i would suggest that Fax do as we were actually rated on the franchise ladder and got a grade C.

Fev didnt apply and barrow were miles off.

The RFL need to think very carefully, not only in the short term if the Bulls are to survive and run till the end of the season but also in the longterm. what will happen come the off season? and into 2013?

This whole scenario is going to pick afew holes in the RFL's little 'Francise baby' and it will all be done across the nations tabloids.

I for one watch on with anticipation.

I'd be happy with 4 points. It's what we and Crusaders had imposed. Provided the new company can show financial stability (i.e., charge the going rate to get in!), then what's the problem?

Don't like your assumption about Wakefield. As for taking the mickey regarding our stadium, if you're not up to date, we have had our PI passed for a new stadium at Newmarket. Don't be in a rush to make assumptions about others.

The problem would be Slugger that the new Directors have got into SL for a mere pittance. I feel that the newco should start lower down if RFL has any integrity at all.

This statement has destroyed every irony meter in the universe.

You have PI passed but have you actually laid a brick yet and sold off Belle Vue? No. If your ground gets delayed then you could face a license review as I believe you promised it to be done in time for 2014. Granted I think your further on than Cas but correct me if im wrong. Cas are worse off because of their financial position.

And also to Early Bath, I believe I am because without the Bulls then they get more money which may secure them financially so they may not have to face the same situation and if they vote the Bulls out then find themselves in that position later in the line then there are no Bulls to vote against them so they wouldn't really have nothing to fear.

Fax won't come up, they have just announced a £20,000 profit at Championship which is excellent so they won't ruin that by coming up to Super League and having to pay Super League costs, upping season tickets and losing fans because they will be beaten every week. What's best for Fax is to stay down and keep making profit and playing good rugby and competing for trophies, they don't deserve to be a 3rd rate Super League team being beat week in week out.

And yes Annakin it might but our stadium is a Grade B whereas Wakey's is Grade C.

If Bradford get voted out it's entirely down to the previous regime's management. Although, it would be silly if your a club struggling financially to vote Bradford out as that would set a presidence.

Wheres your evidence then?

Would you elaborate on Wakefield and the stadium please and quantify how Wakefield are taking the p*ss as you put it.

FWIW having gone through this last year and staying in SL I would thnk Mr Glover would be one person who has a great deal of sympathy with your current plight.

Now talking of taking the p*ss have you paid players and had mages up to the cap for several years without having the income to cover it? The support from the RFL has been phemomenol for you your lease has been bought out (why) but you have tax liabilities in the main if what has been reported is fact (image rights is it and VAT etc). The support you have had hardly lloks like the RFL will cast you out regardless of what the clubs think.

If I were you I would wind your neck in about this and concentrate on getting out of admin and avoiding liquidation. 12 months ago after admin Wakey were destinbed for Champoinship rugby with less that 1% of teh support you have had from the RFL. Think yourself lucky and fight your cause and dont criticise other clubs.

Correction

Its not your stadium though now is it?

Correct, it's owned by the RFL therefore it's in their best interest to keep us in SL.

Its been sold more times than KR have away fans.

We'll remind you of that in a few years time matey.

Maybe someone should tell Bulls Boy 2011, its seems to have slipped his mind.

Bradford stadium is no better than Belle Vue. We now have new stands. Away fans don't have to get wet as they do stood at Odsal. The ground isnt ours, its owned by the Bank of Ireland and yours is owned by the RFL!

Didn't Mr Glover at Wakefield? Didn't London after they went bust? Some people made bad decisions for a while at Bradford. On all other counts, they are a top flight club.

it never rains in the summer
