Well at least they have given us an updated figure, but I'm really starting to doubt everything Hood and Co tells us in these 'press statements' now. It all feels like spin to me.

They have announced 480k.
Decision makes sense to me if that close. And I suspect the possibility that they may be able to announce more news than just the pledge then.

You're being made to look like idiots by your own club.
'Leeds game will be our last'
'We need the money by Friday or that's it'
Lies.

Your "quotes" are indeed incorrect. |

Never liked Kevin Costner, or any other Robbing Hood!!!!: |

This is typical of this administration. Empty promise after empty promise. This is damaging the good will generated in the last ten days.
What does "approaching 480,000" mean? One proud more than the last total is approaching whatever figure you want to pluck out f he air!

Quote: Liane "I can't see anything that says it has been moved on bulls website!'"
Bradford Bulls chairman Peter Hood this morning urged fans to make a final big push to get the Club's Quest for Survival pledge over the line.
"On behalf of Bradford Bulls I want to applaud all the fans, local businesses, other supporters and the rugby league community as a whole for their thousands of Pledges of support. It has been a humbling experience for all of us at the Club for which we'd like to express our sincere gratitude.
"I also want to thank everyone who was at Odsal Stadium last night for their contribution to a wonderful advertisement for the Stobart Super League.
"Leeds Rhinos supporters turned out in force to cheer their team and in so doing lent their support to the Bulls' cause, helping to swell the holiday weekend's largest Super League crowd.
"With staff still processing pledges that have come in overnight, and are still coming in this morning, we are within reach of our first goal of £500,000 with current total approaching £480,000.
"Many people have indicated they have yet to pledge. We have therefore decided to keep the pledge open until midnight on Monday."
The Bulls will then make a further statement as soon as practical after the Bank Holiday weekend.
In the meantime people can pledge online at www.bradfordbulls.co.uk/questforsurvival or by calling 08448 711 490. |

Would folk prefer them to announce it has failed and it's insolvency for us? When this close?
Banks and businesses do not reopen till Tues morning so nothing could happen before then anyway.

Saying they had let the club fold for the want of 20k would do a whole load more damage ffs! |

You sit there and be happy that they're willing to take your money and constantly lie to you. You've all been emotionally blackmailed by your incompetent owners. Do you really think you'd have been allowed to disappear by the RFL? |

When my club didn't exist it was still bigger than yours:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_8.jpg |

I thought they needed it this weekend or game over. That's what they told us, or it's what they very muvh tried to paint a picture of if not actually saying it. That's why the promised an announcement today.
I've gone from being on the verge of a nervous breakdown to wishing I hadn't pledged and back again in the last fifteen minutes. Given the complete lack of trust it's possible to have in these people I have nothing but the assurances of liars and people who have been wrong that any of this is real. And when it comes to crunch time the announcement is that there is no announcement. There goes any prospect of closure.
I'm really very angry indeed with these morons now. If they haven't learnt yet not to outright lie to us like this yet then there is no hope for them. |

This is a total joke from Hood, are we getting the "it's all over" gently 20K short?

It'd be tempting to wonder whether they've already met the target and are using the 'just short' message to capitalise while the Bulls fans have got their wallets open. Certainly now they've got the Bullbuilder folk onside it makes sense to keep going and make a few bob out of it.

But, given the Bank Holiday, why not just make the deadline midnight on Monday anyway? That's what people are saying.
I just hope that this 'moving the goalposts' doesn't create ill will as we move forward |

I understand what u are saying here, and by no means did i mean by my post that is what i wanted.
Just meant that i was full of false hope that the announcment the bulls had made it, was going to be today so its a big letdown that they haven't been able to announce it. |
