rl... or maybe not.rl Meltdown springs to mind.

how many shares did the new owners have? seems like they wanted all of the shares rather than the majority. you would have thought they would have got that bit sorted out before they announced they were taking over. could be that khan promised them the shares then retracted. perhaps he wants to take charge again, maybe he is over his 'ill health'. or have the new owners realised they have bitten off more than they could chew after looking at the club's finances, and are looking for a way out. all very odd.

someone needs to take control - they have (lots of) bills to pay

Well I won't be putting in the bucket this time. Really feel for the Bradford fans, but it needs a permanent solution this time.

Put in the bucket first time. Not doing it again until they've got someone decent in charge.

Praise The Lord for AP

Sounds like their new signings have been told they can look for other clubs. Dale Ferguson might be worth a look at if Tuson's gone long term.

I'd have taken ferguson first time round when he was leaving Hudds, would also look at Manofokuao (spelling?).

Not just the new signings. But the board that said that has walked now. If you wanted to sign a Bulls player, it isn't even clear who you would call right now.

good point, if you signed an under contract player, who would you pay a transfer fee to?

what a mess

rlGone into administration and sold, again.rl

I'd like to think there is now light at the end of the tunnel for them but I believe there could be a few more mile to go yet.

Can't see how they can avoid a points deduction again, would expect them to start season on -4 points, which in a season of relegation would leave them in a difficult position.

Although with the RFL having a vested interest anything could happen

The RFL have proved time and again that their rule book is not a book of rules but more of a guide line when the situation suites.

Interesting article, which didn't stay on the Bradford website for long......
