Lets not forget they are "iconic"
With relegation starting this year the stakes are even higher

Quote: wrencat1873 "This is the case in most administration situations.
Of course the new owners start with a clean slate, unless something else has been agreed with the administrators.
But, if this were ok, many clubs would go into admin and start a fresh.
Yes, this seemed to be a way of removing OK's shares and allowing a new start but, surely it's no different from ANY club going into admin, something which the RFL said that they wouldn't allow to happen.

It sounds like you are condoning the situation which, does come as something of a surprise
It's a difficult situation this. Unlike last time where we ran out of money, we have buyers READY to take over the club. Unfortunately the parties involved have been arguing. Been going on for so long that HMRC have stepped in, but OK Bulls Ltd in administration and allowed Bradford Bulls 2014 Ltd to take over.

how long were the Bulls in "administration" for under OK Bulls Ltd. From what i can gather it was an almost instant take over.

I'm no expert on the subject so feel free to correct me. I can see other fans frustrations.

Quote: EHW "i think the points deduction punishment is used more as a warning to other clubs, than as a punishment to the club in question. It is far too easy for a club to go into administration, transfer all the playing contracts and start up again the next day, leaving a trail of debtors in their wake.'"

Doesn't really work as a warning though does it, Kahn isn't involved so he isn't being punished, whoever takes the next club to admin won't be involved when they are punished. What's the warning? If you take a club in to admin we will punish the next person who buys it? Who's that going to put off?

Given all the other clubs were given a "hands off their players" when they hit the skids last year by Red Hall they obviously think they are.

There's also cost cutting at Hull FC now that Pearson is a lot closer to getting hold of Leeds Utd so we could have another club in administration before too long when he throws in the towel and gives up his rugby league experiment as a bad job.

Wakefield, under the Richardsons, entered Administration during the off season. They were bought from the Administrator before the new season began (actualy on the eve of the first game) yet they were deducted 6 competition points, later reduced to 4pts because Andrew Glover paid of a significant amount of the previous regimes debt.

No matter how they dress this up or spin it, Bradford have entered into Administration and should be subject to the same sanctions as Wakefield were, ie 6pt deduction reduced to 4pts if they pay some debts off.

Furthermore, HMRC had served a winding up order on the Bradford Bulls and no amount of smoke screening can change that fact! This was not just a mechanism for a change of ownership, I for one will feel deceived and insulted if the RFL come out and try to sell that line!

Fair points IMO. The RFL must take action or concede that they are a corrupt organisation without any integrity.

The date shown in the London Gazette with HMRC was the 16th January.
There has been some spin from the club since that date.
After signing 6 players in the off-season it is beginning to look arcane,arbitrary and appalling.

if anyone other than former directors or owners of OK Bulls are owed money by OK then it must be treated as going into admin and a points deduction must be applied.

Has the RFL been paid rent for Odsal or is that another debt to be shared by the other clubs....???

On the contrary, Khan has lost every penny he put in the Bulls, wouldn't you call that a "punishment"?

Other debt shared by clubs? I don't remember any clubs paying our debt.

Anyway for what it's with I wouldn't complain about the points deduction.
