| More twists and turns than a "Tales of the unexpected" episode (you young uns won't remember that programme) .
Followed this topic from day one and fingers crossed everything comes up roses for you to be fair there has been enough crap thrown around for that.
Hope the result of all this is what you all want, a Bradford team to support next season

| In biblical terms didn't Moses seek the way by wandering off into the desert...well I just feel like wandering off to the cow and calf rocks and standing atop..and screaming to the Almighty for redemption. or maybe take a few more bottles of paracetamol!

| Quote HamsterChops="HamsterChops"That statement to me reads:
"The administrator is saying the buyers want the Odsal lease. If they can't have it, they're not going to buy and the club will be liquidated. We're saying we will sell it if they give us enough money and promise RL will still be played there. We're not going to sell it cheap or let you use the land for something else just because the club might go under if we do."
I see a stalemate. Which I'm afraid may well lead to the L word.'"
Pretty much how i read it.
At this moment in time id sooner the rfl temporally take over the club rather than it go to one of these shysters and mercenaries

Is it beyond the wit of MAN not to go into shares with a potential buyer who would own it as a consortium with a view to a package that would build a proper stadium of the future and then RL big games could also be held at Odsal .. it being accessible from the motorways, with plenty of accommodation nearby...

| They say a significant statement will be made tomorrow. At this point in time it must be known what is going to be said.
Why are people immediately thinking it is liquidation. Significant could also mean big, surprising, unexpected and so on.
My money is still on a good announcement tomorrow - with a bit of a surprise thrown in there maybe from the RFL in the way of give and take from both parties. I am not in the camp of the RFL want us to fold. I still believe they will do their best to get a stable owner in charge.
That's how I feel and fingers crossed I am right.

If I listen to the administrator, I feel the announcement may be positive. Then I look at that statement from the RFL and I wonder why, if the club is about to be finalised and sold, why did they need to put that statement out?
The statement is a clear "we're not to blame" which makes me expect the worst.

| I would take anyone owning the club at this moment. I don't wanna see the club go under.

| If we fold, who is going to provide the majority of the England team in future?
Never mind, I'm sure the rfl can rely on those teams that can't be bothered to invest in youth

| FWIW, as someone who decided not to be involved in this go round the sun, walked away and who checks back in once every three days or so, I am still largely positive. I'm prepared to be disappointed but I expect good news.

| What a caper this is turning out to be!
It's either a super positive development, millionaire Wembley of the North bright future...
Or lock up the gates and use it for landfill

| We could compromise and get someone to fill it with money.
In fact I believe Tigertot brought his considerable experience to bear and once told us we could get someone to pay us to allow them to fill it with money.

| The main benefit of owning the lease would be the ability to borrow against it. Anyone looking to do that probably hasn't got much cash at the table. That sounds like the start of administration 4.
