Don't get this about Bratfut fans. I've always found them a friendly bunch. Yeah, they had a lot of bandwagon jumpers, but which team doesn't?

At the end of the day, if Bratfut can go under, any club can. We should all be concerned. Right now, we at FC have someone in charge who appears to know how to run a club. What about when he goes? What if we struggle, crowds go down, income goes down, suddenly we've got financial issues? What if Leeds run out of cash with a half-finished South stand? What if Wigan Athletic get new owners who don't like rugby and make their lives hard?

Sporting clubs live a precarious existence. Bratfut is a big place with a big support, and RL will be a worse place without them

Agree with that. Which is why we have to get clubs to where they are in a less precarious position. Then they can't start to reap the benefits of long term planning and investment rather than lurching from 1 short term move to the next.

Unfortunately the sport is still recovering from when the clubs decided to sell all their assets.

Tbf I read that as him being one of those people that spits when they talk, rather than someone actually spitting at him.

T.B.H. he should have realised this when it was apparent the said the "Roy Hattersley" spit-alike was from Huddersfield.

I always found the Bulls fans to be a decent bunch. Certainly preferable to the arrogance of some of the Giants fans whenever they visited Belle Vue, which seemed to be entirely down to them being given an atmosphere-less bowl free of charge and liked to sneer at Wakefield because we haven't.

There is no doubt that the league benefits from a strong Bradford Bulls, and it's a good lesson to everyone that no one is immune from a fast sink to the bottom. They are potentially taking another drop downwards, but I bet they will be back in the top flight and successful within a decade.

It's always amusing when people encounter one fan of one club - and immediately transfer that person's behaviour to the entire supporter base; and use it to justify their attitude towards that club. And when I say amusing, I obviously mean it in a supercilious, condescending way - typical Wakey fan.

I find it difficult to do such a thing. You are my point, a wakefield fan who is well versed and obviously educated.

It's clearly Green's fault but you have to say that the fit and proper persons test employed by RFL might warrant a review.

Given this is the second time in four years that an owner signed off by them has appointed administrators within 2 seasons.

You do realise a club is a brand name and logo - therefore not a person or group of people?

The people that have made a balls of it this time are different to the ones who did it last time and different to the ones who did it the time before that.

I mean if you're happy going public as being angry at a brand name and not a succession of chancers - allowed to take hold of said branding - then fair enough.

You should show this post to the ladies!

So the question is , what is the ' Model ' that can sustain and allow a Bradford RL club to grow ?

Does that model include Odsal ? , just how much money does a new owner need to be willing to lose to get to this model ?
