It's a little like wrestling a gorilla. You don't quit when you're tired. You quit when the gorilla is tired.

    Hardly a rat - a well meaning company caught up in a maelstrom

    It would be good if there was a system for these types of sponsors to be able to divert and contribute to proven development squads

    Just a turn of phrase. A rat will realise a boat is sinking before its crew will.

    I applaud them for walking away from the RSNT shambles.

    I didn't realise they were a sponsor... so for me this is the only, and perhaps the best possible, publicity they'll get from the whole arrangement.

    A convenient reduction in expenditure for them?, as they're heavily into solar energy. That's a sector that's tanking!
    AcelorMittal sold their share of the company recently.
    Remember that you are an Englishman and thus have won first prize in the lottery of life.
