    Patron's Trust

    Do you understand how a trust works? I will try to dumb it down for you. People put money into a fund. The money is held in the fund on trust for the Knights. The people can't take it back out for themselves - it has to be used for the benefit of the Knights. It is captured in the...

    Patron's Trust

    So in that case , hypothetically come the next board meeting, there is nothing to stop Tinkler running a full ticket of board members running on the agenda of him owning the club. They get voted onto the board and then he can buy the club - which by then will be debt free thanks to the...

    Patron's Trust

    Has anyone considered a vote of no confidence in the board may be the PATRONS TRUST best chance to get a fair hearing ? Just throwing it out there - a new board is not tarnished by the past. Karmawaves post spells out exactly that while ever Mr Tew and Burro are telling the story - the...

    Patron's Trust

    Quick Question - Will the Public Trust model need 75% approval as per Tinkler Deal? If so i cant see them obtaining this figure , maybe 60% at best. The propaganda war will begin from all angles but it will only take 1-2 high profile figures ( eg Chief etc ) backing the Tinkler Model and...

    11 A Side Trial This Weekend

    Logic behind the rule is to reduce the amount of "boring tries" from kicks...dont be surprised if it becomes a nrl rule next year in some form. Tells me the nrl research is telling them their "product" is becoming predictable.

    Knights target Taumata faces sack from Bulldogs - Newton back in Newie

    Besides that, since when does a development officer know more about a player signing than the CEO that signs the cheques? :lol: - Oh that's right, only in Newcastle... Right! Agreed , sounds like Burro was caught on the back foot and tried to come up with a politicians answer to the question...

    NRL to take SBW to Supreme Court

    slight tangent , but i wonder if it gets to the court if SBW & his legal team challenge the salary cap as a restraint of trade to get out of his contract? If we wins - would this mean all NRL Player Contracts ( including his) are illegal ?..Could open a can of worms for the NRL.

    Perfect opportunity for the NRL...

    If things dont change then the NRL will soon resemble the A-League , all the good players playing in Europe. SBW and Gasnier have shown the way for all young players to follow.

    Knights clearer on MacDougall's future than Mad Dog

    De Gois recieved a "very good offer " - Ricky Stuarts words. If we had money , i am sure Smith would have bought them by now. Fringe 1st graders is all we can expect.

    Brian Smith: Stop time-wasting - the referee saga is getting us nowhere

    Footnote to this article - Souths and Eels ( next 2 knights games ) are 2 of the LEAST penalised teams in the NRL.
