Even though last year the money from Bradford fans went into the Bulls coffers as the Giants donated 40% of gate receipts from Bradford fans back to you.

If it was 40% of the gate receipts from the Giants support then that would be about 8 quid TBF.

Bad Fail.
Huddersfield gave the Bullbuilder Hardship Fund £2,924. Bradford Badger and I put the Hardship Fund accounts together, so we are better placed than anyone to know. If you are going to try and score cheap points, at least try and get your facts straight, old boy? For once, eh?
Some thought Hudds had been shamed into it, after the magnificent gestures by Leeds (to Gargoyle) and the superb Warrington (to the Hardship Fund). Personally,whatever the motive, I know for a fact that the recipients were very grateful of every penny that was contributed to the Hardship Fund, from whatever source. There was real hardship there, and I believe the Fund made the difference between there being a club for OK to acquire, and not.
But, lest we forget, Hudds have received 1/13 of the Sky money confiscated from Bradford. I understand 5 clubs did not vote to take the money; were Hudds one of them?

Huddersfield gave 40% of the ticket sales for all Bradford Bulls fans who attended the Galpharm stadium. As i understand it 1500 plus attended. At an average of £20 per ticket that would work out at approx£12,000.
For it to be as low as £3000 you would have been getting your tickets at £5 each average. It is possible that the 1500 supporters were made up of 1200 under 12s and the rest were full paying adults
This was widely reported at the time.
If the money did not go to you were did it go or is it possible that it went via the RFL or maybe straight to the directors.
you may have been involved in the hardship fund maybe you can tel us if you were handling all of the finances of the Bulls club

| I told you the amount that was paid. If you want to call me a liar, come and do it to my face. The amount the Hardship Fund received is set out clearly in the Hardship Fund account that all Bullbuilder Members received as part of the annual report.
"Straight to the directors"??? Shows you have no understanding of the situation whatseover. The company was in administration at the time.
£20 a ticket? Ever heard of VAT? You have to knock that out first.
I have told you what was received by the Hardship Fund, which was the stated recipient of the money: see this I just copied of a FB page:
Quote Straight to the directors="on FB"
Adults £18
Concessions (Over 65) £12
Students £12
12-16 years £8
Under 12's Free
Junior Swaps tickets are available from Huddersfield
NOTE: Ticket prices increase on game day by £3
Coach Travel to the game is available through the Bradford Bulls ticket office for £11.
Huddersfield Giants will donate a percentage of tickets sold in the John Smiths Stand, both pre sale and on the day to the Bullbuilder hardship fund.'"
Note both prices and my emphasis. That makes it clear that there was only ever one intended recipient.
Now, I can prove what I said. Can you?
(None of this is any criticism whatsoever of Huddersfield, btw - quite the opposite. I said above how grateful the recipients were to everyone and every organisation that donated to the Fund. Just a rebuttal of a significantly inaccurate figure being tossed around by someoen whose credibility on this forum is pretty low to start with).
