Part of me would love to hear it was some billionaire sheikh who has suddenly found a passion for Rugby League and happened to share a few coca colas with Rohan Smith on his jollies last year.
A bigger part of me expects it to be one of the same "All bluff, no stuff" types from last time, like Lamb or the three clowns that did the hokey cokey with the ownership.

We already know it's not a new player. And to be quite honest, none of the previous potential investors filled me with any confidence whatsoever, with the exception of perhaps the Texan oil guy.

| Quote RickyF1="RickyF1"Well today is the day. Will they get paid??'"
I thought it was fairly obvious that they will all get paid today.
The question is who is paying them? Because either way the money is coming out of the RFL's account. Plan A is Mark Green puts the correct amount into the RFL account, who then pay the players. Plan B, not mentioned anywhere, but going on what happened in 2014 & 2012, Plan B is the RFL will just pay everyone and then decisions will be made over the weekend.

I'm not sure I'd mind so much if it turned out to be the ex City guys. They seemed to do a decent job of running City, and then offloaded it when they realised they couldn't fund it as much as it needed any more. However you worry a little that it was mainly because the fella was a big City fan. Would he have the same desire to run a club he doesn't have as much affection for?
Other than that, Mrs Koukash (essentially a front for the Doc himself, who presumably isn't allowed to own two clubs or something along those lines) is the next best option. The family may be bat sh*t crazy, but at least they actually have some money. Things might become a bit of a circus, but at least we might not have WUPs popping up every few months.
If it's Lamb again, I despair. The bloke came across as nothing but talk and I don't think he's a better option than what we have already.
If it's any combination of Mark Moore, Ryan Whitcut, Omar Khan etc., they can count me out completely.

I was able to shoot a secret video of the meeting just after they signed the RFL papers, and here is your exclusive viewing

Jewish owner doesn't pay the players, so you bring out the Hitler videos.
You're all class, FA.

Haha brilliant. Particularly liked the comparison to The Office, you've lost your jobs but the good news is I've been promoted.
Let's hope it's good news today and it can all be put to bed till same time next month

| Hmm, funny, but also brings back a bit of anger because the RFL already bought our family silver ( the lease) for a song 4years ago when we were in a similar distressed state just to cover the secret loan they had made to us and suddenly found themselves exposed. That still annoys me, even now
