| The comparison with Rangers is a mute point as the SFA were going to re-admit them to the premier league. It was the clubs who scuppered this it had nothing to do with any morals. They knew get Rangers out the way they had better chance of feathering their own nests. Through better league position finish's European football things like that. After 3 years out the chairman off Motherwell was quoted as saying the loss of income for 6 home games against them was more than any extra they made so lets not use Rangers as some moralistic stand point.

I wasn't trying to use them as moral guideline. Just using them to show Halifax Cougar that even though they were liquidated (regardless of what league they were in) they are still seen as the Rangers who had all the history. Even as a 'NewCo' they retained their history etc rather than seen as a brand new entity like for example Toronto.

Deluded.

| Quote: HalifaxCougar "
The old club is gone. '"
Poor lad. No, the club was the club, is the club and forever will be the club. That is, the bit which the fans love and support.
Quote: HalifaxCougar " You are currently a team with zero wins ever and as things stand bottom of the league. You can not want to start on the bottom league and say we're keeping our old history. No chance. You ever keep your history or your a new club. It is simple. '"
No, YOU are simple. But if it makes you happy to pretend to think that my club no longer exists (even though you know that is delusional). No fan ever supported some random limited company, or any board of directors, they are a necessary but completely incidental part of how it works. Our history is forever our history, which is I know what irks you, and so makes me smile.
Quote: HalifaxCougar " Let's get annoyed at other fans coming on here and talking about your failings. Let's just pretend it never happened if you like. Give you back your 12 points and restart the season too. If you like...'"
You're rambling now. I should calm down before the saliva shorts out your keyboard

| Think it's just sinking in over in Greater Manchester that Fax are going to be crap again.
Ita not just those losers too. Check this out rlhttps://forums.rlfans.com/viewtopic.php?f
Even by Wakefield standards that's really sad and a new low. I counted 13 disgusting's and 8 disgrace's.
All because the BBC made an error on the league table for a division that they aren't even in!!!

| But we can't have it all ways. We can't expect a 12 point deduction and still remain in the league. We can't expect to be called Bradford and still be linked to our history.
Personally, I think the records should be wiped and Bradford erased from the history books. And then Bradford raised to the ground, Odsal bulldozed and any future club, playing anywhere, containing anyone who has ever heard of Bradford being given a -100 point penalty as a deterrent.
It's only fair.

Don't give the RFL ideas
But there will still be trolls who think even the above would not be sufficient punishment and all our fans should also be brain-washed so that we cant remember our glory days.
But they will still come on here and remind us

| Can't understand why Blue Sox fans are so upset about us being kept in CH. Had we been put into CH1 it looks as though Blue Sox would be dead and buried in this division this year

I suppose we should be impressed it's not disCusting or a disCrace. Their levels of literacy are improving?

Yeah I do not understand some of our fans. I think we should be happy to take any opportunity to give Bradford, in one form or another, a tonking and watch them die a painful death in the same league as us. It beggars belief.

| Quote: Bulliac "I doubt much was actually planned, to be fair, it's just people making snap reactions to the current circumstances. Like most snap decisions they are made with a minimum of thought. The RFL wanted Bradford in the championship because of the crowds, but they should be aware that, though the Bradford crowd is quite large by chamionship standards it is, in general, thin in the sense that poor results tend to cause a marked drop off in support. I think that we, and them, are just hoping for the best.'"
May I make a sincere request that you guys refrain from talking any sense at all! Frankly it's making my head ache> I confess I'm liking banality far more!
Mainly because I have just found out that Leigh have entered administration a few times up to DB and the council run Sporting Village taking over. The RFL have helped them in some way at some time, I wonder why? Not only that I do not see one comment that wants' them strung up along side of us, for this crime of the century. And if you like we have enough points deducted over the years to share a few with the likes of Wakey (Who already had four from a previous admin) and of course Salford who had 6 deducted but for a different heinous crime. So if you remove that 10 we would still be able to give you some of our 14 that's left from 2013 or was it 2012 I forget.
So you guys may I just say if you intend to have a pop at our situation it was not only Jesus who says "let those without sin cast the first Stone" Yes Nige old bud what about halifax in 2003 then? I'm going to lie in the darkened room now!
