I hope there are some aces up sleeves still to be played.

I have reached a sensible mental state of accepting there is no Bradford. I'm not latching on to any heresay or rumour as it's a painful business.

Have we established if we are allowed to kidnap, kill and eat social media types who write "good riddance"? I do feel like that might be a nice thing to do.

Don't shoot me down but did anyone see micks comment on twitter about an nrl director that is putting a bid together?

It has since been removed,

There may be some interesting bids coming in, I know it's Mick but a bit of food for thought

No it's not. Mick averages three deleted tweets a day.

Ask me how I know!

(I exaggerate. It's a lie that points to a greater truth)

Dont think ut was Mick, think it was a parody account. Actually the parody account is more likely to be accurate than Mick

Can't disagree.

I would suggest, New Club, new start in CH1, keep your academy lads & blood a good few at this level. Cut costs, (this will happen anyway as the best players, Chisolm, Moss et al find a new gig elsewhere).

Stabilise the Club & base future prosperity on youth set up.

Toronto Rat-Pack & Rowley already rumbling discontent at New Bradford in Championship, this would remove that particular issue.

Go CH1 to CH hopefully in 1 season then build over 3 - 4 seasons towards SL, if the finances/support base/squad depth allows.

Just a thought.

How do you know?

Pity Sheffield are gonna be dual reg with Leigh, we could of done with that, would of been quite interesting

To be fair to Rowley, he didn't actually say anything wrong.

Last year Giants had about 34 in their squad. I think 14 were academy products inc 3 full internationals + 1 England Knight + several academy internationals. (with 4 non UK players)

In 2016 ofthe top 34 Bulls players there were I think 7 from the Bulls academy. No full internationals among them. (with 6? non UK players)

So it looks like The Giants academy - though not in your class - is doing a decent job and is probably worth persevering with.

last year ex Bulls Wardle / Roberts and Patrick (briefly) featured for the Giants. In 2017 Roberts, Foster and O'Brien will be valuable members of the squad but it would be a stretch to say that they outnumber or outshine the club developed talent.

Now the Giants are playing Friday nights I hope you guys pull through and play Sundays - I'd try and get to plenty of your home games.

With every player that's announced as leaving, I become more comfortable about not finding a buyer. The prospect of what we will be left at the moment doesn't really appeal to me.

Might as well dual-reg with Huddersfield - most of their squad know their way around Odsal already
