how many overseas players can you bring in, 2?

will the money you've collected in transfer fees be available?

Its getting worrying late to pick up quality players for next year unless some deals are well advanced down the pipeline.
It may not be a case of who we want, rather than who remains available.

Hood said last week that the Tadulala issue would be finalaised by last week-end. So far its the same deafening silence we have come to expect.

Personally I hope there are some announcements made pretty soon, cos at the moment I`m feeling very deflated with the confirmation of Sam`s move. Obviously, it`s been on the cards, and we all knew it was going to happen, but the reality has finally hit home.

Come on Peter Hood, put a spring back in our steps.

Lets try and unsettle the likes of Leeds and Saints by making offers to the likes of Graham, Roby, Eastmond, Webb, Sinfield etc!

Do you think the howls of laughter might put them off their semi-finals this weekend?

What's your squad looking like as we speak? ie current contracted players and confirmed signings.

the money you get for burgess will not go on players it is to pay off debt. JUST LIKE FEILDENS LESSES AND HAPE.YOU ARE THE NEXT WIDNES!!!!!!!

The club has no debt. Hasn't had since about 2002 or 2003.

hth.

The best I could come up with would be something along the lines of:

Halley
Sherriffe
Platt
Nero
Crookes
Sykes
Deacon
Lynch
l'Estrange
Hall
Menzies
Langley
Donaldson

Godwin
Kopczak
Scruton
Worrincy

with Hyde, Crossley, Tate, Olbison & Whitehead in the squad.

With a squad list like that it seems that you will have a very heavy reliance on a number of very young and inexperienced kids. You need at least 4 or 5 more experienced players (not necessarily world class) to avoid another season similar (if not worse) than this one.

TBH, if I were a Bulls fan, I'd be looking to pick up some quality experience (the likes of Furner was fantastic at Leeds) to bolster the team for 2 years, with the emphasis being on a return to the playoffs not next year but the year after.

If the kids have potential, then don't knock it out of them by overplaying them when they are too young or physically immature to handle it.

ps, I wonder if Nick Scruton is wondering if he made the right decision in leaving Leeds???

I dread to think what the Bradford side of 5 years ago would do to that team. Major investment needed, must have loads of room on the cap though?

We need backs more than forwards imo

Really worried by the lack of good rumours, usually there's a few names floating about but this year when we need IMO 4 new players there doesn't seem to be any of those 'worse kept secret type signings'

The problem is, there are no real quality players available for next season. However, as it stands there are a lot out of contract at the end of next season.
