| Quote Starbug="Starbug"Well a line has most definatley been drawn in the sand, and none of us can expect to be invited over it, so what to do about it? , well apparently the Championship chairmen now have a ' pre ' meeting before the council or APC meetings start, but are they seriously going to all agree to a united course of action?
No chance
It requires all clubs to state they will not be submitting an application to enter SL until the governing body start to apply rules and attitudes equally to all
But they wont, partly because the governing body ( Mr Wood ) is a vindictive organisation, that will take any dissent personally, and dish out retribution personally as well
RL is becoming an absolute joke'"
Now that would be bold BUT do you really think Fat Controller will be bothered? No it will make it even easier for him to keep the status quo

| The latest "rumor" in the never ending saga from the Bfd Bulls forum is that Bradford stay in SL but receive a reduced amount of money each month from sky 2012/13 to appease creditors etc.....and wait for it .....other clubs can apply for the Bulls SL franchise.(Would you it, another fair and open due dilligence process on SL franchise application)
Its quite "simples" he says in a rather Brendan Hill style sqeaky voice ....we keep those rude boy Campionship clubs like Fev, Fax and Leigh, nice, quiet and controlled by inferring the future potential of a place in the SL promised land. Those at the bottom end of SL have to do what we say because they are frightened to death of loosing their licence. Those at the top we know arent right bothered. We have at last got the administrator out of the way, HMRC get the buyout fee but to make sure it looks half decent for other creditors we hold back some of the sky money and hey presto it means we have got some interest to cover the cost of us buying the lease! The Bulls are still in SL so the lease is now back up to top buck, If the consortium want to buy it back in a year or so from us its double our money time!
Fantastic now lets concentrate on more important things in life... (Allegedly says the fat controller as another deliciously large Melton Mobray pie is eaten in one bite....Oh sorry I missed those Championship crumbs he says not being able to resist a sly grin.... as the bald headed giants very large thumb reaches out and squashes them flat...... )

That would be the money that is currently paying their team to make the play offs , its a good job they are still in SL or they would have been paying back their ' advance ' for several years in the Championship

| They couldn't manage spending the money they got from Sky as it was. How is this going to work? Less money?
Oh my god ..................... i've just realized. The "fans" may have to pay a realistic price to watch the Bulls (which in my view is actually only what they're paying now) instead of the "bums on seats let's go bust" price that they have been charging them.
Cretins. All of them.

Yes but these are ' mega rich ' people , they are paying £ 150 K for an ' iconic , world famous ' RL club  , that should go a long way with debts of up to a million a year

| Yawn...................
Had enough of the whole sorry affair and all the other laughable bits that have come up since. The RFL/Sky spin- doctors must be in overdrive now -another success for SL and the franchising system.Looks like Fev are now the latest to be strung along -with us and Leigh- as they have been given asurances they won't have to link to a SL club the latest news. So Fev you can get your stadium sorted, sort out your own junior section and then apply to give our franchise system some credibility before we find another reason not to let you in to our closed shop quango. Sound familiar Fax/Leigh fans?
Yawn.........................
PS good luck to all clubs in Champioship play off's-should be a cracking competition this time.Fax will have to be at their best to get to the final this time!

| I class Barrow, Haven, Town, Leigh, Oldham, Rochdale, Fax, Fev, Batley, Sheffield, Keighley, Dewsbury and Swinton as a good break away comp. The SL tie ups will only be of interest to the dead clubs of Hunslet, York, Gateshead, Skolars, South and North Wales and the new boys in C1.
Break away, and do it now - they are fooked if we do. If my club accepts a tie up then I have walked from the game. We must force change together.
