Pollsters doing Excellent job - say recent polls.:



Potter, Duffy, Duckett, all coaching staff, ticketing staff, shop are all redundant.

Players now meeting BG tomorrow for their news.

Seems unlikely BG will go to tonight's meeting.

So we have some players left. But no one to coach or train them. There's no one to cut the pitch or paint the lines for Sunday, no one doing kit or boots.

It's a crock

They can't employ someone else to coach the team, someone doing it for nothing while the club is in admin is a different matter.

IF BNoble comes in now, this is an absolute disgrace.

I am a loyal fan, and heard that there would be huge announcements leading to a review, then admin and noble coming back in before our troubles were announced.

If the administrator coming in happens to follow this path, it will look awfully suspicious given the relationship with CC. Ill hold my breath but get the feeling this will be a dark hour for our great club

Quote: Lizzo "I know that my knowledge of employment law is poor at best, but isn't it a POSITION that becomes redundant, not a person? If that's the case, then how can they bring anyone in to coach under the current circumstances?

I wish all the staff who have lost their jobs today the very best for the future, and thanks for everything you've done for this club'"


Again I am no employment expert but that was my thoughts as well you make the position redundant not person

Anyone out there still think this administration lark is a good idea, and a relatively painless and risk-free way of resolving problems?

You all know I hoped and prayed the club would not be forced into administration. And that I hoped and prayed if it was, there would be a prepack to minimise the collateral damage.

Time now for the white knight to ride in? First job to bayonet the wounded.

Just tweeted from...
Martyn Sadler @MartynSadler

Super League clubs to meet on Friday morning, I hear, to decide on Bulls strategy. A new owner will need to be known by then.

The phrase politically correct is in itself politcally incorrect so should be rephrased politically stupid! If you like old type radio comedy/ dramas etc listen to //pumpkinfm.com/ Statistically speaking you have a better chance of getting dead the older you get! Thank god only when you find a religion that passes the truth test!:13554.jpg



Wouldn't be suprised if Mick ends up at the Paramatta Eels, their Coach Kearney under a lot of pressure cause of 2 seasons of poor results

According to BBC website:

Guilfoyle, who claimed the club had just 10 working days to save themselves from 'extinction' upon going in to administration, is now looking for someone who would be willing to take on the job of coaching the Super League side on an unpaid basis.

"I'm hoping to find someone to come in for the short-term who would be willing to work for nothing," he continued.


I wonder if Noble is willing to work for nowt?!

So, sack all the key staff now, while there is no actual bid on the table.

Then, white knight miraculously appears, on his white charger and with his bayonet not really looking like it has blood on it.

And makes his bid, the administrator having done the dirty job of getting shot of the employment and TUPE liabilities.

And steps in with his own team, secure in the knowledge that there are no impediments to him appointing them. Such a shame the administrator found it necessary to take such precipitate action so soon before the bid was finalised, but hey ho, life's a bitch, eh?

Sure bloody well is for the poor sods whose long service and dedication to the club has just been discarded.

Wonder if the administrator suggested to them that they could stay on without pay for another week, to see if a buyer appeared before the deadline?

WHY SACK THEM ALL OFF FOR THE SAKE OF A WEEK?????

Do you really need to ask?

I sincerely hope a white night comes in soon. Keeping the club alive is important, no matter what level you have to start at. Something to build on is the most important thing.
Unfortunately that will undoubtedly mean some unfair decisions will be made along the way, like the coaching staff getting the push. Although the could probably go to tribunal for compensation as this sounds like a terminated contract rather than redundancy, there will be no money left by then and they will be just another unpaid creditor. Any new business is unlikely to buy that debt as there are plenty of new staff to take on for no fee.

[quote:1pqtnbtj]Every player in our squad could probably earn more money with another club. But they prefer to sacrifice a few extra quid in their back pocket to share special memories. And playing at a place like Old Trafford on a night like this makes it all worthwhile.[/quote:1pqtnbtj] Kevin Sinfield:982.jpg



Quote: Adeybull "Anyone out there still think this administration lark is a good idea, '"
Was there really an alternative given how insolvent you were?

Regardless, I feel very sad for all those who have lost their jobs and all Bulls fans. This is not a good day for Rugby league.
