haha by any chance do you believe it when people say they chop peoples hands off when they steal? go to most indian restaurant in the uk and you can order a beer with a beef rogan josh. money comes before religion even here in dubai people drink more than they do back home and eat a bacon barm in the morning.

Well said Wheels !

I think you've been had mate.

Ref dubairl.
I think you will find most Indian people are Hindu,a vast difference between the Muslim faith. Also a fair section of hindus do not beef. Some so called Indian restaurants in the uk are in fact Bangladesh . Please don't think I am being pedantic. Anyway the food dished up in all these restaurants is by and large spot on.

No beer on the terraces would be an excellent place for most rugby grounds to start.

The bottom line for me is that we need Bradford Bulls (or whatever new name they may have to adopt) in the super league as unlike many of the current super league clubs they command huge support and I realise having made that comment that support often comes from success which Bradford haven't had a great deal of in the past few years but they remain a well supported club. All that said the SL competition would would be a weaker competition without Bradford in it, the revenue at all SL clubs reduce through their non-involvement as their fans do travel especially to Headingley, therefore whatever they can do to help the club through this period should be welcomed and applauded.

Im sure the fans of london,keighley and halifax wont give a flying about the bulls after they were shafted by them.
what goes around comes around

i was making the comparision i know the difference between islam and hinduism, i think we are misunderstanding each other here lol. hindu by rights shouldn't eat beef at all and most of them here are veggies, but the indian restaurants in the uk aren't even close to proper indian food (north or south india), you cant find a good chicken korma here any where its more traditional indian food, as the indians here are the majority.

Ref dubair.
Well played I think we are both singing of the same hymn sheet.
I am a frequent visitor to New York all the expats out there crave 'english Indian type food' if you understand my drift. The majority of Indian style restaurants in new York are even less authentic than their English counterparts.

another culinary exchange.
My son goes out to India two or three times a year on business .
I always say whilst you were there did you go out for an English . For some strange reason he does not think that funny!!

The Kumars at Number 42. Classic sketch. Fantastic even.

Don't think this takeover will come to anything personally. Worth looking at though if no one else is interested though but think the debt and everything else that comes with it is too big a risk for anyone to buy them out!

Isn't all this historical debt going to get written off though, especially if they get liquidated and this ABC group buy them for hardly anything and start afresh?

I know it's all complexed stuff and whilst I want to see the Bulls survive, to my eyes at the moment it seems as if;

• they are getting rid of all their debts
•starting as a new company with their historical debt wiped out
•not losing any star players??
•will stay in SL
•Are going to try and make sure they get the lease back from the RFL otherwise they will pull out?

And the only 'punishment' from the RFL will be a 4-6 point deduction that in the grand scheme of things is pretty incidental. They'll probably still be able to make 8th even with a deduction

I know some/all of this might be a somewhat over simplistic view but without knowing all the ins and outs it how it comes across to me

Nope, it was from 'Goodness Gracious Me'.
