without paying the creditors? www.thetelegraphandargus.co.uk/sport/sportbulls/

I haven't got time to read into the details but on the face of it the answer is no.

They should start in a lower league, like any NEW club.

If they are the OLD club then the creditors should get paid.

Do I believe the RFL will follow this approach? No.

I have no axe to grind with Bradford, but i agree with Brett. If you don't agree, what was/is the point of a cap which is there to "protect" against mismanagement/overspending. If you believe in the cap, Bradford, if reformed as a new club have to go. Indeed, if they stay as the old club they should be punished severly, and demoted, even if we have a club less in SL next season.

Just pause and imagine if it was Wigan in this position, other clubs fans would be SCREAMING for us to be demoted. Clubs and the RFL know better...

No as Glasgow Rangers got sent down to the bottom league.All clubs should be treated fairly.

I don't think should will come into it, given the RFL's track record with clubs going into administration I fully expect that Bradford will be in SL next year (rightly or wrongly).

Think if you got your facts right it was the member clubs of the SPL who voted rangers into the third division, it wasnt the scottish FA and I think you will find most of the chairmen in superleague want us in! So there is no difference if the RFL leave the decision to the clubs

No, rules is rules, bye bye bully bully (really hated all that poo they did on matchdays)

At the end of the day, what is the alternative?

Halifax? They would be considerably weaker than the Bulls, with lower crowds, and it's YET another West Yorkshire club.

Leigh? Again, on the field they are pretty weak. Nowhere near ready for SL. Off the field they have been rumoured to have financial difficulties in recent years. Crowds will be low, although we may benefit in our home game.

I would keep the Bulls in during this licence period and then re-assess in few years.

That's because that league was filled with bitterness and hate for that particular team so gave them the worst treatment they could dish out. Bradford should be kept in the SL and should not be punished because of how badly they've been run financially.

I have given this a bit of thought and must say I DON’T KNOW. My heart says one thing, and my head says another. Justice and what’s good for the game, but is it? We all can push are chests out and say, “chuck them out, they deserve it” but do the fans? Is SL better off. It’s a big call, and a bit simplistic just to say “out”. What if it was us? No fat talk please. BE HONEST!

So where do you stand on the cap? Does it have any relevance?

Obviously a punishment should be involved, transfer embargo, fines, maybe even a point deduction to start the season. But kick them out of the league? No chance.

They have already been punished this season with a 6 points deduction and it has almost certainly cost them a playoff place.

So the cap has failed on several levels.... Failed to "help" club be run responsibly, and its certainly NO level playing field, as the Bulls had their playing field bought by the RFL to help bail them out...

So basically behave iresponsibly and stay in SL. How would you feel as a Wakey or Cas fan when your club has bumped along the bottom with poor finances and trying to stay within the rules and then see this...... Its a farce!!
