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

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

it seems from the story on sky that they have had to put the current company into administration, then be taken over by another owned by the new directors. this is obviously some tax dodge by the last owner it will be interesting to see if they are deducted points now relegation is back, if they do not get penalised how is the team who are relegated going to feel, Bradford have had the rules bent for them too many times now in my opinion I would be interested in your thoughts on there administration and how this sits in the rules of SL if you have any MRs B

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......

Quote: Bulls website "31st January 2014

BRADFORD BULLS officials have this afternoon announced that the club will not suffer a points deduction, as a result of its former operating company entering administration.

OK Bulls Ltd was placed into administration this morning but the club has since been purchased by Bradford Bulls 2014 Ltd.

And, on behalf of the new board of directors, chairman Mark Moore has confirmed that the Bulls are to remain a First Utility Super League side and will start the new season on zero points.'"

Bearing in mind the P&R this year, any points deduction might be deferred to 2015.

Relegation will mean the doors finally closing, I reckon and starting again at the very bottom.

If they are struggling year on year why dont the RFL step in & send them down & let a club like fev or halifax have a shot at SL, how many times can a club go through the mill like the bulls?

make or break season for the bulls under the new owners. need to claw back the lost supporters (over 3000 down last season) and be more competitive. sadly i feel they have left it too late for any quality recruitment and are going to struggle with or without a deduction. perhaps they need to go down a division and regroup, as they are in a financial mess trying to stay at this level. there is a danger they may become RLs equivalent of portsmouth

I know friendlies don't count for much but despite their problems they did put 30 on us pretty easily and without reply until a few minutes from the end. Now to me that suggests that , financial issues aside , if they're worried then we really ought not to be complacent or smug!

Quote: Anakin Skywalker "Yep. As I just said on the VT I can see the bottom of SL being a bloodbath come the end of 2014.
London, Wakey and Bradford are in the mire as it is relegation will probably put them far deeper in it for years.'"


Call me a cynic but, do you think The RFL would let Wakey go to the wall whilst there's a Hetherington involved with the club???

The RFL should be renamed The Hetheringtons!
