| Quote Bulliac="Bulliac"I think those two never actually completed on the buy out IIRC, so never were 'owners'. Weren't they handed the keys by the RFL on the assumption that they would take over but then before completion the price went up (or some such) and they said no and left? I can't remember just what the hitch was but I do remember thinking I didn't blame them.
It was me that mentioned them. They were advised to put club into admin. The RFL decided to award the the club to MG instead. I think that’s right.

Points deduction if memory serves.

| Right nestegg, answer me this. Your man rang me yesterday, now either him or me is lying about something he told me. Can’t both be telling the truth. Should we put it to the vote on here, so who people believe. Please tell me what I have to gain from telling lies. I have said many times I will keep telling what I KNOW to be the truth on here to stop people like you peddling your bull
Also I believe more than one person is posting under the name nestegg
Wasn’t it strange that within about 5 minutes last night I’d had a text message and a post on here both telling me you’d spun me a yarn to see if I was trustworthy and apparently I’m not.
But you are??? Really???
Isn’t it funny a certain bulls commentator has not been on here for a while, especially with so much to discuss at the moment, oh hang on a minute.
Don’t you and your cronies dare say I’m not trustworthy

| The ignore button is a whole new level of stress on this forum, which up until today, I was unaware of. It highlights in yellow the fact the person you are ignoring has posted. I then find myself in a stress inducing mental struggle to not check what they have posted. It's like putting on a sign saying "Do not press this big red button" next to a big red button.

| Quote Ewwenorfolk="Ewwenorfolk"To be fair with the amount of owners we’ve had it’s easier to forget the circumstances or even the owners themselves.....
I completely forgot about Moore / Calvert until somebody mentioned them the other day!'"
It was actually Moore / Calvert and Watt.
Moore was the one that was originally buying the club from OK. There was then somw wrangle between Moore and OK over the price and debts which meant although the three of them were running the club it was still officially OK that owned it. This lead to a situation of stalemate as the club could not move forward. The RFL 'advised' the trio to put the club into Admin to force the situation whereby the trio could the officially take over the ownership of the club. At the 11th hour whilst the trio were waiting for the ownership to be ratified the RFL parachuted MG in with SF as his wingman.
IT needs to be remembered that although the Administrators have a duty to get the best deal for the creditors it is still the RFL that has the final say-so with their "fit and proper person" test. I suppose it could be summarised as "Choose whoever you want (as long as it's the person whose name is in this envelope".

| Quote psychostring="psychostring"You openly admitted to everyone in a post that you “spun a yarn” to someone on here whose family will be directly affected by whatever the outcome of the Bulls situation is.
What part of such game playing would you say is not disgraceful in a situation as emotive as this?
You might not have breached any forum rules but as others have pointed out, it is immoral and cruel.
You’ve somehow managed to hijack all threads on the current goings on at the Bulls and make them all about you so well done for that.'"
Above thread you refer to above was edited.
Apologies if you feel we are hijacking your threads.
We have explained why we were purposefully evasive with RD re our identities. It was nothing personal, and nor was it immoral or cruel.
We have said time and time again that we feel for RD and his son's plight. However, their, and all of the forum members, rightful grievances should be aimed at the the club (who have after all maltreated his son ... and of course many other players) and the RFL who knew about the pensions scandal months ago.
Anyhow, if OK let's move on. Divisiveness will surely get us nowhere. We need to pull together; not fight. We are NOT the so called enemy.

Well said mate. There's several folk who deserve some respect. Ask the young and talented Kieran Dalby; he we understand was there at the time of the mugging.
As we and PumpetyPump have said let's have a reality check ... and move on.
We're heading off for a while, so there'll be no 'hijacking' for a wee while.
Hopefully, when we return the divisiveness will have been tempered.

| I wonder what Mulder, Scully and the Lone Gunmen would think of the conspiracies. Aliens and cover ups have nothing on Bradford eh?

While it's certainly not funny and hope the culprits are caught the point still stands, the commentator has been surprisingly quiet since these issues have been going on and nest egg started posting a couple of weeks ago. (when said commentator has been very vocal on other platforms) What happened on Saturday doesn't excuse what's been going on on this forum weeks prior to that incident.

You misunderstood my statement when rewordng RD's post I certainly was not siding with your view. Just being ironic about a certain commentator losing his phone. I for one would like to thank the muggers.
