Quote: martinwildbull "being a bit more cynical than the usual suspects have, the story "Bulls completely and utterly Reject unwelcome bid for star centre Lulia, around whom the team is being built, from hated rivals Leeds" is news whereas the story "Lulia completes second year of his contract" is no news. Its season ticket selling time as alluded to by one poster, if theres one thing they have learnt from Hetherington this is it. how to make a pr mountain out of a molehill.
And if we were to sell, I would hope we got Ryan Bailey as part of the deal, no point having a good strong running centre if he never has the ball.'"
Thing we'll never know is whether club would have made this public at all if Parker hadn't highlighted it in league express. The rumour was out in open so club acted to quash it. If they hadn't done that then rumour would have persisted and damaged ticket sales. Case of being damned whatever option they took IMO.
