Quote: Birky bull "All cloak and daggers eh?, or maybe there sticking to a budget for players on reduced funding from the rfl and making sure we dont go into admin yet again. Why panic buy and sign sign forwards on over inflated wages in the vain hope we can avoid religation. If we go down so be it, i will be there watching the club whilst rebuilding on solid foundations. It looks like a long term plan is in place to get back to a chance of returning to the super league'"
Conspiracy theories aside I think the most obivious strategy is the most likely otherwise why bother with re-hiring John Bastian, keeping the academy set-up and even signing academy recruits - which has just been announced in the last few minutes.
We should all brace ourselves for relegation, but that said what would have been the best case scenario even if we hadn't been deducted 12 points? Finishing 7th or 8th and yet another season in the Championship. If Lowe and Chalmers are serious about making a success of the Bradford Bulls they need to plan for the next 5-10 years. This is something that Green didn't do and it has been the club's undoing.
