Not if they go into administration.

No indication there as to why this has happened, or that they'd sell the club if need be. Very odd situation.

All seems a bit dodgy to me!

Same thing that we had to deal with? Players taxes?

Bradford signing Harris has got to go down as 1 of the worst decisions by any sport club in recent memory. All of their problems seem to have stemmed since it kicked off over the legality of his signing.

Reading on their forum it sounds like mismanagement on a grand scale, and the bank may have had enough.

All men are created equal, some work harder in preseason. -[i:1c45x4hd]Emmitt Smith[/i:1c45x4hd]:



hope this means we can wipe the floor with them a bit this week, then invite their best players to stay.

also, can we wap out the donation buckets for them?

8,000 other fans? They got 11k against Salford last week. When did they ever get 19k?!

We should be going for their youngsters NOW. If we wait until administration, we'll have to compete with everyone else.

I find some of the comments on this thread by fellow Hull fans quite crass really.

The first thing some of you thought about was raiding their best talent, and taking advantage of the dire situation over there at Bradford. Rugby League community?

I remember a few years ago (maybe 10 years ago now) when Wakefield were in trouble, and even though we weren’t playing them that day, a lot of FC fans went to Belle Vue to offer their support (and brought with them some much needed revenue). How times have changed and some attitudes along with it.

As for people justifying it by bringing up the Radford move – give over.

The whole thing is corrupt, the RFL awarded Bull a B grade! then bought the stadium to bail them out, then they signed a player for a 5 yr deal a week ago!! and now they are out with the begging bowls, time for a stint NL1 me thinks...

Not entirely sure what these points have to do with my post that you quoted? My post was aimed towards attitudes of those that wanted to get their pound of flesh and take advantage of their situation - not whether they should lose their license or not.

Let's have their best players then. Feel sorry for their fans, not a good situation at all, but have to think about our own progress.
