Anyway, I didn’t intend for my post to derail the thread. It was merely to illustrate that we had already bought our season tickets and bought an extra one (which we have never done before in previous seasons).

So in that sense the club is doing better than in previous years as they have taken more money from my family and also 4 months earlier than they ordinarily would have (we wouldn’t normally buy until Jan).

I hope many other people stick with them and commit to the 2020 season.

Haha im glad its not just me then!!

Update for anyone whos interested.
Currently 600 of 1196 seating tickets have now been sold.

Breakdown:
Hospitality tickets 46 of 104 sold
Premier tickets 80 of 84 sold
Regular seating 474 of 1008 sold

Yes this is how im spending my Sunday afternoon with there being no game to watch!!

Season ticket sales are 20% up on this stage last season.
Bulls only sold 6 boxes at Odsal last season.
Currently sold all 8 at Dewsbury resulting in the club oversubscribed for boxes.

Please take your positivity somewhere else.

So how is everyone buying their season tickets right now? I've just been told that we can't buy them at Dewsbury's ticket office anymore. The shop in Wibsey has still yet to materialise, and I heard mention of something at the training facilities in Tong but not sure if this is actually a thing?

I really object to having to pay extra fees that are involved in buying season tickets online etc but I don't even know if there is any other way to buy them at this moment in time?

Alright just a heads up for anyone else wondering the same as me. I just messaged the club on twitter and they responded almost immediately. You can still buy season tickets from the Bulls Foundation offices up at Odsal, so despite all those rumours I guess the RFL didn't kick us out and 'change the locks'. What a surprise.

Anyway, some fantastic customer support from the club there

I think the Bulls Foundation are a separate organisation from the rugby club, hence when the club was liquidated in 2017 the foundation continued to operate as normal.

Also I believe the office space they use is rented directly from the council, as the club did with the car park (not included in the RFL leasehold).

Well I take my hat off to anyone who's kept the faith and bought a season ticket already. I'm not sure if it's head or heart that helped make your decision but I respect you for helping with the cashflow when we're under siege.

I think the twitter rats would be chirping like chuff if anything untoward was going on, there's not even the obligatory 'Issued in error' WUP on the gazette?

So I am remaining cautiously optimistic whilst we only have the say so of the financially mis-managed RFL that there are concerns regarding the club's finances because they're trying to cut their overheads.

I don't know if there's been mission creep but the of rumoured signing a player back in May was, at the time, 'leaked' by the RFL along with the saying the signing had not been ratified by themselves because it would break the budget. 'I'm hearing that...' No mention of SM's at the time IIRC?

However, it was categorically denied by AC. He said we didn't make any signing. The twitter rats couldn't even come up with a name - how unusual?

I know I am getting tin-foily but this concern from the RFL is as believable as Rees-Mogg telling us that the elites are trying to fleece us.

I'm sticking with the club and for now sticking to the belief that the RFL have spat their dummy into orbit because the millstone that's Odsal looks to have sat their plan to relocate to Majestic Manchester flat on it's 4r5e.

...and i used a credit card

Bought our season tickets last month, and spent just short of £1000 for the privilege (by credit card). How wise I now consider that move to have been is open to some debate, but what is done is done. If the club make it to the starting line next February then I'll be there, no matter what kind of team we have. Its the non communication, as ever, from the club that is frustrating. I'm no fan of the RFL, but Im not a "Bulls are victims" merchant either.
The RFL have every right to ask serious questions about our finances, its the fact that we seem unable to answer them that is the concern. Ive learnt more about Andrew Chalmers record collection than why we are in Special Measures, from his newspaper column.
Anyway, what will be will be. Maybe the wicked RFL will stop deliberately trying to put us out of business because they are miffed about us leaving Odsal (seriously?) and all will be well.
I hope so. coyb.

The RFL lease doesn't include the building used by the foundation & sports chaplaincy. Also not the car park. But it does include the old shop complex. The RFL did try but the Council pointed out their error...
