I never gave them a penny, sad for the fans, sad for the players/staff out of a job but I will never give free money to prop up/bail out somebodies business venture.
The RFL own the ground/land, is that correct? they should sell it up for housing or whatever, the whole thing is a noose around their necks and they and the local council should have seen sense years back when the Bradford City chairman wanted them to ground share. www.thetelegraphandargus.co.uk/n ... hare_call/

Incorrect RFL have the lease and council own the ground

Anyone heard anything about this one?

| Just going to ask the same myself. On the Bradford Board they think its a done deal played a lot of rugby for Bradford last three seasons and ever present last year. Leeds have been after him a time or two but just what we need to finish the jig saw

Yes.
He's not a million miles from a Houghton like player and I honestly can't think of a better place for him.
Good luck to the kid. He is a fan favourite here.

I've heard he turned leeds down and signed for us as he wanted to go to a big club

| If we have signed him maybe we'll loan him back for the season?

Sounds like the Houghton back up we've been seeking for a while; we have hopefully a successor in Litten but not ready yet. Would be good business for us as Leeds have had a couple of attempts at getting him. Guess he knows Noggers quite well as think they're similar age. Hope it's true but not holding my breath.

| I'd be slightly reluctant. Litten looks the real deal, but I guess a 1 year deal would be good

I agree, seems a pointless signing, unlikely to get a game, Houghton has plenty of years left and we have Litten coming through, have to trust Radders and co though.
Could be hughly beneficial to both clubs to loan a few players to them.

it wouldn't be so pointless if houghton gets a lengthy injury (and Litten could not be expected to carry the team's attack week in week out just yet), could end up being a very astute signing

With the Radford connection, and also with Pryce being back at Bradford now, I wouldn't be surprised if that's why O'Brien is supposedly heading our way, and I'd also imagine that loans between the two could happen.
Could work for the likes of Downs, Fash, Osborne, Matongo and Turgut to get some game time.

If that happens, but looking at Houghtons injury record that's unlikely, if he did get injured short term we could cope, long term, then you could make a signing on loan etc.
I just feel that he will spend most of the season if not all of it in the reserves or out on loan and taking up salary cap.
You could also same the same about Sneyd, we have not like for like back up for him.
