How would a bid go down from Warrington do you think, at this stage?
Sure, you'd lose a great player which is not what you would ever want, but balance that with survival?

Batemans been on twitter saying he's not going to leave.

He's a Bradford lad through and through and has tweeted how much he loves the club.

The club say they will not resort to selling young players.

End of.

I wasnt trying to stoke flames by the way, just a report on Sporting Life. It would suprise me given Tony Smiths comments last year on helping, not hindering clubs facing survival.

Surely, on the other hand, Bradford would HAVE to consider all offers for players at this stage if it meant surviving?

Michael Platt is available for 150k surely Moran cant turn that down!

But, you couldn't afford to pay us that to take Platt from you.. Oh wait you mean we.... ah.. no.

And you believe this? Didn't Hood state that Bradford weren't a selling club after Fielden was sold? How many have been cashed in on since whilst still under contract?

In response to your first question, like a lead balloon we are hurting enough at the moment without losing the best young player in super league

There's a difference when players have a strong desire to sell. Burgess wanted to go to Aus, Lynch to Hull etc.


Bateman and Whitehead at the least have publically said they don't want to leave.

Frankly if we hang onto Bateman we'll be doing very well indeed. The club may be desperate to keep him but if the money runs out....

Really?

Yes. He said he would stay if the club weren't prepared to let him go early.

He wanted to go to Hull though.

Lynch did not want to go to Hull. the club would not offer him an extension to his contract that had 1 year to go.

Don't post silly things like this unless you know for certain.

No, Lynch didn't want to leave. we, effectively, forced his arm due to the financial situation.

Correct

Apologies, I stand corrected.
