| Quote HamsterChops="HamsterChops"Ok I asked for that.
The reason I asked the initial question of where the info came from though was that there's a spoof twitter account doing the round for Toronto, announcing various player recruitment as signed and sealed, including James Laithwaite and Richard Whiting, which some are taking as the real deal. When actually the official Toronto website and Twitter has only announced Liam Kay and Craig Hall as far as I've seen.'"
Yeah I realised afterwards that it isn't the official twitter account of the club. However, it's not a 'spoof' account, it's clearly run by somebody affiliated with the club, and the official account even links to it on their page. Fleming and Crossley were both linked to be making the move to Toronto earlier in the season so it wasn't much of a surprise to see their names on the list.
I guess time will tell just how accurate the list of players turns out to be.

I suspect the list will be almost spot on. As you say, the players mentioned have all been linked with the club anyway. It's either announcing things too early, or it's guessing based on rumours, MG style.

| Quote HamsterChops="HamsterChops"I don't mind Radio Leeds. In fact, I thought Phil Caplan spoke excellently about the situation. Not sure who the other bloke was, as it didn't seem to be JD who normally does it. Missed the introductions though so never heard.
Schofield the less said about the better. He's just trying to keep himself dining out on the sport despite offering absolutely nothing useful to it since he retired.'"
Phil Caplan's exact words were "you do wonder about the financial position of the Bulls".
The club should make sure Yorkshire radio get a letter from their solicitors and they are banned from the ground.
I'd have BBC, BCB and T&A in too for a reminder of what acceptable journalistic standards are.

| Yorkshire Radio have a lot to answer for. It was their initial report that started the administration hysteria.
I don't listen to Yorkshire radio at all so I don't know what angle they approached this. I once listened to coverage of Wakefield v Bradford and the commentary was so wakey biased that I've not switched it on since.

I don't mind yorkshire radio. They give a lot to the sport. Most games covered (rather than bbc Leeds which flicks back and fourth between games) and they have a really good 2 hour program on a Monday at 6. It's a really good show IMO
However if I was the Bulls I would be tempted to take legal action against yorkshire radio for that tweet. The ramifications for stuff like that are HUGE. we're trying to rebuild the club and yes we've had a massive set back with not making top 4. But putting a tweet that we're 48 hours away from administration for third time is quite frankly appalling..Firstly from a business point of view. How must sponsors feel seeing that tweet. Secondly imagine if you're employed by the club or a partner of a player and you saw that tweet. Poor stuff. Was their source Mick Gledhill? Who gave me a chuckle when we was condeming the media for putting scaremongering stories on social media. Irony.

| I believe that Last Tackle thing on YouTube also suggesting admin was happening, although I'm going on someone telling me rather than seeing it myself.

If Mark Green says your squad is finished for next year I would be worried. It will be the same as the last 3 years, poor retention of good players and recruitment of championship cast offs. You will be called the Bradford Broncos next year! you have signed a lot of players not required in London (two more to be announced) All nice lads but average Championship players. What does this tell you? Very sad times at Odsal, weaker next year than this unfortunately.

Since you seem so informed, please tell us what our squad will be for next year then?
