Not quite what I said, but I did advise that a new co had been established, quoting info that is in the public domain. I'd be surprised if the RFL allowed things to go that route, or at least allow the same people to run the club following the long list of CCJ's that have arisen.

Since I posted that information, not one but two Winding Up Petitions have been submitted suggesting to me that those in charge new what was coming.......

Mr G has just said on Twitter that the new company was formed as a vehicle from which to operate the new college; if that doesn't come off, they may use it for the stadium management company.

Another one to stop moaning about.

off to get my st's tomorrow! personally think we will be fine and the crowds we are getting are ace!! well done imho to all the team!

"The Bradford T&A are reporting that it is understood the third party funding will come in the form of a bank loan."
The bulls appear to be having to get a bank loan to pay players wages; this goes to show how fragile SL clubs are...it's not just us.
I'm glad this has come to the attention of the RL media as when it is us it appears to be publicised all too quickly.
I wonder how many other clubs struggle just as much, and how much real scrutiny is put into (the real) club finances around SL.
A wealthy backer does not a competent and efficient business make - pillars of sand etc etc.

Half of superleague are teetering on the brink. The game isn't in a great place at the minute in this country hence the rfl's desperation to change everything yet again. Sadly the convoluted plan they have come up with will probably turn as many fans and sponsors away from the sport as it attracts.

Totally agree and what is needed in difficult times is strong management and stability and we have neither within the sport as a whole.
