They are in fact proof positive that Mr Moore was so far out of his depth back when he was going to "buy" the club from OK, that it's no mystery as to why the RFL are now standing their ground. He claimed the summer concerts were part of a trio of "business strategies" that would get the club back to where they belong. Unless he meant Championship 1, then that's not really working out to well for him or the club, is it?
Your trying to switch attention to another club, this time, Huddersfield Giants and their benefactor is nothing new. You tried it back then with London......this is the problem with the Bradford Bills.....too much time worrying about other clubs rather than sorting themselves out.'"
Making stuff again, are we? I never tried to switch attention to London. What I actually did was say that YOU were the one shouting about how bad Bradford were so that no one would look at the mess London were and still are. I went on to say that you didn't need to bother as no one actually cares about London.
As for the summer concert, yes it may have lost money, but the idea behind the staging of it isn't a bad one. Odsal is used barely a dozen or so times a year, but the club have to pay out rent and maintain it all year round. It's a huge drain on resources, so why the hell not try and get more use out of it? Last year was a perfect example as midway through the season the Bulls didn't have a home game for the best part of 2 months, so that's a huge gap in income especially when you consider (and I know it's hard for you to consider any facts that you've not yourself made up) that the Bulls were already down on received monies that year after giving up half their Sky just to be allowed to remain in the league. |

Well done on editing out the relevant part of my post. You know? The part that explains the point I was making.
And you tell me to grow up?

So why don't you grow up and explain why it would be funny for a guy who has backed his local club for 16+ years to pull out. Why Is that beneficial to RL? Why would the supporter of a club in perpetual financial crisis - who have shafted local creditors for millions - wish other clubs to be such an embarrassment?
there is a lot of sympathy for the many decent Bulls supporters, staff, players and suppliers. For the owners and RFL numpties there is none. Likewise nothing but contempt for the Bulls fans who make excuses for the screw ups, castigated many of their fellow supporters with a different pov and wish other clubs would lose their backers. Pitiful.

Ok, so why is it funny if the Bulls are relegated? That was what my comments were in relation to. I guess it's hard to see both sides of an argument from way up there on your pedestal.
You answer your own points in regards Bradford and how their relegation is funny first and maybe get down off that high horse before you hurt yourself. |

So, what does THAT have to do with anything? Don't just put up links to old threads, make an argument to back up what ever point you're struggling to make |

Very much so. And I really think the use of the word "iconic" is foolish. The most iconic thing to happen at Odsal was that cup final replay with the massive crowd. Now, the overhead shot of it does look very impressive, however it was 60 years ago and, apart from one or two mainly cosmetic changes, Odsal is EXACTLY the same now as it was then. |
