I've a soft spot for the Bulls, and I think even those who haven't don't want to see this happen to the club. It makes the game look amatuerish and has massive implications to the league in the future. Firstly, as the club has gone into administration, are they going to get a license next time they're given out? Will they be demoted at the end of the season (doubt it. The RFL would have to have a contingency plan in place for that to happen, and we all know they've none of them). Surely this proves that Bradford's application for a license was falsified in the first place. I hope they remain as a club, and continue to play at Odsall, but they shouldn't be allowed to claim a place in SL next year.

Or even to 5. At present, the 6th place club has a negative points difference and only won a fraction over half their games. I think it more shows how poor the competition is outside the top 4 or 5.

I have always felt that having more teams making the play offs that not is a bad idea. Don't think there is any other sport that it happens in. Finishing 8th should not be viewed as a success.

City may well buy the Bulls and play at Odsal themselves. I believe they no longer own valley Parade and pay a huge rent just to play there.

Would be a logistical nightmare to incorporate segregation? Where would they section off the away fans with seperate facilities etc?
