Feel sorry for Noble - a bit part player in the master plan I guess but has a mammouth job with the players, the supporters etc. As a Bradford legend - he deserves better.'"
If Nobby comes in I think he will be fine. I would expect that the vast majority of fans will not bear any grudges against him, ok, many, and I for one, think it's not the best way for him to come back to the club, but he's a Bradford legend and loves the club.
He's not the main player in all of this. Not by a long shot.

Not if they've been made redundant. It happened to me I had to work for two months without salary and pay for petrol in people's vans off my own credit card. When the old/new owners bought the business I was given it back.

I heard one of his family members (brother?) was approched to take over, had a look at the books and didn't fancy it.

| If Noble comes back he will HAVE to earn the respect of the players and the fans. Yes he is a Bradford legend and will get respect for that but this year has been based on respect for Potter and loyalty for the club. Noble must earn the lost respect and it will be extremely tough for him.

The players don't really have a choice if they want to work.
We as fans on the other hand do have a choice. I'm absolutely disgusted by this so what do I do?
We still have to go in numbers but we can make our feelings known with a chant or two.
There's only one Mick Potter one Mick Potter,
there's only one Mick Potter!

| Oh I agree but I was talking about the players. Working for them and working for them respecting them are two different things. Us fans will be chanting theres only one Mick Potter IF we managed to get to Sunday.

"The Rugby Football League said in a statement that they were unhappy with the latest developments at Odsal. "We are concerned by the news that the official administrator of Bradford Bulls has made all the club's non-playing staff redundant.
"The governing body received no official notification of this action and is meeting the administrator Brendan Guilfoyle this afternoon to seek an explanation and clarification.
"The RFL is continuing to establish the facts behind this development and will not be making any further comment until we have spoken to all the parties involved."
Join the club.

| So the administrator is meeting the players tomorrow. No doubt they'll make most of the top paid players redundant (probably the ones that are injured/old/nearly out of contract) and keep the bare minimum to get through the season. Then apparently Nobby is coming in to coach for free.
They said that we were losing 100k a month so if they reduce wages by that amount they will be able to break even and carry on - with debts cleared by admin and caisley coming in and taking full control for a bargain price.
Only thing is, the players are gonna lose all motivation as their mates will have lost their jobs. And who's going to sign for us in the future?!

| Potter was building something. Really feel for him.
You can tell from the reaction the level of respect the players had for him.
Sad day.

| Unfortunatly it was something we clearly couldn't afford with the way our income wasn't meeting expenditure. Feel terrible for the players and staff but if we can't afford it we can't afford it.
