Quote: Frosties. "rumours suggested nine points.'"


I thought the maximum was 6 Frosties?

Quote: Cibaman "I'm hoping this is a case of an Administrator taking an extremely pessimistic initial stance to lower expectations before miraculously finding an unpalatable solution sometime next week. The club claimed that they had sourced a possible £800k last week but needed another £400k. Its possible that the potential backers are waiting for that shortfall to be wiped out by the Administration process. But it doesnt look great.'"


The one glimmer of hope is that the would be new investor(s) didnt want to throw cash in to try and fill a massive void and that instead, they want the club without debts, so that they can start from a level base.
As an outsider looking in, you would think that a RL club with 10000+ fans should be able to continue and for the sake of their fans, lets hope the do.

Practice doesn't make perfect. Perfect practice makes perfect. - Graham Lowe:26316.jpg



Sincerley hope they survive, but it's likely any buyer will wait until the 11th hour to make a move in order to drive the hardest bargain.

As somebody who until now has defended the license system to my mates, I'm beginning to wonder how despite all the claims to the contrary, it's working? Three clubs in administration in three seasons, and one of them liquidated?! It just doesn't stack up.

Quote: Inflatable_Armadillo "I think, unlike Wakey & Cru that it will probably be 6 points because they have gone into admin mid-season as opposed to the closed season.'"


Shouldn’t you be concentrating on Stadia matters and stuff icon_wink.gif ?

I’ve no idea how the points deduction is worked out, you maybe correct regarding a mid-season collapse as opposed to closed season, however, Wakefield’s was right on the cusp of the new season as opposed to Crusaders, but both got same four point deduction?

If we do survive this season, the challenge will be to keep as many as possible of those fans having lost our best young players and restored season ticket prices to more realistic levels.

All these people with wish lists of Bulls players to snap up make me sick - as they did last year re Wakey. I hope the Bulls survive as intact as possible.

If they get liquidated then their points are not going to matter as they will not exist. I am sure Bradford are not that worried about the points and just want to avoid being wound up.

Why? you are talking about young men some with families. I doubt they can support them in the Championship. If they can secure their future then good for them, the more that get snapped up the better. It is not their fault the club was mismanaged and the fans were not willing to pay anything for their season tickets.

Question - if Bradford liquidate, do all the games they've played void and the teams that beat them lose points?

I would imagine Yes, if they are unable to complete the season.

Probably just award a win for every team who played them and a win for remaining fixtures. Otherwise it wouldn't be fair as Leeds would potentially lose out as they play 3 games against them this season.

Good point and I didn't think about that... but it will still adjust the table, because anyone who has played them and lost will gain 2 points.

I assume they will adjust the points for & against as well?

Quote: Mr. Zucchini Head "The trouble is all of their best players who other clubs might be interested in are youngsters. Bateman, Whitehead, Burgess, Crookes etc. If these all leave it will rip the heart out of the team for the forseeable future.'"



What would that matter though? Performances on the field are the last thing that the RFL take in to consideration for licensing. If they do manage to get through this, and its a big if, then as long as they are sound in every other aspect it will give them time to grow.

But it will adjust for everyone as everyone will be awarded a win for every game against the Bulls. For the points difference, they could just say 0 or a win by 10. Just guess work at the min. Knowing the RFL they'll probably let current results stand and award wins for the remaining fixtures.
