NBL require more info from Blaze

Anyone know where the list is for who has paid and who hasn't ? A lot of talk about it but nothing confirmed.

I know for fact that:

Cairns - Cairns Regional Council are the guarantor (just renewed for the next 3 years end of last season after the local election)

Townsville - Townsville Regional Council as with Cairns ""

Wollongong - corporate guarantor and sponsor of the club

The other clubs there is nothing listed anywhere

Apparently the Blaze are done (if you believe what is posted on Twitter)...

RT: @rangaMITCH: No more Gold Coast Blaze. They will not be in the NBL competition next year.


and about 30 secs after this was posted, I saw this:
RT: @ChrisGoulding43: Stick a fork in it!!!!!


UPDATE:
RT: @JasonCadee5: Crazy the blaze are done!! Glad I got to be part of a club with so many great people! Hopefully they get it together and will be back on a
RT: @JasonCadee5: In a few years!! 8 team comp is going to get tight next year! Going to be very very competitive and alot of fun!! #36ers

RT: @hoopdiary: It's official, the Gold Coast Blaze have been "shut down" and will not be in the 2012/13 NBL competition. Looks like now an 8 team league.


Until I see an official announcement from the NBL or GC Blaze officials, I remain skeptical given the statement released earlier today.

I agree with Natwhereyouat but I would call them the South Queensland Blaze.

I say Merge the Blaze with the Bullets, South QLD Bullets. Split the games between the Gold Coast and Brisbane.

League saves face (somewhat) by saying the Blaze have not folded but were just merged. They also get to introduce another capital city team in the league. Don't see why not..?

nbl.com.au, and boy is it ugly.

I really hope the NBL dont pay sportal for the mediocre product they receive.

BA is giving them every opportunity to survive cause the other GM's want them to survive.
