It’s called paranoia, and hardly surprising after the year you’ve had ![Laughing icon_lol.gif](images/smilies//icon_lol.gif) .

| I cant quite understand why this has been done, even if it ends up being some kind of stop gap until the end of the season.
Why has there been so much determined effort to save Bradford ?
Yes they are a "big" club who prospered in the early days of SL and yes, they have a 10000 strong fanbase but, is this deal about protecting a club, an iconic ground, completing a seasons fixtures (without the embarrassment of wiping out a teams results, or is this to protect the RFL's investment in a lease for a hole in the ground.
This is mind-blowing and my head is hurting just trying to reconcile what has been agreed.

Soon we will be dancing the Fandango
FROM 2004,TO DO WHAT THIS CLUB'S DONE,IF THATS NOT GREATNESS THEN I DONT KNOW WHAT IS.

| Quote: TrinitarianWF2 "For me the worse part is the lack of any movements of this sort to save other ailing (smaller clubs) they've let die by the wayside. Where was this help for Blackpool?
It shouldn't matter if your Blackpool, Bramley or Bradford, in essence I support helping them all (within limits) but there has to be a greater sense of parity to the help we give- no matter who you are. Rather than this too big to fail crap.
All I'm saying is that SHOULD Salford go belly up we better be prepared to buy a club with a lease they can't afford to pay.'"
All these clubs and a few more that are not around ,or not now around at top level,all chipped in to help resurrect this cinderella club that is most famous for going bust.Just look at the player Trinity let them have in 1964 Ian Brooke for one springs to mind.I just dont know how the keep getting away with it

| An utter disgrace.
No club is bigger than the game,
How can any other club be now left to fend for themselves if they are in difficulty?
Are Salford the next club to be purchased ?
Complete shambles.

| Hold on a second, if the RFL have promised us a Super League license for the next 10000 years in exchange for this then I'd take it!
In all seriousness, this is bizarre.

| Absolute disgrace and shows what a corrupt set up the RFL and SL are. Is it now an open offer to clubs to spend well above and beyond their means in search of silverware cos depending who you are they will bail you out.
Wouldn't happen to the likes of Wakefield, Cas, Huddersfield, Salford or Widnes to name a few.
Sick to back teeth of the game now, bent from top to bottom!!

Even as a Leeds fan having had our fair share of success over recent years I have to say my love for the game is certainly being tested.
The RFL and SL is an utter shambles ![Sad icon_sad.gif](images/smilies//icon_sad.gif)

Perhaps for Trinity and Cas a bit of grace regarding the realisation of their respective stadiums's

| It makes you wonder how much the loss of Bradford would have cost the RFL with all they have done to save them. I'm probably not alone in thinking that that if Bradford Bulls had have gone under, the RFL wouldn't have been far behind.

It is "Fifita" not "Fafita"
If you don't know the difference between "there", "their" and "they're" I might get annoyed.
Sharing First World problems so you can get it right first time.

| Surprising to see some Bull fans on their forum are now turning from elation to despair. Some are asking how are they any better off than before (because they fear they won't be in Super League next year)? For goodness sake they may just be saved from liquidation and will have a club to follow.
Sometimes there is no pleasing some people
For the genuine and respectful fans, for which there are many I am happy for them.

| Buy the Bulls my o my. So Wakefield then why not help us when we were in the mire? they would have let us fall off the radar without a second thought. Sorry for Bradford supporters but they should have let things take their course. Who will they buy next? will they end up owning all the clubs? what a bloody mess.
