I suppose now they know the full facts. No club no players. Start from scratch with £150k funding.

Listening to the pulse it did sound like Leon wanted to remain if we get sorted. Seems very keen on signing thr youngsters up and this would tie-in with Rohans philosophy.

It's all very well people like Rohan and Leon 'pledging' to stay, but what if the new owners (whoever they be) decide to go down a different path?

I think its a fair assumption that those two guys are two of the top earners. Given the likely scarcity of funds, who is to say that the new owners might want to save on the salary. There'll be plenty of other (lesser) coaches that would be willing to coach the Bulls for a lot less than they're likely to be paying Rohan Smith!

Have any of the interested bidders yet confirmed that they intend to keep us full-time? I don't [ithink[/i that even Richard 'Available for any interview' Lamb has said that (correct me if I'm wrong)

Can't see Phoenix been full time but who knows.

yes, an unusual moment of harmony, possibly even the pearlfishers duet, mate: there is a big difference between use of the company name (eg OKBulls ltd, Bull ltd, etc) as referred to in the Mick post and the registered trademark Bradford Bulls, which can be sold by the liquidator in our case/administrator as was , without reference to the liquidation legislation.

IIRC isnt there a US sports outfit going under the name Bulls that we copied the logo from and might just have a say in the reuse of that trade marked logo? So perhaps the new name should be, amongst others (Freebulls, Bullocks), Logolessbulls, or we get that Danish company to sponsor the Leglessbulls?

Joking and FA aside, who gives a toss what the name or strip is as long as it is our team. Our dream again team.

Ross is back at the T&A with a fairly honest assessment of this whole mess www.thetelegraphandargus.co.uk/s ... rom_grace/

They may have little choice. With the lack of quality that's likely to be available on the market, they may have to bite the hands off any genuine quality that is available to have any hope of avoiding what we all believe to be an inevitable relegation.

Players leaving at a rate of one per hour

I hope Ross charged them an exorbitant fee for coming back and writing that article.
Make a man redundant and then ask him to come back and write for you only weeks later! Bet that was an awkward phone call

If they want any chance they would have to be full time?
Can't see a lot of present players agreeing part time?

To be in top 4 which no doubt has to be the plan next year, and even to survive this year we would have to be full time?

Most of the 'present players' will be gone. Our team, if there is a team, for this season will look very different to what was envisaged - and will have to be cobbled together from whoever nobody else wants.

And I think you are a bit optimistic if you think the Top 4 is 'the plan' for next season. More realistically it would be survival - and if we can avoid relegation then that would be amazing.

7-8 of your better players already gone, being reformed under the name Bradford Northern with a predominantly team of your youngsters with a few seniors.

Affordable contracts with win bonus incentives.

I'm actually encouraged by how slow that is.

Who's left I know Walton has gone to Fev and Oblison has signed for Widnes who's the others
