THE BULLS AND THE RFL, TOGETHER YOU ARE STRONGER

You totally miss the point. If nature had taken its course. ie without the unprecidented intervention of the RFL, your club would have already ceased to exist in SL
The other issues surround franchising, where your club was awarded a license ahead of other applicants and a probable future reduction of numbers in SL, when it is extremely likely
that your club will stay in the top flight when others will be less fortunate.
Also, do you really think that the same level of support and backing would have been given to clubs like ourselves or Cas if they found themselves in your position and please think carefully and answer this question truthfully.
FWIW, most fans have sympathy for your plight, especially for the loyal fans and we would not wish this situation on any other club, but there sould be a level playing field within any sport and unfortunately in RL this clearly does not exist

I would hope you would receive the same support if you went in to administration mid season, I didn't think we would receive any support and I was wrong on that so who knows how much help, if any you would receive.

When this situation first raised it's ugly head a number of Wakey fans said go bust, have a clear out of players and start a fresh. Maybe that suited your club when your situation arose, but we have a structure of a very good rugby league side and it appears the priority has been to keep hold of our young talent.

I agree there should be a level playing field, but this will never happen when the top league is structured around franchises.

One that you cannot afford and someone else is paying for

I'm not sure anyone has anything but sympathy for the actual fans, who are blameless in all this.
The comparisons to Wakefield's situation are unhelpful, and I don't have a problem with the way we were treated by the RFL at the time. I think they went as far as they could or should have to assist.
My only concern is in the style and level of involvement of the RFL/SLE in this case.
From 'secret' loans, to grade 'B' licence, to lease buys, to financial support of the players, but not the backroom or coaching staff.
Prior to going into admin, the club seemed to be run as if nothing was wrong. Where were the cost-cutting measures to try and make the business viable? Other clubs, e.g. Cas, have had to sell players and assets to keep the business afloat.
If any of the creditors (particularly HMRC) don't get paid in full, the RFL could be seen as complicit in avoiding these debts.
Added to that the number of dangerous precedents that have been set for other clubs, this could get extremely embarrassing for the sport.

No it's you who's waffling and frankly making it up as you go along - you said "When this situation first raised it's ugly head a number of Wakey fans said go bust, have a clear out of players and start a fresh. Maybe that suited your club when your situation arose, but we have a structure of a very good rugby league side and it appears the priority has been to keep hold of our young talent" are you bust or not?

At what point does a club or any business in administration/bust have the option to decide what the priorities are - ie keeping young players - jeez how arrogant can a set of fans get. Give your head a shake, the only priority for a business in Administration is paying creditors - unless someone is making it very very agreeable for the administrator to keep said youngsters.

Something is very wrong with this whole situation and most right minded people know it.

That's it, can you imagine the uproar from fans if the RFL did kick a team out of SL for whatever reason in the future, the stink would be unbelievable.

Like you've said, dangerous precedents have been set and they've backed themselves into a corner with this one big time.

Can you not read? I have just said that obviously we are in admin and it is the administrators decision.

I said it appears that the administrator is trying to maximise return for the club and as so retaining the players as a priority to sell the club as an on going concern. As I have also said I believe one of the conditions of offers put forward is that no players are sold. Why do you think he has kept the players?

Where have I said the club/business are deciding to keep hold of the players?

At the end of the day this alll stinks of Bull , I'm waiting for the next club to go bust, and they better get the help the Bulls are getting... RFL/SL are fools for taking this root, it will open a can of worms in the future for sure..
