| The problem seems to be that whoever takes over the club seem to think that all the past is wiped clean and that they are taken on their own merits. Perhaps this SHOULD be the case but we have been stuffed up by various owners for the past god knows how many years. Ehat's the old saying: 'Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me'. The owners should realise that this means the management of the club as a whole and that not each new management gets two goes at fooling the public.

Even if they did, they used up their two a while back.
Lies, lies and more lies. But everyone stop moaning and give them your money. Come on cash machines, put your blinkers back on and hand over some more dollar.

| I am tempted to toss a coin in the air for a extra £60 I have the choice of watching wakefield or castleford, and in all honesty I think wakefield have a outstanding chance of doing something this year looking at what the teams in super league have added to there squads

| Bradford Bulls seems more remote from us the supporters and fans than ever before.I know who the aliens are though. Can only hope the lines of communication are more definitive to the players. C'mon Mr C don't offer excuses, don't fudge...just give us the reasons.........
you may have a crystal ball, we certainly haven't!

| I think Cha-Low are inevitably suffering from the sins of earlier incarnations of the club, though since I'm sure they are well aware of recent history, they should have absolutely expected that. Previous managements have asked us to trust them and we've been let down. It may not be any great fault of theirs but, after all that has gone before, trust is only going to be given when it's earned and truth is that so far we're just getting the same old rhetoric as before.

| Pretty much everything they do seems illogical to me! For instance, why announce (or perhaps not) a new coach the day AFTER season ticket early bird? Would you not try and announce it a few days before or extend the early bird to take advantage of any positive news that might shift a few more? And more frustrating is they still haven't come clean about what the walk up price will be, is it a secret or has somebody not had chance to pluck a random figure out the air yet? I'm still half expecting them to announce they are only opening the main stand next year despite selling tickets for terrace and seating... probably offering the main stand buyers a free coffee or something as compensation!!
From the outside it all seems very shambolic and gives me little confidence to believe the latest lot selected by the RFL are any better than the previous 'fit and proper' owners.

Giving them the benefit of the doubt I would say that their [plans changed drastically after Lowes illness. I think that what is going around in Chalmers head is to look for a way out.

| Pretty depressing all round, not helped by looking out of the window and seeing that the promised snow never actually came!
As Bulliac said, the current owners are paying for the sins of the previous owners when it comes to 'trust'. That's not necessarily their fault, but they should have factored it in and made damn sure that they went the extra mile to keep good channels of communication with the long-suffering fans.
In fact, they've done the exact opposite! In place of the over-inflated promises of the last lot, we now get total silence. And when they do actually deign to tell us anything, it is increasingly coming across as made up on the hoof. This latest episode with the coach / shirts / season ticket presentation is just the latest episode in this sorry tale.
As I said on another thread, the name of new coach is bound to come out this week, meaning that the big reveal next Sunday will be a damp squib. I've no idea why the don't want to use the new coach as a spur to shift a few more season tickets, unless its going to end up being a big letdown and the new coach is going to end being Leigh Beattie or John Bastian.
I feel less invested in the club now than at any time since way back in the pre-SL era.

| I think some one hit the nail on the head earlier when they said about charmers wanting out, as someone once said ( the truth is out there ) I think Andrew charmers should just come out and tell the good people of Bradford that he wants out, because he obviously doesn’t understand what Bradford Bulls means to Bradford Bulls supporters, either that or we boycott the club, sometimes you have to be cruel to be kind, do the right thing charmers, LEAVE

| If they were any truth in that Chalmers wanted to sell club to Koukash, we may find out more next week as Koukash has tweeted transfer of ownership will be completed by end of next week.

| I’m sure that will mean Salford to the trust. The problem is we have the same people supporting the owners as have been in the background supporting previous failed owners. It is not just the owner, he is taking advice and leaving things in the hands of people who have failed the running of the club time and again year after year. These people have a lot more influence than people want to believe and because of who they are get given a soft spot in people’s hearts. The new club was a perfect chance to rid the club of the whole management and give the new owner a new chance to bring his own trusted people in. But the reality is everything is entrusted with previous failure. This was guaranteed to happen

| Here's a thought for you
Coach was appointed Saturday or possibly earlier and is involved in training, unveiling was due for Sunday as it was a good PR day by doing it at ST day, weather put a hold on this until next Sunday but coach will be involved this week? Roger Daly has been quiet this week, does he know what's going on but doesn't want to say?
