Ditto Leigh and Fev if they have an ounce of common sense

In fact a sensible course of action would be a meeting early doors next week and a collective statement, refusing to contribute

Actually, if i was a Fax Director i would apply.

I'd deliver the application dressed as a clown on a unicycle, ride up to Red Hall and crash into the building, whereupon my £2.50 lever arch file containing the application would smash up and the a4 pages would blow away and flutter around the grounds.

I would then blow into a tiny trumpet and run for the ground's exit in the style of Groucho Marx.




That's effectively the same circus act that Bradford have brought to the game over the last 6 months.

What ever hapened to the 3 Stooges Caisley Gary and Mo.??

It's a paper exercise again. We all know the outcome before it happens - they may as well just come straight out and say the dull are safe. But it would be funny if the directors of the 3 championship clubs just turned round to the RFL and said 'you can stick your super league where the sun don't shine fellas!'

As I suggest, a joint public statement , just stating that all three clubs do not wish to participate in the process

But if one of our clubs was give the nod for a two year stint in sl and the chosen club was to run with a championship squad, be it on full time contracts for those two seasons,think what could be done with the money that you would bank from the sky deal and increased gate recipts?

Except it is all just a ' sham ' john, a credibility exercise similar to the one Fax were tricked into entering last year

It isnt worth it, time for some collective common sense and integrity to be shown by somebody in this corrupt pathetic sport known as proffesional RL

I whole heartedly agree with you but i can imagine the clubs looking at it that way.
They might even think they have a chance of staying in there after 2014 haha

I agree it is a sham - who in their right mind would invest in the Bulls without already knowing which league you are playing in .... but if we do not enter the race (same for Leigh and Fev) the RFL will just turn round and say you had the chance.

What we need are the remaining 13 SL members and the RFL to grow a back bone just like the SPL did with Rangers ......

PS bearing in mind the Bulls have been playing reasonably well what the hell happened tonight, after they are given hope they get murdered by what as been a faultering Hull side in recent weeks

Playing ' games ' is what we do on the pitch, thats where they should remain

Starbug ....

I have read a lot of things that you have posted on the Bulls page and in general agree with a lot of your views on rugby but sometimes you just have to play the silly RFL games as they make the rules .... I find it unlikely that 3 championship clubs will release a joint statement so you have to play the game.

If you join in the circus at least at the end of it you can complain when they make the wrong decision again - as much as I would love P and R I just cannot see it ...

If it was about playing games and great rugby why are Widnes in SL (No dig intended as they played the RFL game and met the criteria)

Whilst we all know that this is a joke and just a way of the RFL looking like they are in charge, Halifax and the other clubs must apply, as if they think they have a chance. If they do not apply then the RFL come out of this looking better than they should, they can say without it being a lie “Bradford’s bid was the best bid we received” If the other clubs apply for a licence, and Bradford get the nod, how can they not look like the set of cheating, manipulating good for nothings that we know they are.

Two minds.

The RFL and Dulls can just do one and not use us in our games.

Apply but insist everything is out in the open after. Who knows, that way we may find Big Nige and Banging Blake with their pants down!

Freddie! , dont lose your resolve, you know, You KNOW, how this will pan out, you were used then abused last year, is that what you want again ?

Having said that I also know how the BOD at Leigh will react to this, probably nievely thinking that the RFL actually give a stuff, I think they will apply
