| Quote Trinity1315="Trinity1315"errr... because MC has put a lot of his own money in to the club!
I think it only reasonable to ask any prospective owner what he intends to do with it!'"
And maybe, just maybe, he actually cares what happens to the club?

| M C did say he didn't want to elaborate on the reasons why the working relationship had become frosty and I am almost sure he went on to say that B S may have a different view. I'm of the opinion that both of them seem to have reached a stale mate and if B S remained we still wouldn't know the frosty relationship excited . Because of M Cs willingness to sell it would appear an offer was made and for what ever reason not accepted. Now if that conversation ever took place who knows but B S departed and started his silly Facebook comments .B S would have been better in my view to provide an interview to a R L publication and fully put his views forward if a story excited . Anyway it's another crazy event in the Trinity history

| Quote Pound 4 Wrighty="Pound 4 Wrighty"Or could it be that the person who was suggesting he would like to buy it was a little delusional (some may say crazy) and on further inspection, didn't have the finances in place to back up what he was suggesting??
Rather than spending his time coming up with crackpot ways of buying the club, id have preferred him to look at ways for us to win games of rugby. 2 from 14 against Super League opposition (i would imagine the for/against doesnt make for good reading!) doesn't lie and is suddenly getting forgotten due to the garbage that he is spouting on social media. Have we really improved any during his time? There were brief glimpses, but defensively we are still appalling.
My take on it all is that BS assembled the current squad and has now realised it simply wasn't good enough and has got out before damaging his reputation further.
He can carry on blaming whoever he wants, but he knew the budgets and chose how to spend what he had. Something in my opinion he did badly!'"
Very good post.  I wonder if we had won say 3 or 4 out of the first 5, instead of winning one against HKR who actually beat us on tries, whether he'd still be here??

| And just maybe another part of the equation in regards BS wanting to buy and MC not wanting to sell is things happening in the background re an offer to purchase the ground back

| Just how many football and rugby league club owners actually recoup their investments these days. Most of them have a love for the game and enough readies to be able to afford losing the odd million or two. I would imagine that MC was quite relieved that the previous owner wasn't too eager to take back all that he was personally owed.

Wasn't it the case that it was part of the deal that MC & CB would only take it on if Glover agreed to write off his debt baring in mind it was on his watch that the situation got so serious?

| Agreed SC, but the point that I was making was that not all club owners come out with what they invested as MC seems to be determined to do. True, it was under Glover's ownership that things did get a bit serious, but put that down to naivity and possibly recklessness on his and others' behalves.

| I'm not his biggest fan but without Carters intervention (and whatever his motives) we wouldn't have a club to support - however crap we are!
Have to give the guy some slack for that. Surely?

| This all sounds like the tale I was told about 4 weeks ago and I thought just another rumour.I was told the reason why things got frosty cos mc said yes bs went away and put things in place and mc changed his mind and said no.

Whoa! Steady on, there are plenty more options before you have to stoop lower than a snakes testies!
Think an England RU shirt comes before a Whinos shirt.
