Good stuff! Class from them for even offering though!

Assuming that the RFL decide on who they are prepared to give a license to this week, does that realistically leave the new owner time to complete the legal process, recruit a squad and sort out all the necessary admin arrangements in order to be able to field a team for the opening week of the season?

Is there a scenario whereby the RFL might allow the club to postpone the first couple of matches to allow a bit of breathing space?

Phoenix from the flames? Have we enough logs to build the fire? It doesn't look like it. What a crushing blow.

My guess would be, no and no.

The RFL have made a right mess of this, why didn't they just say Bradford can start in league 1 in 2018??

I can't see what is taking so long, 2.5 days to read over 4 bids. Unless the bid they have aren't good enough. a026.gif icon_cry.gif

Your source is good. Kavanagh had the option of joining Huddersfield but has signed for Swinton Lions instead. If what I've heard regarding the bids is true then they'll be no announcement this week. Rohan has his flights booked. You can't blame him for having enough.

This is from Batley Forum



We can confirm our game v Bradford Select is OFF.

We are very disappointed as today the Rfl gave their approval. We had a kit sponsor, Bulls fans had rung to reserve playing kits @£100 each. Ravensport were making the kit tomorrow. Everything was in place to stage the game and we were to announce that it was on at 2pm. However former Bulls players at last minute indicated they did not wish to play and risk injury with no playing contracts although medical insurance was in place. It is of course their decision just wished we had known earlier and saved a lot of work!

Good news at Keighley game all those paying £10 entrance will have choice of free bobble hat ( maroon or grey) or a free drink! Looking forward to it!

One has links to Green which the RFL have uncovered. Bravo. One has a playing budget of less than 350k so effectively part time, one was dismissed and one wants us to play in League One.

Couldn't agree more, can't blame the players and staff.

I blame in this order, Green, the administrator then the RFL.

Let me explain, Green for over spending and not managing the club, The administrator for taking so long and then the RFL thinking someone could put a bid together in 7 days with all the info they needed, then leaving a potential new owner with 2-3 weeks to get a side together.
