I bought two season tickets from the old Club. Can you please indicate the source and content of any statement by the new owners that they will give me a free season ticket.

Can't be bothered reading..What was the HUGE announcement?

It seems the new media man getting a little over excited. Hopefully somebody will have a quiet word, I'd rather have no prior notice of announcement and be pleasantly surprised then wait all week to be disappointed. As it happens, I didn't ever really expect any earth shattering 'huge news' yesterday so I wasn't refreshing my twitter all day in hope. Hopefully after Toovey has had a chance to assess things in the next couple of weeks, we might see a trickle of new signings to help steady the ship.

Trouble is to many are expecting new signings to appear just like that! The off season may have been a pantomime as usual but there is no magic wand, even Sooty's offal dust is found wanting! At least from what Toovs said in the T & A The Management (I prefer to think of them as Ron & Ron not Cha-Loicon_smile.gif have been trying to get some loan players in so I expect that will be the next announcements re Players, signings will be a bit later into the season from what he intimated! The season tickets bought pre admin will be honoured but whether you have to exchange them for the new ones I don't know but I expect you will!

Take a step back a second before posting something as daft as that. You could be like the rest and be getting nothing, Green got your money and the new club were under no obligation to honor them. The club might not have even existed a few weeks back. Take a look at the bigger picture and realise things could have been so much worse than paying a few quid more.

They are honoring your season ticket therefore giving you one for free. Green got your money and you could have so easily been part of the £2m of creditors who will get nothing. Look at Rohan and Moss for example.

I agree with this.
We discussed this in the pub last night. The new owners can't win on this. They are new owners - not Mr Green. They have given away maybe £200k worth of season tickets but want to set their own prices.
Would I then make all new season tickets the same high price or would I do what I thought was best.
I understand the frustration but the club went bust and 1000 people could have lost all of their money but have got a ticket given from a different owner.
This is probably the best situation all round.

Morning "THEE VOICE OF REASON" trying to antagonise posters on here will not prove fruitful, go back to your usual forum on the T & A with the other Bulls haters.

You think I'm someone from the T&A site, I've been called worse. Is this site membership part of a clique or are people deemed to be others because they haven't been here since 1996?
The T&A is full of morons, him included as they have let the idiots run asylum for far too long. I used to be SilsdenBull on there if that even matters, I came here after being fed up of what that became.
No idea why I have to explain anything to a 1 post poster anyhow.

To get your money back as a season ticket holder now you only have to attend 10 games. It makes the season ticket far more viable compared to recent years where missing just 1 game could see you lose out against pay on the day.

I doubt this has been brought about just because it will be seen as a relegation battle. That will likely be the case but I think the new owners know that there is a lot of goodwill to be rebuilt.

Not sure how you exchange some thing you haven't yet got, seeing as all I've got is a receipt! I'm guessing that all the ticket info disappeared with computers, best going up to Odsal.

I don't think he is trying to antagonise people. It was a rational statement about it being Green that did the dirty on people not the new owners.

Has anyone an idea how to redeem the receipt posted by the old club for a 2017 ticket? Not heard owt and season kicks off soon!

The club will be sending a email out hopefully Monday about the pre purchased season tickets. When I was at the club this morning I was talk to manager up there. Name gone out of my head. As soon as they have a Internet connection email will be sent.

Dane's flying back......no wont be that

He doesn't say who he is joining but it would be a very big signing (again) if he is coming to us.
If he is going elsewhere then why has that club left it so late when he could have been with them a month ago?
Fingers crossed as it would perk everyone up massively to have "possibly" the best halves in the championship.

Doubt he's coming to us. Probably Widnes who just lost Mellor for 6 weeks to injury

I think we new a Dane Chisholm type player to win us some games we will probably lose, if you know what I mean, we need someone with the xfactor

I think the re-signing of Thomas and Keyes indicates our intended level of spend. Chisholm is lower end SL or cashed up Championship level in terms of salary and quality.

It was nice having him and Moss whilst it lasted, time to move on.

I expect we will be looking towards Leon to direct things and open defences, just hope his body is up to a full season.

Toovey I reckon is a footballing man, Leon price is too old to play 80mins of football, this isn't a slight on Leon because he is still capable of playing in sl, but not for 80 mins, look last season moss and Chisholm had the speed to get through the defences of the weaker opponents we played, most of this league is a arm wrestle and that will tire Leon out and most of the kids too , sorry if I'm sounding negative

If Pryce can't play 80 minutes in the Championship then we shouldn't have given him a deal. Luckily, I don't believe that to be the case.

I think Leon is a fantastic signing, he won't play every game for 80 mins, but I'm sure Leon will bring a lot more than game time to the bulls, his cv is possibly the best in the whole of the rugby league, just wish he was 10 yrs younger, but still quality now

If people take a step back and look at it from a neutral POV, they'll realise the new owners were stuck between a rock and a hard place.

Option 1) You appease all the ones who bought from Green's Bulls, honour them and set your own prices to the same as those. This makes all those who bought them previously happy, but doesn't sell many more tickets at high prices when everyone knows relegation is very very likely with the awful place we're starting from with a patched together squad.

Option 2) You still honour the original tickets, but you set your prices lower now, knowing you have to try and get new people to buy them somehow. You make those who haven't bought them yet about as happy as you can without giving them away for next to nothing, but you upset the previous 1,000 or so who already had them.

Either way, you're upsetting a large chunk of fans. There just isn't a viable option that lets you keep both groups happy (giving partial refunds to previous bought tickets is financial craziness). So if you're going to upset a group either way, you go with the option that's still going to bring you some money in now. Which is Option 2.

It's really the only thing they could do.
