Having only started to follow the game in my mid forties five years ago and been a London season ticket holder for the last four I'm not imbued with the history of the sport like others but also have a more detached view of Bradford's struggle for survival. I certainly don't wish the club or it's supporters any ill will but should they go bust and have to reform would the game be worse off? As a London supporter I regularly read and I am told that there shouldn't be a team in London due to low crowds etc. and that there are heartlands teams (e.g. Halifax / Featherstone) more deserving of a franchise that would bring home gates of 10,000 and away support of 1,000+ and make the sport stronger. If Bradford go then surely one of these clubs that are in position to replace London can replace Bradford next year. In two years time London will lose their franchise (unless there is a miraculous turnaround) and a reformed, regrouped Bradford given its significant and passionate following will be in a strong position to bid for a franchise. Am I being over simplistic?

Petty authoritarians aren’t man enough to challenge the actions of a person face to face; instead they incite a forum of rumour, innuendo and half truths, and impose rude sanctions to discourage those who dare question fairness.
