Interesting. Can't see the Gateshull/Shuddersfield conspiracy happening then.

Sale Sharks are reportedly willing to pay a percentage of the break clause as they are pushing more and more for sole tenancy.

right Redeverready its time to come clean....are you Marwan Koukash?

Dam you got me surprised the ruse lasted so long.

I'm Spartacus!!!

Well you sure as hell don't look like him, how do you DO that?

Reportedly where? SS pay rent to the Stadium Management Company, just like Salford. The bars, food and other events at the stadium are also run by the SMC so what benefit would they get in having the place to themselves?

SS all ready have the naming rights, the lease on the shop, have their own training ground in Carrington so in effect only pay to use the stadium on match days. Salford being there makes no difference to them, so why would they pay to help them move?

On a separate note the SMC has just reported a loss of £1 million for the last year, so even if SS were hoping to buy the stadium outright why would they want a tennant who pays over £300k a year, does not impact them, to leave?

Its all gone a little conspiracy crazy on here. I genuinely don't really believe any of it, as with the application of Occam's razor we are where we are becausewill have to replace Dunnie swimming facilities eventually, but there would be uproar in Bradford if they go all in with the Bulls with our financial record. And this stuff takes years to hammer out as well.

* This is the RFL. Their incompetent ineptitude astonishes still. They have sat around and watched the sport wither and die, both in participation and attendances. Lower league clubs are in huge financial difficulties, they constantly blow the chance to make the game more popular, they gave away sponsorship to a truck company for free, they sold the TV rights to a company without bartering them up (and by doing this actually reduced the amount of games people can watch!) they make up and change rules to the competition as they see fit. Do you think they are capable of such a magnificent, Machiavellian scheme? Honestly?


Its like the Paul McCartneys dead story. Why would you go to such lengths to cover up his death (including plastic surgery for the replacement, police bribery, etc) just to try and break the news over the following years with cryptic clues on your albums. We are where we are for a number of reasons, but it is for more realistic, and dull, reasons than I have read in this thread.

[sizeOf course, I may be wrong. But none of this seems likely with our luck[/size

don't know about any of rest of conspiracy theory but plans for replacement swimming pool/ sports (albeit on a smaller scale than dunns) were announced months ago. to go on odsal sedbergh site afaik.

Bloody spoilsport!

Excellent post.

I think maybe something on the lines of

Nigel Wood "Well, Swinton are rocking lets expand the championship, if we keep my future bulls, erm I mean the bulls in an extended championship it wont be at the expense of anyone and everyone will be happy!"

Ralph Rimmer "Sod it Nigel lets go for a pint"

NW "Come on Ralph less of the beer talk we need to sort this I've got championship chairmen breathing down my neck telling me how much revenue they will lose out on we need them in the championship"

RR "Lets talk closer to the time, lets go to pub now for a pint"

NW "Ralph theres business to attend to! And what about the summer bash! KR will go up! if bulls go down there will be 1000 topside over the whole weekend and we wont get any money whatsoever!"

RR "Mmm summer bash love a beer in Blackers! Look Nigel we going for a pint or what?"

NW "Ralph is that all you think about!!!"

RR "Tell you what Nigel, you dont want a pint I dont want the Bulls! F*ck them send them down"
