As some people have stated on this thread, if image rights are the reason we've been clobbered with this bill, then we're by no means alone, not that this justifies any action we may have taken (from an ethical point of view).

Did you read the bottom bit about players wages and overseas accounts.

think ours is simpler, and smaller!

i dont think image rights on any of our over performing superstars would amount to much!

you need one off superstars with big noses for that, allegedly!

what happened to the old fashion way, win / loss payment

maybe thats what we do and came a cropper cos we won and people didnt turn up mate???

in short trust jk!

the lack of support has been a big factor, I just hope John Huxley is going to be the pied piper and bring them in,

time to get the Trin PR machine up and working

He couldn't have asked for an easier start, could he?

Accentuate the positive
Eliminate the negative
Latch on to the affirmative
Don't mess with Mister In-Between

actually this is a big non story!
our assets are in excess of 4 million i would guess including players and we owe not less than 300k?????

NON STORY!!!!
wait for the other ones!!!, at other clubs

are we allowed to guess the clubs without getting in to trouble

You are the club accountant and I claim my overseas forum moderator image rights of 1p (OK, I know that's excessive, but you have to think big...)

Wire
Bradford
Saints
Cas
Leeds

would be my guesses, think i saw 5 other clubs being quoted.

Just a guess though.

Assets of 4 million.. why not use it for a new stadium?.

because it would not touch the sides and leave the club with no team?

if these clubs were to be rumoured as well Wires, saints and leeds would be strong enough to shrug it of , not so easy for bradford and cas

as Jonh said it wouldn't leave us much to play with and a bog standard stadium that wouldn't even be worth super league status

I'm away on holiday so missed this breaking news.

It's not good but am I missing something. We have major problems in so much as we owe HMRC a lot of money. The club has stated that we have agreed a repayment plan with them which is being met so whilst the situation is not as we would like it looks under control. Whats the problem and all this talk of winding up administration. If we fail to repay HMRC we will be wound up - that applies to any business who owes the Revenue but if we repay as agreed we will be fine.

Am I missing something, if so could someone enlighten me.

The main worry is how we have got into this postion. Does anyone know what the debt is- is it VAT, PAYE, Image Rights, Capital Gains on the sale of the Ground ?

I'll be surprised if we are the only Club in this position but we seem to be the one that seems to be singled out in the media - why ? or is it only us ?

We need a statement from the Club explaining how we got where we are and what we are doing to remedy the situation so as to stop all these rumours and steady the ship.

agreed. i've been reluctant to comment on here because i accept my ignorance in these matters. little bits of information which may be accurate or otherwise only serve to prolong the acrimony towards the club. a brief statement to fill in a few of the gaps without going into too much detail would be beneficial imo

If Cas had anything to do with off shore accounts and image rights it would surprise me with the player signings we've made. As for what's going on at Wakey though, it will all come out in the fullness of time and it might be a lot of money to pay out, but i can't see you going under because of this. See you next year.

looking forward to it

Dont worry Sandal everything is fine. As discussed by many in the know on here. Igonore what you have read in the papers and the scary words like HMRC, High court, winding up etc.

Our press officer will soon make a statement.
