You drank the coolaide. Pal, stop believing the trotted out line that the Penns are tipping in money. They have got back every cent and then some through the sale of the leagues club asset. The NRL has always covered most of the players wages and If they aren't smart enough to be able to generate enough income to sustain the club through other streams of revenue they should walk away and allow someone with some real business accumen to run and own it, not some family that have lived off the huge sale of one business 20 odd years ago for the last 20 odd years. I honestly believe if the Penns put a reasonable price tag on the club there would be a suitable buyer found in no time flat, no problem at all. The grant from the NRL covers players wages and another million for administration of the club with a salary cap on football ops, so if they cant make it work with that kind of support then they are clearly not apt at running any business and should give it away. Anthony from URM would be the first guy I would ask to buy the club, he has the right personality and business savvy and really loves the club. The club needs an owner that would push his ego a side for the good of the club and engage positively with the MWRLFC and the fans to generate much needed goodwill and support, winning the hearts and minds of not only Manly supporters but also the NRL, instead of fighting a toxic war with every person involved with the real Manly Warringah club and the NRL. These idiots have been a cancer at that club from the very day they bought into it and the proof is in the pudding, because as soon as they took full ownership the club after blaming all the earlier problems on others the club has dived into freefall and had its worst period since 1947 including the NE debacle and their answer is to once again blame fans. They are scum and need to be steam cleaned off the Manly club. They didn't buy the club outright because they loved it, they bought it because they are corporate bullies who couldn't stand other factions pushing a fan based and love of the club agenda.
