The administrator has not sold ONE player WHY this is a complete farce if the RFL pay the Aug wage bill it is a disgrace RL stinks to the core

The RFL have already said that they'll ensure all players get paid to the end of the season.

It must be nice to be in the club.

Absolutely agree. They shud have sold players to cut costs, but seem happy to run with the same squad and let others pick up the tab.

If they make the play offs with all these handouts, they shud be made to forfeit their place.

The non existent deadline is a joke as well. At last count I think it has been extended 5 times.

The RFL are just digging themselves into a massive hole. The longer it goes on the more pathetic they become.

Does anyone know what happened to the money from the big sale of the merchandise they had ?????

Agree. IMO they are also setting a precedent which other clubs in similar difficulties could call on in their hour of need.

They should be selling the only asset they have - the players.

Bateman 200K
whitehouse 200K

That would pay the wages.

RFL are a joke.

I suspect the RFL would do anything to get through the regular season rounds and hope the Bulls don't make the play-offs. The mess caused by letting them go bust would be the worst case scenario.

The villain isn't the RFL anyway, it's the administrator. What have the RFL done exactly? They have rejected an offer they didn't like and advanced some money that was due anyway. It is the administrator is doing nothing to reduce the expenses, who wants the RFL to fund a top eight squad. It is the administrator who has extended the deadline, nothing to do with the RFL.

I'm no fan of the RFL as a body, because they do seem to apply standards differently, but I can't think much they have done wrong since the Bulls went bust.

If the administrator extends the deadline they should fund it not the RFL

Double standards without a doubt. If bradford finish in the top 8, just imagine how the sky team will make the most of it. For me the longer it goes on the less interest i have, it may be a ploy hopeing for that result.
The RFL do and should face the music , or do they already know the outcome.

It's the RFL's fault for agreeing to pay the wages for the remainder of the season, that's why we are seeing a never ending deadline. It's no skin off Guilfoyles beak, he's laughing all the way to the RBS.

Thing that I don't understand is that all the rfl need the bulls to do is fulfil their fixtures, the bulls don't need their current squad to do that. We proved that u can get by with a mediocre squad and still complete the season.

The rfl could have agreed to fund a certain figure per month for the rest of the season and that would have forced the administrators hand to cut some of the squad accordingly. The fact they haven't done so, and have therefore contrived to waste yet more of the games money that they didn't have to, is IMO another error on their part in this fiasco

Is it this years money or future money ? If the Bulls are liquidated and its future money than the RFL can say goodbye to it.

What irks me is that the Bulls do not appear to have made any attemps to repay any of their creditors but continue with the same team with someone else picking up the bills. It sends out the message that you can spend money you haven't got and it it all goes belly up mid season, don't worry the RFL will fund you to the end of the season and who knows, you may make the play off's, find a buyer and all is well again - of couse apart from the poor creditors you don't pay and who may be forced under themselves due to non payment.

Not being hypocrital we went under owing creditors money but we did pay some bills, notablly part of the tax liability by selling Ryan Atkins and Danny Brough and the Administrator sold some of our players. I know that if Newmarket had not of been called in we would have received some monies that would have enabled creditors to be paid although it was probably only delaying the enivatable. But for all our faults at the time the Club was trying to pay bills but it was trying to bail out a sinking ship with a collander. The Bull do not appear to be attempting to pay any bills as far as the public can see

We deserved all we got and if we had ended up in the Championship it was no more than we desrved for the mal-administration of the club and the RFL needs to send out a message that spending money you have not got will not be tollerated - and that includes us if we do it again but AG seems to know what is his doing.

No matter how it's sliced up, Super League NEEDS a Bradford Bulls !! Hmmmm
As we are now witnessing the RFL will honour this statement until the bitter end.
Pisspotical to say the least !

does seem like rfl are trying to drag them through this season they've not given a new date this time just excuses about looking into the new offers. surely they should have had enough time to decide the outcome of the submitted offers.
