The club don't own the ground, so the question of spending millions on redeveloping it is moot.
All our stadium eggs are firmly in the Newmarket basket; for good or ill, that's the reality of the situation.

| I hope you guys genuinely get the stadium sorted.
However wasn't your license awards AFTER you went into administration that your promised to improve your stadium. It's now clearly not fit for purpose.
Do you think you should have your license revoked? Or is this the corrupt RFL?
Been trying to resist digs but after reading some comments and some fans to pretend like Waley have NEVER been done any furthers by the RFL and have ALWAYS done thinhs honestly i just thought it would be interesting to hear your response of why this should be brushed under the carpet?

Go on then. I'm bored, so I'll bite.
Improvements were made after being awarded the franchise. These brought bv up to minimum standards at the time.
These standards have now been removed so the considerable cost to improve a stadium, which we don't own and intend to vacate asap, could have been spent elsewhere.
The current situation is a temporary HSE issue, mainly to do with reinforcing crush barrier footings.
The reduced capacity could hit us financially for a couple of home games, but the problem should be sorted by the 3rd home game, hopefully bringing the capacity back to 12000.
London's capacity will remain at 5k?
So, to all Bradford fans who wish to visit the only stadium worse than theirs, remember what Fred Pontin said, "book early". .

Not trolling it was genuine question. Some have said we should lose our license because we entered admin. But if license rules sre still bern applied couldnt Wakefield lose there's for not doing the stadium inprovements.
I really hope Wakey do get Newmarket sorted, despite some hostility at the moment I want RL to grow as a sport and I believe Newmarket could genuinely take Wakefield forward with their chairman. See you at Bell vue 2 weeks

I don't want to start crossing threads but who's said that the Bulls should be thrown out of SL?
I've seen a number of posters, mainly Wakefield, ask why it was that Wakefield were threatened with relegation if they entered Administration but Bradford haven't been, that's not the same as demanding the Bulls get booted out of SL.
I've made it very clear in my posts that I do not want Bradford relegated but they should be the subject of a 6pt deduction with the possibility of a 2pt reduction if they pay a significant amount of the debt to creditors.
The rest is people just looking for fairness and an even handed governance from the RFL.

stadium will get sorted I can vouch for that, there is a team of us who are waiting for the go ahead, the previous owners hadn't had the work done properly.

me for one,
I've had enough of the games, the Bradford RFL have played a blinder hanging on in there until the start of the season, even with a 6 points deduction they should still clear the relegation zone with the players they have,
had they told the truth and made to do the same as us then things would of been different.
come the end of the season there will be one club seething I bet

Surely it would be better going into admin last year when there was no relegation. Fans like you make me laugh, everyone's against poor Wakefields like they've never broken the rules. Again you got a license as your promised to do up yor stadium. It is no longer safe and not fit for purpose but this time you PROMISE work will get done on it. Some of you were even moaning you got Salford first up in the fixture list!!!
There are NO rules that say if a club go into admin they will be relegated. You might as well as for 10 points if you beat Wigan and 1 point for beating London.
No club as been relegated from SL when into admin. The RFL have been consistent in handing points deductions!
But don't let that stop your vendetta!
Good luck with the stadium, maybe this time the work you've always promised will get done. Convenient it's after licensing ends! Maybe instead of paying for a squad you could afford last year you should have made sure your ground was safe!
Sorry for biting to the genuine level headed Wakefield fans out there. Who agree that Bradford should be deducted points. It's those that want a club dead that annoy me!

| So can we say with any certainty that all 5,500 of us at the Wakey V Bulls on a cold wet thursday night will be hugging one another in a spirit of camaraderie?
Stevo will beam down at us, Bulls and Trin alike, high fiving on the terraces and brimming with mutual respect.

We bought, erected and paid for £500,000 worth of stands but don't let that fact spoil your ranting.

You got ripped off then. I'm sure that Metro don't pay half a million quid for their bus shelters.

£500K to see a tired old stadium get a bit of a face lift or £500k to see your club go into administration? I know which I'd rather spend the money on.

Aye, you bought a couple of over priced bus shelters instead of paying some of your players AND let the RFL pay off your tax bill.
