We had a mania for stadium plans before they did.

Bring back Mike O'Neill, he could do the Steve Long gig as well.
"Ladies & Gentlemen, boys & girls, what time is it? It's stadium mania time. Let's hear the war cry."

Yes, along with - "clear the pitch boys and girls, the members of a hedge fund will soon be feeding", oh, it breaks your heart..

The internet version of hiding behind the curtains by peaking at the scary movie through a small crack......
So you question the wisdom of trying to get more money and use out of Odsal? It's an old stadium and he upkeep is one of the biggest weights round the club's neck but the ground is barely used over a year. Maybe 13/14 afternoons over the summer. But the rest of the year, it sits empty. The idea of hosting concerts is not a bad one, especially if they're held at points were the Bulls have a large gap in the calendar with no games as they had this year gone.

But please, show us your questions because all I remember you putting were snide comments about the acts rather than anything actually constructive

I questioned the claim that the 3 main areas of profitability were the shop (been there a while), the Coral Suite (been there a while) and Summer concerts (3 announced for 2013, 1 happened, it lost 6 figures). Are you saying that I was wrong to throw doubt on the viability of such a robust business plan

I also cast doubt on the suitability of a multiple-failed publican as a part owner of the "iconic" club. Are you suggesting I was wrong there too?

No matter if the questions were wrapped up as "snide comments" they were questions and they were/are valid.

I'd still rather be a Bradford Bulls fan than a London Broncos one....all we've done is change seats on the titanic.

GF -- you seem to have admitted to snide comments. Honesty is always the best policy.

Honesty? Might well be the best policy, but not when it comes to submitting business plans for a 3 year Licence in SL

QED

Roofy, if people have decided to ignore a troll it's probably best not to quote the said troll as it defeats the object. Just saying!

It's obvious from today's T&A article that the support staff for FC has been dramatically hit by the budget cuts. When they've served their notice (mid January) FC admits it will be a problem to cope without them. I would not have thought these are the type of jobs which could be covered by volunteers. I haven't seen any reports regarding which posts have gone- I may have missed it. Does anyone know?
In the article FC discloses there have been approaches for players and he cannot sign anyone (including Evans) until people leave. Monday's RL Express suggested London have their eyes on Bulls players specifically mentioning Sammut and also that some new players were already signed--by the Broncos not the Bulls
