| Quote Bull Mania="Bull Mania"I don't feel comfortable with reforming in the championship on -12. It will rightly vex all the other clubs off. But we've no got a competitive squad to try and avoid relegation. It won't be made up of the current players. It will be a last minute put together hash job with regular beatings and fans will continue to walk away.
I would rather we drop down to L1 and reform and build up and start a brand new journey together.
Think we may have to prepare ourselves for an almighty backlash...'"
This Fev fan is quite happy to see you stay where you are. Can't see how dumping you in C1 will benefit anyone in the sport.
12 point penalty is harsh, but needs to be seen to be done. Hopefully you can keep the bulk of your players and finish mid table this year with a view to building in 2018.
All the best. |

| Quote Nat (Rugby_Aholic)="Nat (Rugby_Aholic)"What a load of nonsense. Why do the RFL insist on making up rules as they go along. If a new club forms it should be made to start in Championship 1 and earn its right to play in Championship. It devalues the Championship!
What happens if you sign all the same players and relagate some other team that has honoured its debts at the cost of putting out a competitive team?'"
Typical ramblings of a bitter and twisted fax fan let just thank got they are all not like that. WE all know RFL are a rule to themselves but that is the offer on the table after a meeting of their council Just like the admin the fans cant change it LIVE WITH IT |

| Quote Maccbull_BigBullyBooaza="Maccbull_BigBullyBooaza"I tend to agree with that but it also devalues the Championship having no team for Hull KR to play at the summer bash. Teams getting byes every week in the league and season tickets at all clubs now being worth less than what they were bought at (plus club's losing income).
So either way it's not really very good is it? RFL are in between a rock and a hard place brought about the people that have run Bradford Bulls over the last 10-15 years.
Personally I'd prefer to sit the season out and see a new club formed properly and not at the last minute. Apply for entry into League 1 and build properly from there. Even if it means years as a semi pro team with no academy etc. At least it would be right.'"
Your correct about the summer bash, maybe a team should be promoted and given the extra funding available. There are a few players available now. What makes a zero day old Bradford club with no history or track record more worthy than Donny, Barrow or Keighley?
I understand its an emotive subject, but the fact is the new club has no history or standing in the game. Purely a geographical location. Putting the new club into the Championship is a cop out from the RFL who don't want to have to work out the technicalities. |

The person I quoted mate. There are clearly some logical thinkers on here who see the drop to Champ 1 as the right thing, but some who think a new club has some right to be in Championship because they happen to be based in the same town as a famous RL club once was.
Sad day for the sport no matter which way you look at it, but as usual the RFL find a way to make an even bigger balls up of it. |

Not sure who you mean when you say some who think the new club has some right...
Unless you are referring to someone merely quoting what the RFL said |

Jeez, our club has just been liquidated and we get posters trying to tell us that it's not fair? Some people amaze me at times. Just a couple of facts:
1. None of us fans have had any involvement in the running of the club.
2. We think that starting in ch1 is the best option as long as we have a club and some players. We have no control of what the RFL do. If you have an issue then please take it up with them.
3. Right Now, believe It or not, we feel a little bit down so trying to preach to us may not go down so well.

Yes, sad day for the sport, sh*t day to be a Bulls fan, so you would think a bit of empathy maybe is in order?
Again, vbfg was not supporting RFL in this, just stating facts. I am still yet to see one of us on here who want to carry on in the Championship with a 12pt reduction, so you really are ranting at the wrong people. |

And that's why, even if we are no more, I will always turn my nose up at the hill people of Halifax. You know, that little town on the outskirts of Shelf.  |

On a more frivolous note, can this thread get to 100 pages before we get a buyer?
