2015 - major missed opportunity, 2016 - stronger teams = harder task (no problem there then), 2017 - OMG What now!!!:953.jpg



OK from what i am reading about who this alleged bidder is, would it be unfair to assume that saving the Bulls may not be the primary reason for their bid.

So is it the Leo bid that has been rejected or the Chalmers bid? (I'm assuming they are different bids?)

Im confused and I feel sick, might just turn the Internet off for a while....

Would be stupid of him, as you mentioned that would mean liquidation and he gets nowt.
But he appointed GP with one clear outcome, he gets back as much as possible.
He isn't going to be allowed to regain control of the club, and no one is willing to pay him X amount so right now I'd say he is trying to force the hand of prospective bidders; pay me off or youre going to have to start from scratch, with the potential problems that come with that, i.e. Potentially Less season tickets, loss of players etc .
That would be a sizeable hole in the finances which could force someone's hand to pay MG back what (or close to) the sum he wants.

What has been so baffling about this Admin is that none of our saleable assets (players) have been moved on.

Any substance behind the 1.30pm rumour though?

Well given we've heard nothing on the bidder or their potential plans, I'm all ears to how you've come to that assumption? Unless you've just returned to stir some ? I'd say the latter is most likely on previous form.

Quote: Bully_Boxer "

You are 100% wrong but I can understand your touchiness. It was a genuine question seeing as the link is waste disposal and constant mentions of Odsal and landfill. As a RL fan I am as concerned as anyone to your future.

Surely with it being a case of crossing t's and dotting i's, it's one bid that's been rejected from Chalmers etc and that the other one is pretty good and should be signed off today?

Doesn't make sense given the earlier updates given by respected journalists like Sadler etc as well as the updates from Frank?

Hopefully this is just one of those cases of people jumping to conclusions and the admin has rejected one bid but accepted the other?

I'm assuming you're suggesting he sees Odsal as the perfect site to build a new factory/plant.(which it.probably is to be fair)

Theres a number of reasons why he wouldnt be able to.

Number 1 he would own the lease not the the land.

2. The council seem very keen to keep the Bulls at Odsal. Theres a diabetes crisis in this city and a strong Bulls with good community links could help counter that in a small way.

3. A load of new houses have been built all around odsal. Pretty sure they would have something to say about it.

Looking at the Leo website they do a lot of community work in Bradford, maybe he wants to give something back. Who knows.

Anyways all this rumour, counter rumour sounds like it could come to an end in a couple of hours.

Im nervous.

Quote: el red "The preferred bidder is the Leo Group, why you couldn't comment publicly is beyond me. We all use pseudo names on here to protect our identity. You can't comment because you don't know for sure if your info is correct. I'm sure you are well meaning as I think the majority of posters are.

At least the staff should know more by 1.30pm today. Then the rest of us will have to await the 'breaking news'.'"



To be fair El Red Franks been a very reliable source. With there been NDA i think i'd do exactly the same in not giving out the name of the group on a public forum.
