No one in their right mind would buy a player from Bradford at the moment and to be honest even the players would be better waiting to get a bigger signing on fee.

Except the creditors will need to be convinced that the best solution is for ABC to trade the club out of difficulties. I have seen administration rejected by creditors because quite simply, they want their money NOW

Thats not going to happen here.
IIRC itb was HMRC that issued the winding up order and they have agreed the extension and there is no point in any other creditors tring to wind them up.

When is an offer in fact not any offer at all?

Answer: when it's the "offer" for the Bradford Bulls.

"a spokesman for joint administrator Brendan Guilfoyle, of The P&A Partnership, said the offer from ABC was only an “indicative bid” and a “starting point for discussion” rather than a formal offer."

If there's no money to pay the players then surely they become free agents? Otherwise they could be sat there twiddling their thumbs and not getting paid because nobody wants to pay a fee for AN Other.

If the club is liquidated the players do become free agents.

If thats the case who will pay the players in the meantime roofaldo?

The administrator. That's part of their role. It's not hard to look these things up. If you haven't the brain to do that, please don't try and troll. I feel bad having a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent.

So when are they going to get a points deduction

I just asked you a question, nothing more.

No need to insult people.

I dont think a points deduction can be given until the new owner is sorted out (or not)
If a buyer is not found there may not be a club to deduct points from.

The administrator would still need the business to generate sufficient funds to be able to pay the players and cover his own costs.
If things get any tighter they would be forced to sell some of the players.

or they could have another bucket collection...when are they due to play Leeds again
