Although we will never know, what would have happened if the Bulls situation had occured at one of the smaller, less fashionable, clubs ?
This is my only real gripe with the pantomime that has gone on all season.
The outcome was certainly predictable and tbf, the championship clubs would have struggled to transform themselves in the timescale that presented itself.
It just goes to show that size really does matter !

Absolutely not. The only people who are feigning surprise are the Bulls fans. And that is just to keep up appearances.

The less said the better

It sends the message that they have no chance. Forget it. Which is sad. 1 up 1 down really must return to make this sport fair again

The Bulls were the club to embrace the Super League, they remain in terms of club size one of the largest clubs in the league in a city much larger than the small town of Featherstone and carry one of the largest fan bases in club rugby of either code in this country, we would have made the play-offs but for the points deduction, (not the players fault we were in this mess). Let me tell you the Bradford fans have stuck by our team when we have had uncertainty all this year. Another thing Wakefield have been in admin and are still in league, to me it seems like jealously from some fans about the Bulls successes they wanted us to suffer. I have had a terrible year whereby I have two redundancies and have stuck by my team throughout this process, luckily I managed to find a another job on a larger salary and my team are safe, but the league is much stronger with the Bulls, just speak with the bosses of Leeds, Warrington, Wigan and St Helens.

Woolworths were bigger than my local corner shop but it still went belly up.
You budgeted to lose £100k a month or roughly your playing salary every month how can you justify even being in SL let alone qualifying for the top eight?
Sorry but it's a joke, and highlights the deficiencies in SL and the RFL.
Sorry about the job thing though, glad you got sorted.

No we applied for the current license and it was awarded what did you say on last years application about your finances the whole truth and nothing but the truth?

And Little Wakey went into administration and stayed in the league, go away little boy

We applied, was accepted based on an honest application.
And you…………………

The fans have been amazing this year with what has gone on, end of the day as the St Helens Chairman said Bradford are too important to Super League not to be in it.

So no answers then? just "look at us where the bulls" propaganda bull?

You couldn't make this up, it's the kind of argument a 6 year old girl would come up with, bloody cringeworthy.

No the problem is the preferential treatment you're shower have got in all this.

Are you Omar Khan?

Wakefield was put in admin after the RFL had refused us a £300K advance on our TV money. Wakefield had cut to cloth in a big way in the 2 years leading up to admin, everything was done to avoid admin. We had no offers to buy our ground lease. You see the difference in treatment there? In contrast your club decided to spend money that you didn’t have. In fact that’s what you’ve been doing for years. I’m sure if we could over spend by £100K a month we would a nice full trophy cabinet and record crowds that would make us too big to fail!

Totally agree. Maybe if the RFL hadn't propped them up, the problem would have been smaller and resolved sooner. Still waiting to see how the RFL explain the Bulls financial difficulties not being flagged up in the licence process, but won't hold my breath.
