Anyone able to confirm if the wages have gone in yet?

Aaron Bower on Twitter is saying they are paid in full for July.

Game on Sunday then!

I could comment but any info I put on here usually ends up on Facebook very quickly so I don’t bother

It is funny how things in here get almost instantly parroted on Bradford Bulls Banter

So if it's correct that the players have been paid, it doesn't hide the fact we are in trouble again, but seemingly have managed to find a route to meet payroll.

As someone who lost the Close emotional attachment I'd had since 1967 with Debacle of the post liquidation season, I fully get others saying another financial problem will see them gone!!

Thinking about why, it has to be costs associated with Odsal, along with the costs of running a reserve, academy teams and all the costs associated with that. Our crowds are amongst the highest in the league, paying top dollar for the privilege, and I doubt our squad is paid more than most of the other teams around us. Not many of our competitors run academy and reserve teams, maybe we shouldn't to avoid this again, but that sort of feels like we're giving up if the Academy goes.

You do right Chris.Keep your powder dry.Its not worth the hassle.

I doubt that running the reserves costs the club that much in the way of their 'income' since the RFL provide a substantial amount of additional funding to all the clubs running a Category 1 Academy. Although on the flip side, I reckon a squad of 30+, with 22 of those FT, costs more than quite a few clubs around you in the table.

Have we really got 22 full timers!! I thought it was much less, remember hearing Kear say after the Leeds game we had 7 or 8 part timers in squad that day
If it is 22 it's too many as Widnes found earlier in the season!!

One question is who on earth were we trying to sign??

Any ideas

that's not the question you should be asking it should be why are the club spending when they haven't got it there to spend

IIRC the RFL made it a condition on whoever took over in 2017 to run an academy, reserves and women's team.

Whatever is/ maybe/maybe not happening At Bradford I hope it isn’t negative. Yes, I am a stout Fax and Yes Mrs Faxlore is a Bulls fan but ( forget the club for now) the poor fans, hardcore and floaters, have been put through sh@t over the last 8 years or so. Many supporters have put their own money’s into the club to help and Keep then alive. I hope these rumours are are just that, rumours.

Lovely sentiments Faxlore but nah, f◇@k 'em!

So has everyone ruled out the possibility that this still could be much to do about nothing?

Or does the wages allegedly being paid paper some cracks, so to speak.

Paid wages certainly helps but the CCJ business doesn't. I don't care if other clubs have them too I want my club to be run properly and if it is you don't get them.

Given our recent history we need to avoid any dramas.
