Maybe.
I remember when Wire put a 1m fee on Harris.

Yes I know that. Point I was making was, Would the RFL allow a club to sign a player who would take them over the salary cap if the club said they were going to immediately loan said player out to get them back under the cap for the remainder of the season?.

| If the administrators come in and sell players won't the rfl do what they did with the crusaders players? No one from bulls will count on the salary cap? Or the foreign quote?

| Is it my impatience but I simply cant understand why there seems such a long wait for the EGM. Hood's resigned to his fate and the longer any transition takes the more vulnerable we are to predators tapping up our assets. The good of the club has to come before the good of any individuals. Sort it out!

Think its a legal requirement. They have to give all shareholders a certain amount of notice. Thats straightforward for the bigger shareholders but they also have to notify the 1000+ people who only hold a handful of shares dating back to reformation in the sixties. Think 28 days notice has been mentioned before. Im not sure but would assume that dates from when Caisley managed to get backing from more than 50% of shareholding i.e. not when he originally called for EGM in T&A article.

| Sad though things may be at Bradford, I remember the Wire having to sell both Sculthorpe and Harris to help save the club from going under and very little sympathy coming from our neighbours or from across the Pennines. I find the irony in this situation almost amusing, but knowing how I felt then I can honestly sympathise with the Bradford fans.
One alternative is to go into administration and form a new club called Bradford Northern! an iconic name and unique in sporting clubs, got to be worth a thought.

That would never work. As the buying club would you run the risk of your new purchase picking up a career/long term injury after you've paid your transfer fee.

| It sounds to me as if Bateman moving on is a given, this just looks like one of those headlines to start off the auction.

Clubs with big money backers can afford to take that sort of risk. leeds loaned hardaker back to fev, hudds did likewise with mcnally. Hardly be firstly time its happened. Probably more of a risk with players at back end of their careers as their more likely to get a injury that could force them to retire. If a young lad gets a imjury that keeps them out for a year then they've still potentially got 10+ years ahead of them. If same happened to a player 30+ then theres chance they wont ever recover to same levels of performance. Obviously theres always possibility of a really freak career ending injury at any age but there thankfully relatively uncommon.

| Worst case...
Bateman goes for 150k - 250k (not bad), who we left with to build a team around?
Addy, Whitehead, Burgess, Donaldson, Olbison, O'Brien, Lulia, Gale, Crookes, Kear, Kopczak. Thats just to name a few.
I'm still hoping that this is just a load of old e, but if not, we've still got a strong squad who under Mick Potter's guidance, and playing alongside more experienced pro's like Diskin, L'Estrange, Langley etc, Could turn into something special

There's also the reasons that the board was streamlined the other year ie many of those on the board spent a large part of the year outside the UK and this had caused the club to miss out on signing players.

13554.jpg 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!
Thank god only when you find a religion that passes the truth test!:13554.jpg |
