| I think everything is been covered up, I also think Kear won’t care as he will be on a decent wedge, so he will say owt, we have signed 2 new players and was told a few more will be signed and a duel reg would be announced something in back of my mind had 2nd dec about signings,,, yet again nothing from the club, Kear also said less friendlies this year again a load of bull,,,

Appreciated.
By my reckoning thats 15 that have at played 1st team for us (excluding the 1895 cup game at barrow) and the 2 new lads.
Of the 15
Yeah.
Whilst we can obviously put out a team, it feels much like 2017 when we were seeing young kids getting mullered every week by grizzled Championship veterans.

| You would think that Kear of all people has the contacts to get us a grizzly old Championship pro if that's what we're lacking. There were a few SL forwards knocking about in CH1 who just picked up the phone from a coach they respected asking for a bit of help, so it clearly happens. We do need to make some signings because as things stand I'd struggle to look forward to the 2020 season. Facebook would no doubt tell me to "just be grateful you have a club to support" because that's the sort of inane guff that gets spouted.

In defence ok JK. Chalmers offered Hunslet and York a friendly which JK didn't know was planned.

| T&A has us linked with former Hull FC prop Levy Nzoungou. Yes I had to double check how to spell that
The article also has a quote from Sawyer basically saying that JK has free reign to spend our player budget on whoever he wants. I can't decide if that's a vote of confidence or if it's Sawyer getting ready to pass the buck for when/if this season turns into a disaster...

Or that the budget is non-existent so the point is moot.

| How could Kear not know about pre arranged friendlies, and if that’s the case then all should be null and void he isn’t at the helm anymore, so now we have same amount of friendless as last year with around 12 players less, you can’t write this crap, one word unBULLievable

Didn't Sawyer say at the very beginning he wouldn't be involved in recruitment to avoid any suggestion of 'conflict of interest'.

| With our current lack of players being signed and the large amount who have left, I can only see that the probable plan for the Bulls is to tread water by avoiding relegation for the foreseeable future until we (maybe) reach the fantasy of getting back into sunny Bradford.
When you look at the quality of the players the teams at the top of the division last year are signing at the moment, and then the huge amount of talent we have lost and not replaced I can't see us being anywhere near the top half of the table next season. And that's with 'our' second-string HB back on loan from Hull KR too.
For the Bulls to have sold such an uncooked product, playing away from home, and after selling our young stars to 1000 season ticket holders is phenomenal work. But how far we have fallen to think that selling 1000 season tickets is a target.

You mean act with financial sense and learn to walk before trying to run? If some of the previous incumbents had taken that approach you may well have managed to get out of the mess begun 7 or so years ago.

The one constant factor throughout all the shyster owners we have had is that they all stated that the club would live within its means. It is only when the business fails (because they haven't done this) that us poor fans find out about it and it all unravels.
While what you say isn't untrue, it isn't in the realms of what the fans can influence. We can only listen to the statements/lies and hope that everything is okay. Although I'm sure every one of us would say "Pay the pension contributions".
Despite my current feelings about the Bulls, I take a lot less notice of your pessimistic postings since the Wakefield chairman took you to task from your 'in the know' comments by utterly disproving them and making you look quite silly.
Perhaps listening more, trying to understand and not spouting off smug observations would be prudent?

You need to change to a dentist with more up to date magazines. Also, the war is over and we won.
