Salford Rl wasnt a biproduct of the land and not the other way. MY spider sense says the land was discounted by whatever the clubs debts were by the council to allow them to wipe their hands of the hole they had dug.

Woody is back also

Amones back

You don’t sell owt when at its lowest value

It was a billy bs project, fur coat no knickers at a time of the honeymoon. It will all come out in the wash

Correct me please

Pocket change. Trust they don’t give you any authority

Lost me there, if we got £12m pa more then owner £madness isn’t needed - can we get £12m from the recent people or do we need new people to do so. The owners think the latter. Time will tell.

Tell me you dont understand any real world business without telling me you dont understand private business fundamentals

RU is getting about 4x our tv income, Ice Hockey - is it still played but the TOP clubs run at sub £1m pa squad, average contract £30k pa, basketball - has a salary cap of about £250k. Carry on scratching

Reimagining Rugby League Presentation – MEDIA_27Sep2022.pdf for those who like to read complete bullpoop without targets, ownership or reality. I am sure a good back slapping exercise was carried out by all the non producers over this. This was also in the IMG honeymoon period - my grandkids could have done this. The follow up was about how jumping in front of a bus can hurt

Which other major team sport has similar costs and so little funding?

and that is why the RFL are perceived to be so inept

I am all for never reviewing anything, avoiding any change and not looking to grow - are you a Labour MP?

Absolutely fantastic and written to sell for a change - ie the best since was only 3 years ago so the wording was to sell. We obviously did a great job of monetarising the 2022 peak, didnt we - how much did we get again as I cant find it. BTW I have suggested paying my employees in media hits as its far more valuable than cash in bank. Get yer yeds out of your arriss's and understand the problem is lack of cash that requires huge external charity for clubs to exist. We already know the RFL and RL Commercial had luvv all to do with attendances and Vegas, the clubs/fans made that happen. So again the BIG question - how do clubs survive until we can get the cash in from all these FACTS.

You don’t know who has driven it, you are assuming as I am. What if it was driven by a number of clubs of which 2 agreed to put their heads above the parapet ? My assumption is that 2 clubs would not start the crusade unless many had expressed discontent which would explain the level of support behind it. In my significant experience that is what happens in an owner meeting

You missed out in your opinion - to others it’s not, and others don’t know
