Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.

4 official bids. So Lamb/Irvine is one. David Thorne the other. Who do we reckon the other 2 are.

4 Bids apparently but personally feel you need to go with a money man ( Wasps) especially if he pays off HMRC.
Supporters Board? Mmmm - Best Board of Directors is FOUR - with 2 Dead and 1 dying.

| Quote: RFL Official Statement "The RFL can confirm that it will assess four official bids to create a new professional Rugby League Club in Bradford.
The RFL set out a clear process last week and subsequently received twelve requests for further information regarding the possibility of setting up a new professional club in the city.
The four bids that have been submitted will remain confidential and will now be thoroughly assessed by the RFL Executive which aims to make a recommendation to the RFL Board as soon as possible.
Bradford is a great city with a rich Rugby League heritage and deserves a professional club that supporters can be proud of.'" |

As thoroughly assessed as when they approved our last couple of owners? Or more assessed than that?

To be fair to them, I don't think they had much leverage when Green went for it. And the Omar thing feels like decades ago. |

As a. Real left field candidate, didn't Lawn say he was considering throwing his hat in the ring. Might be more attractive now with no debt and no money to shell out to buy the club, just need enough working capital.

Did he not loan City the money? Not sure he has the single wealth to ride out a storm and withdrew his bid partly because his former co-chairman opted out. |

I take it these bids are all assuming the club's has been liquidated rather than "technically still in administration" like last week?

The RFL statement talks about forming a new club in Bradford, so they are thinking the liquidation is complete. Strange given what allegedly came out of the players meeting about a deal being reached with Pettit. |

Won't matter. The RFL can issue the licence to the winner bidder. |

As much as Lawn suggested he may be up for it, it seems to me he's only interested if he has Julian Rhodes as part of the team, who ruled himself out previously. I would be surprised if Lawn ended up being one of the four, and even more surprised if he got it.
Personally I don't think he'd be a bad person to run the club. Has he got the money to ride out this season with the near impossible task though? Not so sure. |
