You just need to work on the "somebodies" now. Try taking your tablet with water after meals.

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

Maybe our crust eating friend from the previous page is more informed than me, why not ask him instead? |

RFL need shafting because they allowed the Bulls franchise, they deemd it a strong business proposiition they either did not read it, ignored it or quite simply proves licensing is ajoke and my 3 year old could have written the application. RFL = No backbone.

While I cannot disagree with the content of the argument, 2 wrongs dont always make a right

What a fekking wassock.
Where the fekk would your club be if you were not being bankrolled by Davy? Down the bloody toilet, that's where.
And please explain to us just how, precisely, you are qualified to make such a dumbass statement?

at the end of the day the RFL were advised by a body that looked at the finance plans of the applicants for a SL licence, who is to say that the info given to the assessors was 100% truthful and accurate as it probably contained "projected" income from season tickets, pay on the day fans, merchandise sales, sponsorship etc etc. any of these could have been vastly incorrect or not come to fruition.
If the RFL had said to the Bulls in July 2011 we don't think your application is good enough and you won't get a licence, almost everyone in RL would have called the RFL a bunch of Idiots. Hindsight is a wonderful thing.

Maybe if they had used the word ' speulative ' to describe it everybody would have agreed with them, they did over the Fax application, as you say, hindsight is a wonderful thing, when used selectively |

WOW bitter about Davy paying for a squad and not being viable to stand on there commercial activities. Good luck today Bulls, i hope you don't find yourselves in this situation again, or god forbid with someone willing to bankroll you. |

Not bitter at all. Hudds good fortune they have a Davy.
But disgusted with infantile fans who gloat at our misfortune without recognising that, as Mr McManus so well observed, there but for the grace of God go they. |

Or the business plan was sound at the time and was then undermined by circumstances later.
One thing in one of Taskers T&A statements the other week hasn't got a mention. He said discussion on the deal with RFL for lease had started earlier in 2011 (think he said May). I thought that was interesting and whether it suggests the £700K loan was a down payment.

If by some miracle the Bulls went all the way and won the GF, it would certainly add interest to the RFL's decision.
