I'm not necessarily surprised. Although there was some 'backs against the wall' drive and optimism this time last year, we'd been relegated following years of progressive decay. This time round we've had a moderately successful season, and some things to feel broadly positive about for the first time in a long long while. However, it might just be nothing but spin. At this point, who can say? |

The phrase politically correct is in itself politcally incorrect so should be rephrased politically stupid!
If you like old type radio comedy/ dramas etc listen to //pumpkinfm.com/
Statistically speaking you have a better chance of getting dead the older you get!

Interesting observations from Robbie
"One of the problems we have in sports administration is that sport is emotional," he said.
"It's not a retail item, it's something that makes up the spiritual fabric of your surroundings, your community and culture.
"Sometimes sports administrators get drowned in the emotion and forget what the objectives of the business are."

We've heard nothing from the club for a while and no-one has mentioned the 'Gazette' recently, does anyone know if the winding up order has been rescinded or is it still in force?

It would be good to have something from the club to clear this up
A wall of silence simply allows people to feel uncertain / start rumours / fear the worst / make up conspiracies (delete as appropriate)
Either way, it can't be doing a lot for season ticket sales

The club said it was in the hands of the legal team might not be anything else to be said at the moment. |

Done. 25/01/17.: |

Why does it need to be in the hands of the legal team? Either we've paid what we owe or we haven't. All you have to do is ring 'em up and say "ow, you've had the cheque and you've cashed it and we can send you proof with a bank statement" FFS.

Pollsters doing Excellent job - say recent polls.: |

Unless we've paid it and the HMRC have mistakenly applied the credit to one of the defunct companies then slapped us with a default notice due to their error. I imagine the legal team would be pushing for more than a retraction of their error due to the damage done to our (slowly recovering) reputation....

That would be my thoughts as well.
I asked the question a few pages back... If the Bulls haven't done anything wrong, could there be a case for damages caused? |

2015 - major missed opportunity, 2016 - stronger teams = harder task (no problem there then), 2017 - OMG What now!!!:953.jpg |

| What damages? Have you paid any damages to the businesses that lost out in the two years previous to last years.
Must admit though there are some quite interesting theories being bandied around  |

"IF" it has been incorrectly listed then you could suggest it unsettles players, staff, sponsors and fans whilst in the peak of selling memberships.
As far as previous years, what does that have to do with the current regime?
"Theories" that says it all

Sorry you are obviously whiter than white. HMRC must have meant someone else in Bradford and just assumed it was you. Seriously though I thought it was part of the deal when the new lot took over. I know over at Salford Marwan had to take on some of the previous owners debts and they are now on their 3rd kit supplier in as many years as the last 2 took them to court.

Wow, all this time to worry about other clubs and no worries at home. It's great when you follow one of the big clubs isn't it? I know, it gets a bit samey when you're winning grand finals every other year doesn't it, but you really ought not to give in to temptation and try to take solice in another club's problems - or non-problems, whatever the case may be..

Ah, didn't know - saw location and assumed, mind there are some mini similarities....if we swap divisions and cut out references to grand finals!

Well our board is being over run with Fax fans at the moment, so thought I would have a wander round. Any news on the mistake yet?
