Plans for a quick sale of Engage Super League club Wakefield Trinity Wildcats took a new twist today when one of the prospective owners pulled out of a deal.
Yorkshire businessman Steve Parkin, who made an unsuccessful attempt to take over Leeds United Football Club six years ago, was thought to be in the running to buy the Wildcats once they went into administration.
A hearing to appoint Batley-based insolvency experts O’Hara and Company as administrators was due to take place in court in Leeds this morning and it was hoped to at least agree a sale of the club before Wakefield start the new season at the Millennium Stadium tomorrow.
“We were hopeful that a sale could be agreed today but the interested party’s solicitor contacted our solicitor at quarter to five yesterday to say they weren’t going to proceed,” said O’Hara spokesman Simon Weir.
“We are talking to other interested parties but that person seemed to be in the driving seat. Subject to us being appointed as administrators, we would hope to speak to him to see if we can rekindle his interest.”
Another local businessman, Andrew Glover, has also expressed interest in taking over the Wildcats.
Wakefield applied to go into administration to avoid a winding-up petition brought by HM Revenue and Customs over an unpaid tax bill thought to be in excess of £300,000. That hearing, due in the High Court nine days ago, was adjourned for a fortnight.

| Looks like Parkin is out of the running. I must say that i am disappointed but it looks like it will be Andrew Glover taking over and he will have mine and i am sure the rest of the fans support.

| A quarter to five phonecall is called TACTICS to gain the upper hand in any negotiations. O'Hara's fell for it by announcing it.

| Lot of mind-chess being played here, I think, otherwise they would have just given Mr Glover the keys. Black rook takes white knight. Your move.

| Doesn't the delay just do more public damage to the club though???
And do we have the funds to operate bearing in mind we only have two home games before the end of march and they are salford which is never the biggest crowd and warrington which is on sky?

| Must be a press release from someone, where the report has appeared it’s been the exact same wording.

Probably a story filed by the PA, and used by many websites.
