Special favours for Bradford: http://www.superleaguefans.com/champion ... y-rfl.html

I guess holding the super league to ransom is the name of the game now by the Adminstrators at Bradfird Northen Bulls - "For the deal to go through we need the RFL to agree to the Bulls remaining in the top division and buying the ground back from them". - Who do you think you are Glasgow Rangers - and look where they are now.

Can we all get the RFL to pay are wages for the next month aswell - absolute joke this is

You haven't asked about Bullman or Bullboy.

Bhuna man and Punkah Wallah Boy ?

Hello? McFly?

It's our not are. But your lack of grasp of grammar aside, and I'm going to put this in nice big letters for you to make it easy to read; [sizeThe RFL are NOT paying Bradford's wages for the next month. Bradford have asked for an advance on the Sky monies owed to all clubs and they are NOT alone in doing this. Several clubs have also done this both this season and in previous seasons[/size

Isnt there a fundamental difference in that with Wakefield we were on the verge of having the licences re-evaluated anyway, and it would quite clearly have been wrong to pre-judge that process.

Whereas Bradford are asking to fulfil the existing licence, and be judged in three years with everyone else. Hence the mention of SL clubs voting to keep them in.

As for wanting to buy back the lease to Odsal, it seems funny that the people criticising the RFL for buying it are the same people criticising the Bulls for wanting to buy it back. They are ridiculous.

Its funny to see how certain factions are trying to use Bradfords plight

The RFL paying them the sky monies due becomes the RFL paying Bradfords players wages.
The owners asking for guarantees they wont be immediately relegated becomes the RFL guaranteeing Bradford a new licence
The owners asking to buy the lease for Odsal back becomes the RFL giving them it back for free

But if their continued tenure in SL is decided by a vote of the other SL clubs, how can the RFL give that assurance?

It's different but similar - giving them the nod is an admission that the democratic process that exists to make the decision is a sham, just as giving Steve Parkin the nod that WTW would be granted a new licence would reveal the lie of the application process.

Well, I'd imagine that the RFL would hold a meeting with the other SL clubs and they'd vote. In much the same manner they did for London a few years back.

LOUD NOISES!!!

Point of order....
A couple is 2
A few is 3 or maybe 4 at a stretch
7 years is neither....but I get your drift

Bradford will be playing in SL next year.......move along, nothing to see here.

The basis of the licence was to make super league stronger, wakefield, celtic crusaders and now bradford have made super league a laughing stock around the world. The RFL need to take a grip of the situation. I am not sure how? A president has already been set Do what you want, spend money you don’t have screw people out of their hard earned income avoid paying Players and taxes and we will still give you a licence. If bradford get thrown out (demoted) can they take it to court as the RFL let wakefield in after they miss managed their business and still got a licence?

I say demote them. they had their chance and blew it. I said the same about the other clubs to.

Before you have a go at me, look at yourselves. How many of you cheer when a benefit cheat get thrown in jail or have to pay all the money they swindled and more. I would say all of you they take you’re hard earned money. Bradford and I know it’s not just them, it is them that are being scrutinised right now, and they owe the tax man. I don’t feel they should get away with it. I wouldn't. I am sorry for the supporters. But they should take the medicine and re start at the bottom. It may take a while but they will be back and stronger.
