I assume they've asked their biggest supporter Nige to pledge towards the £500,000?

In the early 2000's I was working in Bradford and had to pass Odslum every day. Every day I had the pi$$ taken out of me for being a Halifax fan. Every day I had it shoved down my throat about the 'Bulls'. Every day during the 2002 and 2003 season I was reminded about how crap Halifax were.

Every day I reminded them that one day they too would face financial problems as the club was not built on solid foundations. They were a club doing well but not building for the future. They were a club who one day would face trouble. I told them to enjoy their time at the top and come back to me in 10 years time and we'd talk again.

Well my Bull loving friends - as a Halifax fan I am having a right good chuckle.

As a rugby league fan I hope they can survive this. They are after all a proper rugby league club. We'll maybe see you in the Championship soon.

Wonder if our attendances will go up now the Bulls are going pop? Will the glory hunters return? Bull power!

Seems us, "flat cappers" were right all along about the reasons the RFL bought odslum. Poor Bulls fans believing the hype!

Wonder if Adeybull is still gnawing on his bone over on the VT?

She carries on through it all...... She's a Waterfall:



"I will not have my club associating with the likes of Featherstone Rovers"! (Caisley. c 1995).

Blow on my big fat ginger botty Caisley you arrogant sod. (and yes I realise Caisley has nothing to do with this currebt Bulls set up... those some of the current BoD will argue they are now paying for his administration way bach when)!

It says "We just put the clubs that we want into Super League"

Nothing more needs to be said. The whole process needs reviewing and applying properly or canning.

The RFL - they need to go but please no Hetherington taking over

5 clubs received a lower grade license than the bulls, how are their finances looking?

Annoying that our club gets savaged in the press by the RFL for having "speculative" financial projections in its licence application.

How "specualtive" were Bradford's? And why didnt they get the same treatment as us?

Mike Riley must be fuming!!!

Sad to see but shows what a load of bullcrap SL is and the myth that licences would stop this. Inside 18 months thats Wakey in admin, Crusaders bust and Bradford on the edge. You can bet others like London, Cas and Salford are not in good shape neithet. Sod SL I dont want my club to be part of this lieing circus. SL is not for our club and we shouldnt ruin what the hard work jas achieved. SL will ruin Fax and Fev.

Well done Nigel Wood. You ignored ALL the danger signs at Fax. You managed to push around 2000 fans away fron the club and nearly ruined us. You arrogant git have refused to accept the large part you played. You buggered off just before the truth came out. Now you are doing the same to the whole game. People are fed up. You have pushed clubs into debt like Crusaders where you knew since 2009 the club owed players money and ignpred all the warning signs. You must have known how bad the problem was at Bradford when the RFL bought the ground. The game is in a mess yet you just refuse to see it. I hope you go soon before you destroy our clubs and game beyond repair

kcab sfrawdder Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done But he with a chuckle replied That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried. So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin On his face. If he worried he hid it. He started to sing as he tackled the thing That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg

My argument at Leigh as well

Time for the Championship clubs to sit down and find another way via collaberation

If the RFL had taken on a sponsor who paid some money then I guess the Bulls debts would be slightly less than they are. IF the Bulls 10,000 season ticket holders pay £100 then problem sorted, yet that is twice what they paid for their season tickets, so was this a way of getting in quick money for a product they may not be able to provide for the full season. Can they be sued for not providing this product?
