It looks like we are victims or circumstance this time -

The RFL who bought the ground demanded all outstanding monies owed to them are paid immediately - and not over a period of time as previously agreed

Which was the exact same amount as they bought the ground for

and RBS has seriously cut/withdrawn their overdraft facility

The bottom line is they don't have any cash flow due to this which has put them in the position they are now in

On the up-side, if they have points deducted for going into administration that probably means we will not finish last this year.........every cloud and all that icon_wink.gif

I hope we are bigger than that, but it is good to remind them of their previous position. I wonder what Luke Gale thinks of going to a bigger club now?

Hoping they have a knight in shining armour to save them, SL will be worse off without a Bulls team.

Welcome Quins Kitties born 02.04.09 - Purdo - Determined, loveable with a "can-do" attitude. A born leader. Louie - Big, white and fluffy. A very noisy prop forward. Harley- Cute and gorgeous (just like our no.9) Well, I couldn't call her Chad, could I? Update on Quins Mogs :- Purdo - deffo leader amongst Mogs. The Capo. Louie - turned out to be more like Louie Spence than LMS. Re-named Judas. Harley - Cute but not as gorgeous as our no.9. Oh well, at least I haven't got a Willy.:simpsons/017.jpg



Is full-pro RL actually sustainable long-term? The clubs would be better off semi-pro.

I feel sorry for the Bradford fans but I don't like the Bradford club because of their lack of support for us. (and they nicked The Worlord and turned him into a championship player icon_wink.gif )

The RFL licensing system is a complete farce and the Bulls spent money on players for 2012 that would have been better spent on the Bulls surviving as a going concern.

I wonder what this would mean for the game on the road. Week off if there were no Bulls presumably?

Points deuctions only take affect if the club go into administration (i believe).

I suspect they will find a saviour somehow, but its a terrible mess. the vast majority, if not all, RL Clubs are running on empty, but that also applies to most foot ball clubs if you take out the Man Uniteds. We shouldnt wish for any club to be thrown out or for points deductions to save our baco. i for one hope they come out of this, a great old club and the last ground we played a play-off game on!

Although my first (knee jerk) reaction was 'up yours Chris Caisley!',I have to agree with what you say about Bradford - I'd forgotten Odsal was where we last appeared in a playoff game, seems like a lifetime ago!

What will the RFL do with the bomb crater that is Odsel when there is no team playing on or in it?

Quote: Colly2 "The RFL licensing system is a complete farce.'"


That's the main conclusion of this affair. And if Bradford are in trouble, then it isn't a terribly big stretch to imagine us, Castleford, Salford and Wakefield being not far off similar.

One of the main tenets of the Franchising system was that it was supposed to ensure financial stability of clubs. Yet more evidence that the RFL is completely clueless when it comes to running the game.
