| The worrying thing is that the statements from John Wilkinson sound eerily like those coming from Peter Hood earlier this year....
"Short term cash flow problems..... no danger of Administration..... once we get over the immediate future.... long term future is secure...blah, blah blah"
We've heard all that, and look what happened to us  |

Done. 25/01/17.: |

To me it seems the only long term solutions are for the game to become semi-professional again or merge with rugby union.

From a purely financial standpoint I can see where you are coming from - but there couldn't be a merger with RU - just abject surrender and takeover ie end of RL in the UK. If you look at recent history the RFU make the RFL look well organised, plus at a grassroots club level most RU clubs have trouble balancing their budgets. It is only the international game and sugar daddies in the premiership clubs keeping them afloat in there current state. |

Unfortunately I don't work for the RFL nor do I claim to know the ins and outs of the licence system, however from the outside looking in there seems to be some faults with the system and the people who are at the helm are the ones to work out a solution. |

Don't you mean "be taken over by" rather than "merge with" ? |

Aye, and Eddie is hinting at it too. And, as we all know:

If Salford's woes continue should the RL community help them out too !.
(I guess Salford must have given some support for bulls financial situation !)
After the bulls woes, - maybe the same time and help has to be given to Salford AND all other clubs in future ?
RFL may be have started something they carn't stop ?

No reason to be snide against salford but if they are in this situation how could they have given support (financial i mean) to bradford.

As a Bradford and RL fan, i hope any team under the same financial situation receives the same amount of help as the Bulls have done from the RFL and 'other clubs/supporters'
Not sure if you comments we're a little 'tongue in cheek' but i'm not sure what other response you were expecting from the Bradford fans? |

How are Bradford & Salford's woes a reflection of the RFL?
