The way things are going the ‘White Night’ will be able to pick the club up for next to nothing, what was the latest figure, £200k?

So the Administrator will have culled the bloated staffing dilemma, removed the unwanted players & wiped off the debt.

The new club keeps the cream of the crop, the supporters pay to get in for the rest of the season, as gratitude they’ve still got a club.

The RFL let’s them off with the loan under the Iconic status clause & reduces the rent ad infinitum.

All good reasons to pull the trigger and kill the club off.
A fresh start in CC1 is the answer.

Ah! So the RFL can not refuse to give Bradford, or any other SL club, the money as it already belongs to them. It's like when Granny gives the kids £50 each for Christmas but the parents give it to the kids a bit at a time as they'd only spend it all. I thought the BOD's of RL clubs were a little more mature and responsible than that, or maybe not.

So basically the RFL are official bankers (no, that's not rhyming slang, or maybe it is) for Superleague, are they?

I'd respond sensibly, but you're clearly only interested in having a rant.

Enjoy.

Not at all. I believe I've made my point albeit with a certain amount of facetiousness and cynisism. Unfortunately, the devious machinations of the RFL and SL tend to provoke this from me as with a great many others.

Did Fax not get a spot in SL during the last raffle?

We are constantly being told by the SL apologists that SL is owned and run by it's member clubs and that all the Sky money belongs to them.

Do you not think it's a bit rich a Halifax supporter lecturing other fans about Super League given the similarly appalling way in which your club was run not so long ago.

albeit by the man who is now running the whole league in the same appalling way

If only the £500K raised by supporters had been retained and invested into whatever guise the new Bradford takes club rather than bailing out the previous board and their failings.
