So all in of this we have to conclude that at this time there is no evidence to suggest that Elstone has brought a single penny into the game despite being in the job over 2 years and on a allege salary of £400,000 plus his staffs money

Not only not brought any money in but wasted £400,000 a year on his salary & left & £750,000 debt for an "introduction" to a P.E firm on a wing & a prayer, who ....... who agrees a £750,000 finders fee for "deal or no deal" ???

Still, there's always the magnificent Papa Johns pizza deal to brag about !!!

And to think people criticised Nigel Wood with his running of the game. Over 2 million wasted on Elstone, PE and his staff.

"Brian McDermott, with a wry smile, nods when asked if he remembers a specific incident which made him realise he was a prick. 'I do', he murmurs."

He arranged the current TV deal which everyone is so upset we won't come close to matching.

Could be even more of a shock still to come.
Reported tonight in Rugby League Express.
It may be,repeat may be,that Derek Beaumont rode to the rescue!
Don't know the story - but if it has required Derek Beaumont to rescue the sport from the suicide of private equity,never,ever,will my gasted have been so flabbered.
This sport never fails to shock...

It didn't. Leeds and St Helens were always going to veto it.

Who suggested there should be contact?

If that were the case,why facilitate the first large pay out?

Be nice to gain a bit more information.

I enjoy the odd horror story...

His £400,000 a year would be better spent on the amateur game & referee training.
