Having previously expressed my view of sympathy for all your fans and players and redundant staff who in my view desrve a medal for carrying on helping out I will now give my reasons as outsider my thoughts on why folk and other clubs are turning against the club.

Clearly based on what the rfl stance on conditional offers being unacceptable, in particular regarding the licence guarantee whether it be just this season or beyond I believe the rfl are correct on this.

It would appear to me the ABC crew and others clearly are not getting the message on this issue. If they genuinely have the long term intersts of the club as a whole they should make it clear that they are not asking for licence guarantee this way it will put the rfl under pressure to say what the obstacle is.

Regarding the secret loans and lease etc surely any organisation councils or otherwise have to be seen at least covering all eventualities bearing in mind the lack of proper contracts regarding deliverance on westfield project, perhaps they got fingers burnt and are ensuring they do not this time, just a thought.

Personally I am fed up as outsider of this dragging on so god knows how it must be for those with stake in club emotionally. It is this that I feel is alienating folk along with fact the Bulls are no different to any other rugby league club in that they should not receive preferential treatment as is the perception.

No club is or should be bigger than the game and the rfl and clubs should be brave enough to make the tough call and remove licence now and deal with expunging results etc its far better integrity of game is maintained rather than this messing about, scottish football took a decision which the rfl should do also if conditions to offers are still being made.

As for statements like Super League needs the bulls or indeed other individual clubs is a myth and wrong, past glories are exactly that the past.

Other clubs must and should be given chance to shine when clubs fail to meet standards in place no matter how it happens.

Surely its time for rfl to sort this now and inquests into who knew what and what happened can then start in earnest.

As stated earlier the fans etc have my sympathy but its time to end this now.

The problem with the leak that ABC have offered £1.5m for the lease is that it has supposedly come from a source within the ABC consortium. They are hiding behind a name, why don't they reveal themselves if they really have the welfare of the Bulls as their main priority. Also we get one snippet that they offered more than the RFL paid for the lease, is this cash up front or drip fed. Are they going to continue as Bradford Bulls and try to settle with creditors so they keep their existing franchise, or do they only want the club debt free and set up as a newco which then means they don't have a franchise for SL.

If it is the latter, that may be why the RFL wont give guarantees about SL licence

Fully agree the onus is on the RFL to enter a negotiation period with the parties concerned and reach an agreement or end support by affirming no conditional offers and liquidate now. The stance of the RFL to keep support going through advance payments etc., but not entering into meaningful negotiations to facilitate a sale sends a very mixed, confused signl in my book!="Surely its time for rfl to sort this now and inquests into who knew what and what happened can then start in earnest.

As stated earlier the fans etc have my sympathy but its time to end this now.'"

Apologies if my comments offended, but whereas I can understand journalists associated with the Bulls struggling to get information, it is surprising given the seeming polarisation of the SL clubs views that leaks haven't occurred from other places where journalists have strong relationships.

That's easy then! Glad I watched the beach volleyball highlights instead

Not happy at any time to see poor performances due to lack of effort but I know what you mean.
Perhaps this is why the RFL are taking the stance they're taking, they haven't forgiven us for unloading McBanana onto them

Apologies accepted mate.

Those supporters that listen to my broadcasts at the games will know - that I've diligently covered every angle of this sorry charade via interviews from Nigel Wood, Blake Solly, Simon Foster, members of the RL press and the closest person to all of this - Ross (who has provided some fantastic analysis).

While it is true that the Super League clubs have broken into groups with differing opinions, on what should or shouldn't happen to the Bradford Bulls Super League license.

It's my belief that their chosen stance should be confidential and not released into the public domain.

Here we go then. Squeaky bum time!

Sorry I don't know Ross's surname (T&A reporter) - He replied to Martyn saying every club bar the Bulls has been invited?!

That is correct Chris.
