| I wonder if they will try and make the most of Odsal itself- i.e. will BPA move in and even see speedway come back?

Would Super League tolerate curly corners?

Now who's obsessed?
No conspiracy or cover up, but a definate change of ' tack ' from the RFL after the SL clubs meeting, believe what you want, this is an internet forum , it is for discussion and expression on opinions, and if you feel the need to ' stalk ' me, feel free
You're rambling, mate. Deep breaths. I reply to posts, not posters, so don't worry about being stalked as honestly I have no designs on you at all
As for the RFL, I'm not sure what the point of any meeting would be if they weren't going to listen and take into consideration the views expressed at the meeting. So far as I can see, the RFL have been pretty consistent throughout.
Oh and ta for pointing out this is an internet forum. I had thought it was a pilchard.

I am 99.9% certain that Mr. Khan will already have been promised the retention of Bradford's SL license. The "no conditions" stance is simply the RFL's public sabre-rattling.
I don't believe for one minute that he has bought the Bulls without assurances and no-one will ever convince me otherwise.
As to the mini-licensing round - purleeeeaaaassseee!!!
Now that the Bulls have been bought there is not a snowball's chance in hell of a license being given to Fax, Fev or Leigh in preference to the Bulls so just give them the bloody license and stop wasting everyone's time!

He's not really lying.It is too early to say.That is,too early to say yes,the club will remain in the top flight next season.Got to go through all the charade first and in a couple of months time,say it then.

| The question that really matters, IMO, is:
Have they bought the old club (taking on the historic debt) or have they only bought the assets? If the latter, then handing them a licence would be borderline paradoxical. A mini-licensing round could well be the most embarrassing thing EVER. Worse than calling your primary school teacher 'mum'.
I really hope (if it is a newco) they (the governing body) bite the bullet and put licensing out of its misery. Interesting experiment, but this would mean it has failed. Why would anybody ever take it seriously again?

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

| Shame on any of Fev, Fax and Leigh if they participate in the farce of a mini-license bid. Why waste much needed money to give the RFL the veneer of going through due process, knowing full well that there is even less chance than ever of being awarded the franchise.
The RFL would probably state that the teams were unsuccessful in their application because of the short time-frame needed to step into SL (i.e. 2 years early)
Surely, even the most blinkered of VT'ers would admit that there is no prospect of Bradford not being awarded the license?

The trouble with this sort of conspiracy rubbish is that the conspiracy theorist has a 50/50 chance of the outcome being what he or she said, but would take that outcome as being "proof" that the conspiracy was correct.
Cracking post, and I'll bet you managed not 1 single giggle, smile or grin while you did it
