I have us finishing 9th by the odd point, particularly once injuries bite, but the team we had last year would have easily got into the 5 and then who knows - just makes the end of last year even harder to bear icon_rolleyes.gif

If we can work on our consistency and cut out some of the panic play, then there's no reason we can't finish in a safe mid-table spot. Both the London and Fev games were games that Bradford lost rather than them being won by the opposition, IMO. A calmer and more focused performance in both games would have seen us pick up the points.

How long could we survive playing behind closed doors?
Would the RFL help out with paying the wages?
I hadn't thought of this till today when many sports clubs stated they would struggle badly if this came in.

I can't imagine any business surviving if it lost 95% of its income, with no reduction in overheads, over a longish period. I'm pretty sure that would include us.

would it be 95% of its income though? We would certainly lose food and drink income but I'd guess there's still a significant percentage of attendances being season ticket holders. Wouldn't hold my breathe for club refunding their tickets for matches held behind closed doors. More likely a voucher for shop or something. Plus we would save on matchday costs in terms of stewarding,bar staff etc. It would certainly cost club money but dont think it would be anywhere near 95% levels.

I've no idea on the actual percentage. It will be easily be the biggest part though and to suggest we could survive for a lengthy period without matchday income is being more than a bit hopeful. I can't see how they could avoid paying back people who were 'not allowed' to attend games - maybe they could re-instate the live streaming?

Maybe advertisers/sponsors would be happy to let it ride, maybe some fans would forgo the re-payments (I probably would, to be fair, if it kept the show on the road), let's hope it doesn't come to this.
