Did they not do exactly that to us, when they signed Vaikona?

In days of old we'd have had a few songs to sing to them on Friday

"Your going bust with the Rovers"

but im sure we''ll just welcome them to the KC and politley clap them .

Well now is the best time to go in for players, they are up the creek and stand a very strong chance of going into administration, if they sell now they have a chance to keep their club!
Are you suggesting Bradford have never gone in for players when a club was struggling ? Its sport you win some and you lose some, if teams cannot hold their own at this level move down and make way for those who can.

Anyways, this is all setting up for a Hetherington takeover

Didnt they get a wildcats player like we did with obst when they went into admin? Look at it this way if we pay for there players then it helps Bradford out.

I wouldn't wish that on anyone.

I'm not suggesting that at all. I'm not trying to make a comparison to what other clubs have done in the past.

I'm having a go at the immediate repsonse by a few on here, and the excitement at potentially raiding them for their best players. It's not what our sport should be about, and I thought we as a group of fans were better than that.

As for your last point - I agree. If teams can't hold their own, they should make way, but again, that's not really the point I'm making.

It is what our sport is about though......it is dog eat dog to get players to sign for a club, this is not amateur this is the big boy league, clubs get the best players a all costs, and on this occasion it is at the cost of a club who cannot afford to compete in the league.

They are our competition. If their loss can be our gain, then so be it. It's hard on their fans, but I didn't see a big queue of opposition supporters lining up to help us out when things got bad. Neither did I expect to.

if the bulls did fold, what would happen to the players if the majority of clubs are upto full cap!?

Didn't the Crusaders players get an exemption so that clubs could take them on without penalty? I presume similar if it gets to that stage for Bradford.

I thought they got quote/non fed exemption, not cap exemption.

Quite possibly, I was off that day.

Think 1 or 2 are perhaps underappreciating this situation. It's not as simple as them serving penance in the National Leagues, we're talking about the possibility of a club who helped form our game going out of existence. Yes, hopefully it won't come to that, and we should certainly try and benefit from it if we can, but I don't want that benefit to come at the expense of losing the Bradford club, only as part of their way to survival. Revelling in their misfortune/mismanagement shows a lack of class, and we are amongst those who really should know better.

They deserve all they get and their sponge fingered self styled ficklest fans(there was not enough room to get on their bandwagon).

Edited again - Chris

NO sympathy whatsoever as they could have got their house in order many times but speculated by paying too much salary. Rovers will end up the same , refusing to cut their cloth.

Offer a fee for Burgess , Whitehead and 2 points for us on Friday I say
