| Perhaps the announcement will be who's actually on the playing roster? Considering they have only officially announced Leon Pryce, we've just worked out the others from social media and the teamsheet on Sunday (which still doesn't actually confirm whether those players have signed or are on trial).

A simple 'squad news' announcement should Suffice in that situation. I might even add an 'exciting' in there if we've a few top players signed up that we were previously unaware of.

| I’m not sure what it is but I get the feeling if it was properly “huge” we’d have heard a rumour by now. There were rumblings about Toovey beforehand for instance. If it was to do with players (either loans or transfers) that would definitely have come out via the rumour mill.
It might be to do with the ground but I suspect that may take some time yet – if it happens.
I suspect it’ll be a combination of shop opening, season ticket deals and sponsorship deals. The club will want to get money rolling in while we’re all feeling generous and grateful and before we start getting stuffed each week

| I was promised jaw dropping for a new coach and my jaw actually dropped. I've now been promised huge.

| ...unless of course it's relative comparisons of our club's size when it didn't exist to those of some clubs that have never winked in and out of existence I don't see how they're going to pull 'huge' off without either players or stadium news.

| Wonder if some of the stuff that was mentioned in the Admins report as Sub Judice is finished or even if Roberts meeting has taken place?!?!? Or maybe.... just maybe....Cha-low have been down on bended knee and the tea lady has signed a three years deal?
Honestly, I don't think I can take anymore optimism so I am going for a more moderated 'Meet our new flatmates! Bradford PA!'

| Maybe it's a 'huge' announcement in terms of the amount of things to be announced and not how spectacular a single announcement is?
If we are officially unveiling the signed up squad, that might be a huge announcement as we would have 26ish players to get through.. that plus ticket prices and perhaps shirt news would be a 'huge' amount of things to announce in one go

| Well huge to me means sponsorship deals, a cash investment or redevelopment project.

| We are going to be the Bradford Bull Elephants, and they will be introducing our new mascot Nelly, a 45 ton African bull elephant which will do a parade lap before every home game.

| Thinking about it, it can't really be that huge.
The RFL haven't allowed enough time for the section of Wakey/Fax/Hudds fans who were salivating at the thought of carving up our fan base to get their mouth-foaming accusations of favouritism/excessive cloth use/delusions of granduer off their chest. They wouldn't let Cha-low fan those flames just yet would they?
Imagine an announcement on selling the land, surrendering the lease and building a stadium with RFL offices at this present moment in time?? It would lead to mass apoplexy amongst the already rabid?
TotalRL's forums would collapse, RAB would be invaded and drenched with infected slobber, calls made for the new Bradford jersey to be made of horsehair would abound, demands for self flaggelation by all Bulls fans before each game, 10 Hail Mary's, 5 Our Fathers...darkness for 40 days and 40 nights, cats and dogs living together? It's too much to contemplate...

| I'm certainly not getting my hopes up (again)
I'm expecting it to be something and nothing - and then, if it actually is 'huge' - I can be pleasantly surprised.

| Wasn't greens first big announcement that they'd put a pattern of concentric circles on the pitch?

| I won't be the only one who's cynicism is now so deep it's technically a tattoo. So when I read huge I assume it's that they've relaunched golden gamble worth an extra 50p.
When you say huge you set a certain expectation and I'd love it to be accurate.
