While I would not want or expect the club to say we are talking to xyz and negotiating with abc but they could put out an announcement of what is happening to a point instead of leaving several hundred fans thinking and worrying about the club and its future. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cue Ball Posted Sunday at 01:18 PM Report Share Posted Sunday at 01:18 PM Fingers crossed that the news about ownership, whenever it may come, isn’t that there isn’t an owner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonyd Posted Tuesday at 09:44 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 09:44 PM Ok a simple question for the club, If the current situation is not resolved by January (the conference) will the promoters / management team bring the Tigers to the tapes in 2026 but with the club remaining up for sale (and possible be sold during the 2026 season) OR will the current Promoters / management put the club on ice until a buyer (hopefully) will be found? (Assuming there is a premiership League in 2026) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TigerIain Posted yesterday at 12:56 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 12:56 AM 2 hours ago, IainB said: In their "for sale" statement it said the current promotion had run their last top flight meeting At the time that was announced, there was still 1 NDL match to be raced, but the Tigers season was finished. I think that Steelers match is why it refers to last top flight meeting had been run, rather than hinting at Tigers going CL. In my interpretation of the 'for sale' announcement it is assumed that a buyer would be found and no mention of what happens if not. Although (at the risk of annoying Ipswich fans again) it would devalue the club if the current promotion publicly stated that they would not run in 2026 if not sold. Anyway, let's hope that whilst there is nothing public, that something good is coming together both for Sheffield and the Premiership 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if there are three leagues next year, will any of them genuinely claim that accolade without incurring the interest of the respective Trading Standards services?

old bob at herne bay Posted 23 hours ago Report Share Posted 23 hours ago You cannot run a club in the league with no owners !!!!! Who would put up the guarantee bond ? without an y knowledge that they could finish a season ?? What self employed rider would ride for a club with no owners ???/ chances of not getting paid HIGH. Total nonsense 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
