It does look as if we are not going to get resolution much before the end of the season.

The biggest issue then is going to be that the eventual buyer is going to inherit no coaching staff, and only the remnant of the playing staff after everyone has picked off the players they want. We'll then be in an even worse situation that Widnes were last season when they had to put together a SL squad after being given the license, and had to sign whoever was available.

If this is how it pans out, expect us to be battling to avoid the wooden spoon in 2013 - even assuming we somehow manage to retain our SL license

Don't you see the flaw in your plan?

Who isn't going to want to play in the WCC next season?

We'll have no problem retaining and signing players having won SL from eighth.

Don't know if I heard the 6 o-clock news on 1530 right, but BCFC say they have not put a bid in?

Quit a few people have mentioned caisley maybe linked in some way to this, maybe coming back onto the board, but didnt caulby (scuse spelling) ripped into hood for talking to Rhodes just before caIsley stuck is ore in???

As I understand it BCFC have been having talks with RFL and Guilfoyle but havent submitted a formal bid yet.

Can someone recap: In all the thread was the issue regarding the length of VP ever solved? And don't City lease VP? So would the owner be willing to let two teams use the facilities for the price of one?

Interesting post CB.

Anyway David Baldwin has confirmed that Bradford City haven't made an official bid.
They simply said they would help Bradford Bulls out anyway they could advice etc seen as though we've been in the same situation.
They've spoke to the RFL also but no bid.

There was a bid placed last night after City told the T&A about the advice etc...

The T&A then put two and two together and got 6?!

Silly really.

Other than that nothing got mentioned.

So the new unconditional bid is someone other than BCFC and they aren't likely to place a bid?

LIke I said in the T & A comments Amateur Hour It was just a ploy by City to get more Fans to the meeting, City are still struggling to keep afloat after the Richmond Years whereas the Bulls didn't quite make it after Caisleys Tenure. City do not have the finances to support both Clubs unless its asset strips one to pay for the other in that case I would be a very worried City Fan but it ain't gonna happen!

Sky sport confirmed, bulls and city run as two seperat entity's, bulls will be remaining at odsal!

So Today is D Day! First Deadline 12 noon for offers to the Administrator. Second Deadline 5pm for those offers to be passed to the RFL www.itv.com/news/calendar/2012-0 ... ord-bulls/

As far as we were told last night at the forum there WAS a bid put in for you guys which was unconditional but it wasn't from Bradford City or anyone to do with the club.

Bradford City simply offered as much help as possible to your club.

David Baldwin was very saddened by the events at Odsal and said it would be a disgrace if the Bulls were to go under. He and the board of directors would do as much as they could to help keep you going.

Very laughable post this.
Bradford City are struggling? I'd take a look at your own Rugby club before brandishing such stupid comments.
Bradford City are doing fantastic off the pitch.
Great season ticket sales.
Great flexi-card sales.
One of the highest wages in League 2 to build a strong team (Which I think for the first time in a long while we have)
We aren't in any debt as such and are very much in the black.

SO yeah, we are really struggling...
