Hull KR board to end Tony Larvin takeover talks
HULL KR are expected to officially call time on investment talks with businessman Tony Larvin after a deadline passed for him to provide an initial £5m cash injection.
The Mail understands a club statement will be made to finally bring the long-running matter to a close, and end uncertainty over Rovers' future ownership.
-
Pledged £15m: Tony Larvin in East Park, east Hull.
Larvin had pledged a total investment of £15m in time, but four months after first meeting club officials with his proposals, the funds have not arrived.
A deadline of last Friday passed without comment from either party, and although neither was willing to talk yesterday, the Mail understands KR will bring the matter to a close.

"what will happen if rovers lose dobson through injury or suspention?because you dont have anything else on yesterdays showing"...
As he's not injured or suspended it's a stupid question.
If I were you I'd be more worried about your mediocre full back, half back, off half and pack.
Bradford will win at a canter on Friday.”

“I did watch it, I was chuckling till Sunday morning.
You were never in the game, Leeds took time to click that's all.
As for your solitary try, that ball from Westerman could have gone anywhere, it was a pass of desperation from another mediocre player who cost you a fortune.
You were demolished.”
