| Marc Green told a meeting of staff and players, only a few weeks ago, that he would not put the club in admin.
Why not ask some of your friends at the club, that is not a guess or trolling it's a fact.

| Interesting that the RFL are already talking about sanctions i.e points deductions, loss of funding etc
Quote: "“Any decision regarding membership of the RFL and possible sporting sanctions will be made in due course and are at the discretion of the RFL Board.” '"
Thanks for the support guys

I have no need to. I know what was said but even if I didn't, Green has stated formally all over the press in recent weeks and months eg 4 August"“strongly reaffirmed the position that he has not looked for and will not consider sending the club into administration.”
What do you expect him to say? Which business ever said,"ell, actually, we're looking at administration in a few weeks?

| Indeed, and the Omar precedent suggests that any new applicant for the licence (not that I expect there to be one) would have to forego half next year's funding.
If they don't do that, then maybe Omar should see his lawyers as it surely can't be a condition imposed for him alone.

| Whilst Green is still making positive noises and the RFL are mumbling lip-service and non-committal support, Bongser thinks that this may well turn out to be a very black day for THE NORTHERN CODE. Perhaps, yet again, expansionist dreams are placing the very heart beat (stet) of the sport in jeopardy in order to satiate Knight Rupert.
Even as a Leyther, Bongser is right with The Bulls. Sorry that, by a very long chalk, he is unable to bail them out. Good Luck! Yead oop n keep gooin' (for all of us)

Bongser cannot, of course, speak of Debaser's intake, but it can be taken as a truism that first-mentioned might have had a few over the eight (generally half seas over the eight to work in an old phrase). Which bit puts Debaser in mind of the possibility / probability / definicy (?) of intoxication that Bongser might qualify / expand etc on his comments?

I have now. But clearly not enough.

Debaser, Bongser is reminded of a sign in some halls bar in Bradford (many years ago when Bongser was a student at The University there) that read something like:
This bar is dedicated to gentlemen that can buy their beer, drink their beer and yet remain gentlemen.
Lesson for life, learned in Bradford - and Bongser does try to adhere to that underlying sentiment.
He does, also, recall a pub, close to campus, named The Fighting Cock. Bongser went there with the rest of (a pretty decent) B University RL team that was only playing Newcastle Poly (now something like the Uni of Sth Shields - they hadn't won all season in the BUCARLA league). The next day we led 24-0 at HT only to lose 24-26. Legs gone.
Bongser bought his ale, supped his ale, but couldn't even remain a mediocre rugby player.
Bongser tells you this merely to let you know that, when he voices his support in Bradford's present predicament, it is from someone that lived in the city and played the game there (to the best of his modest ability). He genuinely hopes that things work out over there

Hey, I went to Bradford Uni too. I didn't manage to do anything quite as energetic as playing a sport though, but yes, lots of beer.

| Drinking beer, especially in Public Houses, is another sport that is threatened. That, however, may be a topic for an Off-Topic thread. Nice to meet you, Debaser.
