Seems like there's investment opportunities...

The Bradford Bactrians? Cleckheaton Camels?

Sugar sodding daddies everywhere except in this God-forsaken city.

Just imagine the impact on Bulls if someone walked in the door and wrote out a £1m donation cheque?

well thats willie masons wage for the year covered.

What's happened on the mason front, not heard anything lately

He doesnt want anything to do with us haha!.....he is currently training by himself in hull, feeling very sorry for himself! He may be going back to aus to cronulla or to french rugby union.

We should be approaching Red Bull. They've got plenty of teams already, built them all new stadiums, and Bradford Red Bulls isn't too much of a name change that would upset people.

Plus we could do with Wings.

Budum Tsch!

Why wud anybody want to invest in what is imo a decrepit club in a decrepit city?

For exactly that reason.

It's whether someone like Red Bull would want to invest in RL. I love the game but it's not exactly high profile.

If they did...

The investment needed to improve Odsal and bring in players to make us competetive is peanuts compared to most sports that they invest in.
We're in the top division of a pan European competition and despite struggling in recent years have a good record in SL.
Due to lack of finances and need to invest added to complete lack of form we could be picked up fairly cheap I'd imagine.
To a certain extent RL would fit in with their high energy profile, especially if we can get 'Bull Power' back as it aims at their key demographic (hence the reason why they favour the younger Vettel over Webber in F1)
They can use the old speedway track as a test track for their F1 cars.

Same goes for any investor - get a successful team and a buzz back at Odsal and keep the momentum rolling and there is potential to be massive. The only other pro club in Bradford is City and they aren't exactly looking in great health so there's a chance to develop a more RL focused fanbase in the city if the team actually start competing. Or buy the Bulls and get City free!

I would happily see a name change to the "Bradford Red Bulls" if they were prepared to invest!

Ive been in and around Bradford since 1984 now and it saddens me to think that you have major players like Tordoff who puts money into sport but a good old fashioned bradford company that started on Westgate,John street market i think,Morrisions that dont invest in sport.
Ken made his millions from a bradford start and as far as i know has never joined in supporting the citys clubs.

Ken's as tight as a gnat's chuff that's why.

It's his 'brass', he can do what he wants with it.
