So Bulls-Salford vital. If Bulls can get the result would put bulls only 5 points behind salford, with salford slipping to 12th. So really drags them into a dogfight. Which isn't pleasing at all..........
Time to mention again Phil Clarke tipping Salford this year to win the LLS. Massive LOL.'"
Did Phil Clarke ever say LLS? I was under the impression it was the GF. Still stupid, granted, but they are still in the mix at the moment. Kevin Locke will make a massive difference to that side, any side, he is that good a player. Not that I think they will win the comp like, just nowhere near relegation come the end.

Pretty sure it was LLS. I think I posted his list in the predictions thread at the season's start, such was my incredulity.

| Quote: Andy Gilder "They're exploring the legal options, which I presume would mean either the Court of Arbitration for Sport, or the High Court to challenge the legality of the decision.'"
If they did, they would need to go to C.A.S Taking Legal action against the RFL through the normal court system sees your RFL membership and as such ability to compete in RFL competitions suspended.
I think we are seeing the long slow death of RL in Bradford unfortunately. Odsal is far too big and far too expensive to bother playing in front of championship sized crowds, and unless you are Uncle Moneybags, then you certainly cant start trying to run an SL level academy, marketing or infrastructure as well as Odsal, and that before putting a team on the field. Odsal is too big and too useful a site to sit empty whilst the bulls recover. Its going as an RL venue.
Valley Parade is the only other option, but its still far too big for championship RL and would need a very very generous tenancy agreement.
Their squad is also one that is set up for SL, thats not to say it is an SL level squad, its clearly not, they are rubbish, but it is set up to be one, so will have some players on pretty good wages which are just unworkable on championship income and even their lesser players will be on better wages than championship players and it will take them a couple of seasons to rebalance the squad.
Marc Green has never pretended to be a saviour or fan desperate to get the Bulls back where they belong, he is a hard-nosed businessman who made the best decision for his investment. 1 or 2 or 3 years in the lower leagues on lower league income, with lower league crowds, lower league sponsorship etc and the associated losses there and i can't see him sticking around.

实事求是!: |
|
| Yep.
It's difficult to see, in the current set up, how the bulls can really exist outside super league, obviously they are struggling to exist in it. But with the drop in income from all avenues by going into the championship, that's going to hit them hard and they are already struggling.

| They will receive a parachute payment if I’m not mistaken; I expect the dulls to do a Castleford and “bounce back” on the first attempt since they will have an unfair advantage over their rivals. But I do hope I’m very wrong.

| Now the Bulls are taking the RFL to the High Court. This could be interesting.
Has to be resolved quickly as not much of the season left

| What next? If this latest appeal fails will we see them on Judge Judy?
For god's sake if they (the Bulls not any group of owners or directors) don't pay back the creditors why should they get any points back?
I assume that the appeal committee could only judge if the RFL rules had been applied correctly, and that the High Court can only rule on the legality of the rules and their application, and certainly not take a moral stance.

| Apparently their legal team think they have a very strong case.
Now where have we heard that before?

| Going to bring the game into disrepute for their own self interests. Even if they win an appeal they are still going down now. Why not just move on, protect the credibility of the sport, and take your punishment.
Any sympathy anyone had for the bulls will soon be lost.

| All the clubs in Superleague who still have to visit the Odsal dump this season, should IMO encourage their own supporters to boycott Odsal in protest. That will hit them in the pocket and hopefully send into admin again and hopefully this time out of business.

| Some absolute tosh has been said on these boards regarding the situation at Odsal . None of you would like to be in the situation that the Bulls fans are in . You most certainly wouldn't want to be subjected to the gloating from fans of other teams in such bad times .
I am not a fan of the Bulls . It makes me smile when they get hammered every week . BUT I could never say I hate them as a club or their fans .
I have a lot of sympathy for the supporters . I even put in a lot of effort to help out when they were desperate to raise funds to keep them going , and I find it disgusting that people can be so cruel to fellow RL supporters .
Show some class and stop the gloating . I wish them luck wherever they end up playing next season (unless they are playing the Falcons )
Rant over
