Then it would be best to cancel or postpone it. Pooring oil on the fire won't help anyone.

For me the future now lies with a supporter run club in CC1. We have enough support to get behind such a venture. It can not be that expensive to fund if Hemel Stags and Northampton can get in. I would be willing to put more cash up for this if it means we can get rid of the scumbags responsible for the downfall of a great club.

it was organised through some face book group "the firm"??? not on here best check there. I suspect the answer will be".........................."followed by a "f### knows mate."

I would suggest there seems little point until we see all the moves play out, I highly doubt any fan involvement today could change the tack that seems to be set.

What would be the chances of the fans buying the club post liquidation. I know it would have been better before they forked over £500k. But once liquidated, surely it's down to the best bid for the creditors, bar melting down the stands for scrap.

If the fans could pull enough money to pay the skeleton of the staff to the end of the season and pay the creditors the bare minimum, the fans could own the club, through a trust. Yes it's not alot of time, but how much would be needed for this?

The AFC Wimbledon of Rugby League - nice idea but won't happen!

Once a liquidator is appointed, there is no club. Or staff. Or assets other than ones to be sold to the highest bidder regardless.

No-one has to pay the creditors anything regardless.

There was no way the fans could do anything before administration, since the majority shareholders called all the shots. And once in administration, there was always going to be far too little time to do anything - I think most people do not realise just what legalities and other issues would be involved in the fans making a pitch for a club on this scale, and the timeframes for doing it.

But that presupposes that a white (red?) knight won't miraculously ride in, after a suitable interval, now the remaining impediments are being swept away.

Fair enough, I did wonder whether the fans could cause a steal from Caisley with a minimum payment and some gesture of future repayments to the creditors, by the end of the season.

But if it's going to be a last minute rescue then I guess the fans would not even get a look in.

Why not? Plenty of other supporter groups have done it? FC United of Manchester, AFC Wimbledon as you said. I am convinced a new club could be formed with the help of a supporters group. What is the alternative if nothing happens by Friday?

I'm not talking about saving the club as it stands, but creating a new entity by the people who matter, the fans.

Well said that man, Rochdale has a fans run club in Championship one , that`s the time when you find out who real fans are, most people on here don`t seem to care whose running Bradford they`d even take CC back as long as you stay in Super League.

This is a golden opportunity to build a brand new club run on proper sustainable lines inheriting a good supporter base from the existing club. Leave the scum who have destroyed our club to the skeleton of what's left over. We do not want or need them. i'd rather have a few years in the Championships and build a 'decent' club than continue with you know who.
We the fans can do this if we really want to.
Do we really want our club run by these people?

The meeting could end up being just like the pledge. A good idea, just held too soon.

Need to let the dust settle first otherwise people will be disenchanted at the apparent lack of practical options

Potter has said on an interview to be shown on calendar tonight that he may attend the fans meeting.
Good luck to all at Bradford. This is a terrible state of affairs and I really feel for you fans as I know how I would feel if it happened to my beloved Rhinos

Unable to attend this tonight. I'm sure some points will get brought up on here afterwards.

Incidentally, we now see what the 'change of circumstances' was that forced to meeting to have to change venue....
