What exactly should we be thanking you for at this stage?
Taking our best players or the fact that your Chairman might have a think about how he get the disgruntled Bradford fans over to your place? He hasn't suggested anything yet but he has got a few ideas.
Erm...thanks???
Even if he sent a free limo service to my door and gave me free entry to the game I won't be going.
I still haven't decided if I'm going to bother with the home games yet. I don't like how everything is playing out at the moment.

| I'll be heading over. Feeling like if I don't start making the effort with the new team then there's no point in bothering with RL. Think we've all been through too much to not go and after all the twists and turns i just want to watch a damn rugby match.

This, and Hudgell had the nerve to cry the poor tale about Adam Walker then does the exact same

| Difference is we supported Adam walker through his trial, so we did expect some loyalty from the guy who we paid his legal fees, and his agent and himself stated he was signing with Kr this season then went behind our backs.. with kieron moss had no club in existence to play for he wouldn't of being offered a contract til this week and he flew across the world to play for Bradford. So he had to find alternative or go home. There is obviously no similarities with us

| No interest how the deals came about. Fact is that our best players have signed elsewhere and we no longer have a competitive team. This is our problem but it doesn't mean that we like it. None of this was created by the fans. In fact we've gone above and beyond the call of duty for the club. To sit and watch other teams rip our already thread bear team apart is sickening. I currently have no desire to watch Moss, Addy & Clark lining up against us.

To be fair we've only signed Moss as it stands from this situation

And we do not always play to plan.. we will win but it will be closer than you think I have faith in Kr but think it will be 30 to 16 to Kr. We will pull away near the end. So why not pop along see if I am right and enjoy a game of rugby'"
The problem is I don't know if it will be 80, 30 or 16 because as of today we still have no coach or players. If we have something resembling a championship team on day 1 I'll be there, but if it's a scratch team to make up the numbers I won't. Have to wait until we at least make some signings and play a friendly first mate before we know if there'll be 1, 10, 100 or 1000 of us traveling over.

It's doubtful we'll have time to get a friendly in. We could play the first half of the season as friendlies before getting down to the business end of the season. I believe this has stood us in good stead in the past.

| Fortunately, our guru Lowes taught us that the first half of the season is irrelevant, so thankfully we'll be able to take full advantage of that this year.

| I think the downside of this plan is that I think we will be in the bottom half play-offs where your points (or lack of) carry forward.
Does anybody know what odds the bookies are giving on us staying up?

Regardless of what you did for him, KR relegated Walkers contract null and void. Bulls in admin/Liquidation Moss contract null and void. Sanits and KR took advantage of that. I'm happy Moss has found a club and glad he will still be in this country so we get to see a bit of him as he is a very exciting player and a lot better than quinlan

It's all connected. We were on the slippery slope for a few weeks before it went belly up. A lot of the players left after failing to make the playoffs. The writing was on the wall from that point.

Huddersfield seem to still think we're playing them on Sunday. I do have a suspicion that we'll get a lot of signing news in a lump, and I wouldn't be massively surprised if we did have a 17 for Sunday. I also would expect the new owners to not have much time for communication given the amount of things they must have to put in place in such a short timeframe. And they must have agreed a plan to put a team out with the rfl as we all have access to the criteria any owners had to sign up to, including plans for a team.

| It's hard to understand how players for a club that couldn't make the middle 8's last year have picked up contracts relatively easily. I know people will say we are left with the dross but if those players that have gone had got their fingers out last year this may all have been different.

Heaven forbid anyone should try and make an effort to help out, you keep battling on the way you have been for the last few years cos that's gone real well hasn't it?
