Mick Gledhill has retweeted a comment about barrow signing a super league player. Guessing its a bull with obvious guess being Donaldson seeing as he's from that way.

Could be Dowes, isnt he from that way?

Hopefully if it is dowes or Donaldson then they have a similiar cooling off period to that of Martin Aspinwall.

At least the Academy are getting going www.bradfordbulls.co.uk/news

A bit of a suprise about Pryce www.thetelegraphandargus.co.uk/s ... ulls_exit/

A bit of a suprise about Pryce www.thetelegraphandargus.co.uk/s ... ulls_exit/

Must mean we're keeping Ainscough?

'Continues to put his stamp on the squad'?

Has he signed a player yet?

I thought Pryce did well and with a lack of wingers in the squad and doubts over Purtell in the right centre I don't understand this.

squad list updated with this mornings news of Pryce Joseph Ball and that Ainsco and McAvoy are in discussions as well as those previously mentioned, source of the news about contract discussion and date added too. thats a lot more clarity in the reserves/young players, and lays the ground for some new signings and new contracts of existing players. Again both nas and Sammut are referred to as possibly going to follow suit and sign a new contract, I still don't know how that can work based on what we know about the quota.

Another unwarranted signing on fee in the pipeline for Pryce. Please not Cas.

well im hoping we have some signings lined up for the outside backs, otherwise I do not understand the decision to let a player with a decent try scoring record, who can play in a number of positions, and whos should not command a large salary leave a thin squad.

this site is supposed to be rumours.

come on all you people in the know where are the names of people linked to the bulls, is FC doing his negotiations in secret, this thread used to keep us all entertained over the winter guessing who was joining us.

yes Monkey Belly, fully agree with you, where are all the rumours to add to what little we do know.

On the other hand, we have had rather a large dose of realism of late, which has undoubtedly stunted the quantity and quality of rumours...Scott Murrell full stop. I am discounting Matty Blythe as a rumour until those that mention his name say why they mention it, as a want or as a rumour. But plenty of good wants on the preview squad list OP

My first thought on the Pryce news was 'why?'. Why offload a proven SL player from a paper thin squad? Even Joseph would add another body to the squad which is not exactly packed with prop forwards

But on reflection I think we have to trust FC and the new regime. I'm pleased that Cummins isn't just 'making do' with Pryce and Joseph just because 'they are there'. He obviously doesn't rate them, so he's moving them out. Good for him! He's putting his mark on the squad, and I'm prepared to believe that he knows what he is doing and has definite targets in mind or negotiations for those positions.

Basically, lets give the guy a chance

To me, it's just a sign that Francis Cummins isn't willing to take on board slackers and people that need to be carried.

I was just texting my old man the news of price leaving. When he text back saying he was up at asda and Tom Briscoe was there .
