How do we collectively tell the 10 bidders that actually we don't want to take up the RFL poisoned chalice. It isn't the will of the fans and they shouldn't do it.

Cheers Inkers! Could be sooner than we thought looking at the other thread, but who really knows?! Its the RFL's ball and we'll have to see who and where they let play with it.

Indeed, I suspect a few of the bidders will have read these pages at least. Also given that its safe to assume no Bulls fan actual picked the joke SL option the numbers are closer to 85% in favour of League 1 I reckon.

I might come on here and rant about it. That's guaranteed to work.

10 bidders and 10 votes for the 3rd option. Got to be more than a coincidence

Think option 3, as it is simply barking, was intended to be just a joke, though I confess, if this were the T&A, we'd probably have to accept the ten as genuine.

Since this isn't the T&A rantboard, I can't imagine that they are really genuine opinions and are best ignored if we're looking for how fans really think.

I must admit that this has kept me awake at nights. Wondering whether HKR will miss out on their extra 2 points.

Too true.

It's beyond me why we should bother about a mid season jolly, which in itself, screws up the season as far as a being fair competition is concerned. Give 'em the two points....they'd get them anyway! I'm going to volunteer to be on the bench - so long as they promise I won't be needed!

Glad i'm not the only one then

Could never understand why the team that finished 5th last year should draw the favourites that were relegated from SL. Probably nothing to do with trying to fill the ground with the 2 best supported teams.

Thats obvious - its just the RFL favouring the Bulls yet again

In fact fat Nige is probably wondering how he can favour us more in 2018; options available =
A. If we manage not to get relegated in 2017, we take another minus 12 points until we do, or
B. If we manage not to get relegated in 2017, the rules change that year, and the team that is in ?th position gets relegated (obviously ?th position will be decided at the end of the season when they know what position we finish in, or
C. If we do get relegated, change the rules in 2018 so that there is no way we can get promoted even if we win every game that season (I doubt that we would)
D. If we get relegated, introduce a new rule that states any team that used to be in Super League called Bradford Bulls and ends up in bottom division (no matter what the team is then named) is automatically deducted 12 points each weekend so that other clubs cant accuse us of being favoured by the RFL

They could decide that any team renting a ground from the RFL have to play in the division chosen by the RFL

Yes thats another option,

Maybe we should re-title this post as "More ideas on how the RFL can unfairly favour the Bulls"

Erm, Celtic won 2-1! Anyway I'm sure the Bulls fans are more concerned about the HKR fan who is worried about losing 2 points from the Summer Bash if the Bulls start in C1.

Good luck and hopefully we get reacquainted sooner rather than later.

After what has gone on in the last 8 weeks, and now all our players leaving, I think there should be a fourth option added: 4. You know what, not bothered whether we start again or not.
