Shame how its all turned out over there. Deprived Superleague entry and then the Bulls steal all the gimmicks (and fans) and they have never recovered'"
...at least we never stole their main players from which they have never recovered...all the Bulls did was copy a good idea. As anyone else could have done - they had no monopoly on it. And I have not met anyone who used to be a Keighley fan who became a Bulls fan, and I live much nearer to Cougar Park than to Odsal. Now was there anything constructive you wanted to say? |

You're pretty much right on all counts Adey.
Keighley to Bulls is a highly unlikely transition, somewhat akin to Cas Till I Die or Disco turning up at Headingley with a season ticket, Rhinos shirt and an I love Keith Senior tattoo. |

Shame Keighley's not in South Wales, they'd be getting money thrown at them by the RFL.

Yes, but theyre not. They're in an RL heartland, they have less excuse for failing than a club in an expansion area.
How much money have the RFL thrown at Celtic? |

Come on Garry, if you're reading this, get your chequebook out, write the figure £20,000 and get some Keighley players signed up.

No wonder they've not survived when those who live closer to Cougar Park than Odsal turned their back on them. |

Aye, if only Keighley had retained Darryl Powell and Darren Fleary, they would have been a powerhouse dominating the game with their 4,000 capacity stadium and fickle fanbase by now.
Instead of which Leeds took their biggest earners off their wage bill and wrote them a cheque for £20k to prevent them going into administration right there and then.
It wouldn't have mattered how many times Keighley would have won the NFP with the playing squad they had, without a ground move and significant outside investment they would never have got into SL. To portray Leeds as being responsible for the decline of the club as opposed to officials who spent money they didn't have chasing a dream that would have killed them is revisionism Stalin would have been proud of. |

No you stole one of our main players from which you may never recover.
