According the the rlofficial siterl.

Shame we've gone over the hills, didn't Keighley fancy it?

Its good news, some of our young players will now be able to get first team action, all though it be in a lower league it will boost there confidance, and some good player come from that part of the world so you never we might end up getting some quality players.

Which is why I'll take this news with a pinch of salt too.

Do we reckon they pretty much just took the press release from a few years ago and changed a few names?

It remains to be seen of course, but I think we should be positive about this.

I've thought for ages that clubs that cannot seriously entertain aspirations for Super League should link up with clubs in Superleague. The only slightly odd thing is the geography - you'd expect it to be more sensible for us to link with Keighley or Batley, but there are probably historic and personality reasons why that hasn't happened.

I look forward to the likes of Olbison, Crossley and Hyde getting some gametime for Rochdale.

If that sort of thing does happen, it will be beneficial to both sides.

However we said the same when we linked up with Dewsbury, and were expecting exactly the same results, but then it just quietly went away, with the exception of a friendly there each year.

Very clever move by the Bulls as it opens up a new 'service area' to the club outside the congested West Yorkshire / Heavy Woollen area we already have eyes and ears in.

The eastern side of Greater Manchester i.e Rochdale and Oldham have a great tradition of developing good players that need a Super League opportunity that the Bulls can bow legally tap up!

Good work Mr. Medley icon_cool.gif

M62 J21 Rochdale is only about 25 mins from Odsal outside of peak hours. This would seem to give Bulls easier access to the talent in the East Lancs area away from our hinterland where we'll already be pretty active, and Rochdale vice-versa. And Rochdale is a fair way from their nearest SL clubs (Salford & Huddersfield), which are themselves not that much nearer than Bradford.

This one came out of the blue; but IF it is followed through (unlike the last two attempts) then its a very intriguing move. And one which geographically makes a hell of a lot of sense. After all, hell would have to freeze over before the good folk of Keighley would sign up to something like this with Bradford, Halifax is going places again and won't be anybody's "feeder club", and there are too many other SL clubs too close to Dewsbury, Batley and Hunslet.

Must be good move for Rochdale too, because they are far enough away not to be overshadowed (or worse).

Starting to like the idea a lot.

I love the idea. IF it's followed through.

And as most of us have mentioned, that's a bit IF judging by recent past form.

When you're a Bradford fan there's always a light at the end of the tunnel. Unfortunately it's usually an oncoming train:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_7741.jpg



Well here's hoping for a profitable partnership

The other benefit is that the Rochdale Hornets seem to indicate that it will be making use of the Bulls' administration services for which, hopefully, the Bulls will be paid.
