I am of the same opinion as many of you. I dont want to see the Bradford club disappear, but I think its very much Karma what is happening for a number of reasons.

1. When Nigel Wood and co left Fax with a load of debt that they struggled for years to get rid of and which eventually nearly killed the club off. a number of Bulls fans poked fun at us Fax fans and made comments like you are a disgrace to SL when we was forced to field a weak squad in the year we was relegated. They thought it hilarious to see us struggle and getting hammered in each game even though the board made the decision to cut its cloth as best it could. Sadly the debt Big Nige and co built up proved too much a few years later and the club had to get the buckets out. We appreciate the help from fans from other clubs including Keighley. But we didnt get that much help from other clubs and the RFL. Did the RFL look to help us with our lease? Where was the help for Keighley, Doncaster, Whitehaven. Leigh etc?

2. The words of Chris Caisley poking fun at Keighley and Fev and re inventing history is something I also remember well. How he lied and twisted things to make sure Bradford got the best of things over others. He was chairman at Bradford and I dont remember too many Bradford fans saying he was wrong to say what he did.

3. Halifax like Keighley, Batley and Dewsbury was a prime target for free tickets and raiding our clubs to fill the Bulls Academy team. The hard work the Championship teams did was systematically undermined by the Bulls. They knew our areas was Rugby areas and they couldnt be bothered to do that much work in Bradford who in the main dont give a toss about Rugby.

4. The rubbish from people saying SL needs Bradford. No they need a strong Bradford that isnt badly managed and begging to survive. For me Bradford should lose their SL status after this year even if no team replaces them. They should have to rebuild just like Fax, Keighley etc have had to do

5. The whole farce of licences and Nigel Wood twisting things to suit his agenda really annoys me. He ran up debts and upset many people at Halifax and he is not learned any lessons. His arrogance and ego has seen him and the RFL split the game. It doesnt matter what you do on the field its if your face fits etc. The game is in a mess below the surface but he doesnt care about anything but himself and SL. To see 3 SL clubs in 18 months in such a mess makes me laugh at what a fraud it all is.

Bradford have run up massive debts and paid for players they couldn't afford.

Now the whole of rugby league seems to be bailing them out and paying it off for them . If anyone from the RFL reads this board, STAND UP AND BE COUNTED as you give them a B Raiting. This is a complete and utter joke.

I have a small office in Bradford, it appears the Bulls Supporters Club are calling all businesses in BD to see if they can assist with the 'keep the bailiffs away for a few more weeks' fund.

I took great delight in declining his request for a donation. I wonder if they are going to make the £500k by tomorrow? Think they have 300k according to super league websites, then I would imagine a packed Odsal at the weekend could bring home sufficient......for now.

I see our old mate Chris Caisley is hovering in the background.

Can you imagine?

Clocks ticking B***s but dont worry Mr Caisley will come and offer his help

caisleys a a end of, always has been always will be.

It has been said that he issued a winding up petition against the club.

25k raised at last nights auction,expected more,oh deary me

Is that all ?????

Pitiful.

Was reading that some of the auction lots had reserves of £10k and needless to say they didn't reach them.

They need all the money they can get, so why do that? It seems like complete lunacy.

Mind you nearly 21k turned up to watch them beat Leeds tonight, that is a hell of a crowd.

I dont want them to go to the wall. I value all the leagues clubs BUT to see that get their cumuppence after the way they conspired to block us out of the first SL season does give me a quiet sense of ironic satisfaction.

I do want them to go bust if they deserve to. How can a SL club getting the SKY money go bust if they are sticking to the salary cap? Doesn't say much for the rigour of policing of Super League Clubs' financial controls by those currently in charge at the RFL. No Club should be allowed to finalise a contract with a player unless the RFL signs it off on the basis that the Club has the means to honour the contract. Don't forget, of the £1 million the Bulls owe, I'd bet a big chunk of it is owed to the taxman - i.e. you and me.

If the Bulls go bust, the Bulls will still continue as a club - it's just that they should be relegated to Championship 1 - just like Crusaders last year. The current Bulls players would become free agents with the chance to move to other clubs on a 'free transfer.'

Apparently they're 20 grand short of their first half million.

The deadline has all of a sudden moved until after the Bank Holiday weekend.

It makes you if they're being played like a fiddle.

Without doubt in my view fans are being played, anyone know to whom the pledges are being paid to just curious plus I see Caisley demanding Hood should step down, this has a long way to go yet I think.

If as mentioned the wage bill is so high something has to give as apart from last night their home support over last few years have dropped off a bit.
