Urgh. What’s the point anymore?



If they end up on dual reg at Dewsbury then I’m done. Clear reason why you shouldn’t be able to invest in 2 clubs.

Are we into single figures yet for the squad next season?

I'd be surprised if the club sell many more season tickets. I hope they aren't relying on another 1000 season ticket sales because I just don't see it happening. Obviously some won't bother going to Dewsbury at all and those who haven't bought a season ticket up to now will probably just wait and see how things look by kick off time. Just about the only thing that gives me hope is that JK has proven he can get decent results from a tight budget. But it's a tough sell for the club playing out of Dewsbury.

Here you go, simply print this list, cross out the ones we know have left, and start building your own new team around who's remaining....(removes rose tinted ! )

I’ll be going whether I get a ST or pay on the day, depends on my cash flow and timing but I support Bradford and can’t support anyone else and whilst we’ve been delivered a stick on many occasions I’m still a fan

Mikey Woods name hasn’t been mentioned for weeks, wheres he gone?

I feel sorry in a way for jk, but I bet he is on a decent wedge anyway, he must be to have bought into this plan to start with

I think that sums me up.



Part of me wants to call it a day but I just can’t.

Whilst I appreciate the point all the comments regarding team is decimated are slightly inaccurate when you consider it was paid for and built on sand foundations. It’s not really a like for like comparison comparing. 2019 squad to what is likely to be on the field in 2020. It seems clear that the likes of Mini, Keyes etc would not have been retained if we had tried to live within our means so losing them is inevitable. We now seem to be spending what we generate and if attendances fall so does the budget .

What a sad day.

Agreed, must be terrible for you mate.



Best of luck to Elliot. He always gave 100% and I’m absolutely gutted he’s had to go.

What an absolute crying shame that we didn't get to see the 2019 team enjoying further success in 2020 after their efforts this past season. With a few well placed additions, we'd have had a cracking team to challenge for the top 5. JK has a proven record in these circumstances, but has he got the stomach for this challenge? Seeing the guts ripped out of his team must be heartbreaking. Just hope he's made of sterner stuff than I would be in his shoes.

Really do feel quite numb about it all. I’ve know for last 3-4 week something like this was coming, just didn’t know where he was going. I know somethings I’ve put on here without been able to go into too much detail has hinted that. Gutted he’s no longer at the bulls and absolutely gutted his dream his over, and mine. Happy that his immediate future is sorted. But still absolutely gutted all this has had to happen

So there is a benefit from having him involved.

Unless they manage to get refunds. Surely there must be case for been mis-sold them when you consider the advertising slogan that was used to promote sales and whats happening now.

Roger I’m a firm believer that things happen for a reason, this might be the path way to great things for him, thanks for the memories Elliott good luck and enjoy your rugby

It's still being used......

But was it built on sand ? We've averaged around 4000 fans most weeks with 7500 for the last game and the two cup games with 10000 and 6000 respectively all paying higher prices than all the other clubs in this division.It's fair to say that the squad was too large but there were no superstars in it. The players we had were what you'd excpect a club with our fanbase paying those prices should be able to afford.

So what has happened to all that income ?

Well put.

We can just about get a team out with those signed up. We need dual reg. can’t see why anyone would sign permanently with us.

Plenty of players will be available, they won't all get deals so we can get amongst the negotiations.

THis is part of our problem. WE end up with 38 player squads and then never play half of them

Hasn’t Grant left?

Another leaver? Apparently FA has left BullBuilder. If true, that would be a real shame.

Who's got the best players that we can borrow via Dual Reg? I'd argue Wigan. Dunno if they've DR with anyone as yet.



Lads we have still got allow us to put a decentish team out. Hopefully we can add a touch of quality and mix it up mid table and spring a few surprises.
