I would think it would be standard TUPE rules, but looking at Rangers siutation just makes it confusing with them having the belief that players are in the wrong. They have threatened court action although I can't see how they would win the case with TUPE rules as I understand them. Not sure whether The RFL can influence it, they may turn round to the other clubs and say they won't register or allow clubs to sign players who are under contract for Bulls next year, highly unlikely though and I think it is safe to say we will lose a number of players this off season.

The Bradford Super Dome has a nice kind of ring to it or maybe the Bollywood Bowl

Not going to happen , those clubs along with Toulouse will have already refused to accept a 2 year only licence , stipulating a guaranteed 5 year tenure as the only option , thats why you are back in SL , staying there now will be the problem

I said it wouldn't [ilook[/i good. The [iperception[/i would be that if there was money available then maybe the buyout offer should have been higher and more compensation offered to creditors. How justified that might be is another thing altogether and would depend on details I don't have and TBH aren't that interested in.

Yeah a business man paying more than he had to for something. Yep that would make him look really good.
