Excellent letter. I look forward to their reply !!!!

Very good letter, it will be interesting to see what spin is put in their reply.

Just as a note, as it doesn't really matter, its Lee Gaskell not Dean and Adam Henry not John.

Only 2 wrong then!

The only suggestion I would make is on the copy you have made public, obscure the address. Other than that, exactly the right tactic.

If there are sound reasons, let's hear them, and give us a chance to understand. I just hope silence doesn't speak a thousand words.

I look forward to seeing a reply to this

An excellent letter and you did exactly the right thing copying in the press. To often things are done privately and the RFL can just ignore them.

We will see if the RFL will be as open and transparent as Maurice Watkins suggested in his report a year or so ago.

We will learn whether the RFL plan to be consistent in the application of the rules or whether the executive will play favourites.

Your letter is not just good for your club it is good for the game in general.

I wonder if you will get a reply. I wrote to them asking why the Bulls got docked half their Sky money while Wakefield didn't. I'm still waiting for a reply.

I'll answer that for you. It was because you agreed to it as part of your continued presence in SL. The first two seasons in SL we got no sky money so I wouldn't complain about getting half.

Oh and Wakefield hadn't had 1.2m in a secret loan from the RFL prior to their admin.

Hope that helps

Great idea, we all await the RFL's response with eager anticipation.

You'll need a sleeping bag, a kettle and some haribo's.

I remember at the time of our promotion the outrage voiced by Bradford fans at the lack of financial support offered to us.

I wonder if I can guess the RFL's response.
It'll be either:

a) I''m sorry, you misunderstood, we meant that if you go into admin you will have to reapply for your SL membership and this is far from guaranteed. You could even find yourselves in C1.

b) I'm sorry, the deciding factor is whether you owed outstanding funds to HMRC. If you did then we have no choice but to relegate you to C1.

or

c) Wait until it's clear whether OKBulls left residual debt to HMRC or not, and then choose a or b as appropriate.

Let's just get on with winning enough games to get into the top 12.

Sums up what we all feel and think Ian
Quite frankly after watching Trinity for 53 years I am close to jacking it in because the game has become a joke and no longer played out fully on the field. More column inches are attained by politics and perceived mismanagement at the RFL

I'm sure I read somewhere that the other SL clubs voted for that as a condition of the Bulls remaining in SL after their last insolvency event, as a protest against the RFL's underhanded secret bail-outs and the lies and spin that followed.
