If rumours are to be believed the RFL have provided bank accounts, money for ground upkeep and are now paying for the academy.

In effect Nigel Wood is running the Bulls

This explains everything.

I've been hoping it was all a dream for just over a year now, it gets more surreal every day and I'm not just talking about the Bulls.

I think we're using the wrong word here - surely nightmare is more appropriate?

If what redeverready and some other on other boards are suggesting is actually true (14 team sl and restructuring of the second tier with some sort of franchise/licencing) then I'd remember when you posted that if I were you, I wonder how close you might be?

On cha-lo, my very sceptical benefit of the doubt is pretty much gone. It's clear they don't have the means to finance or run the club at anything over and above the absolute minimum to fulfill the rfl fixture list and for us to restart, again, next year. Miserable.

Uncle Marwan, Uncle Gary and cousin Eamonn have all been to iconic Odsal today.

The plot thickens. Why would Eamon Holmes be there?

Well unless they each brought a Prop forward for us, I couldn't really care less who visited Odsal.

Holmesy could do a job for us at prop. We are lacking some relaxed muscle up front.

While sat in the car I was listening to BCB and he said Big Nige had emailed him as a reply to a question clearly stating that next season there are minimal changes to the system and it will be 2019 when the changes come in. Woods also said the bottom two clubs will definitely go down.

So there we do have confirmation that there is no secret plan for us. Mick says he has it in writing so I can't see other clubs allowing anything else happening. No wonder Sheffield don't want us to have Chisholm till it is nearly too late.

I have always been very confident but after today and the last few games that confidence is fast disappearing and being replaced with the concern of certain relegation. The Dewsbury game in two weeks in massive.
If we hadn't just being saved from obscurity I would be expecting rumours of the club being in serious financial condition but surely that won't happen so soon after admin 3 --- would it?

Believe Mick if you want but it's common knowledge among Rugby league change is coming and it's not going to be liked by certain clubs.
