He’s always said he will sell if someone wants to make him an offer. The shares are actually worth very little but all those people have put hardearned in.
RW has not put money in to the club, far from it. He had taken hundreds of thousands out and all under the watchful eyes of Jack Fulton for very little in return.This is why we were a 2 bob outfit. Unfortunately we are now maybe a ten bob outfit thanks to tbe current BOD.
Without DP we would be nowhere near where we are now.
I believe CM has answered this on the next page but RW has loaned money to the club, and I believe it was at the same time as JF and also when Ryan McGoldrick did too but I could be wrong on that front. I was under the impression that he'd converted this loan to shares but I may be wrong on this account too (judging by the post on the next page).
Some may have a difference of opinion on RW and his time at the club but he cared enough to put his own money when it mattered, as have all the other shareholders. They didn't have to.
In the spirit of the final Blackadder episode - Goooodbyeee!

Dont be silly. They wont tell us that.
But if Zak ends up at wigan and gill leaves people will put 2 and 2 together obviously.

Leeds win the Grand Final and look to kick on.
Cas win the League at a canter and drop into self destruct mode, drawing attention to themselves for the wrong reasons.
What on earth is going on?

From how I see it... Gill sacked Zak, Powell wanted to keep him so the board sack Gill for loosing us an investment of 150 grand.
what doesn't kill me simply makes me...stranger.

Yep - that's how i see it. We will probably never get to find out officially and the club will paper over the cracks by giving us the sugar-coated version......something like.......Steve Gill retires, Zak moves on to Wigan for an undisclosed fee (zero) and we will be looking for a new FB for next year.

It would be far better for once to tell the honest truth its not the 1890s you cant hide things ,it would just make the club look more stupid when the full facts come out ...which they will
The measure of who we are is what we do with what we have

Two many people putting two and two together and coming up with 22 and trying to justify their reasoning with I heard from ............
All they are doing is giving Dave Nosey Parker column inches with his favourite quote "a source close to the club" yet if you read his column it is just a rehash of what is written on here.

Correct OCL, but it will be quite embarrassing when everything revealed. I hope Steve will carry on after what ever it is happened, and hope it is complete fabrication what I was told, but my source is always near the truth. Once again it is hearsay and I never believe till the full facts are revealed.
