What if tommy lee had turned out to be the best half back the city had ever produced, or reece dean, or HTW? The game is littered with promising kids who never make the grade and you can't build a club on potential. Even if he does come through, litten is at least 2, more likely 3 or 4 years off being ready for SL week in, week out. Houghton will get injured at some point and we'll be fighting to stay out of the middle 8's if we rely on washbrook and hadley as replacements

As said it could work out, it could be a waste of cap, no body knows, happy with my views and stick my opinion.

The players are all free agents as their former employer is no longer in existence. it will be down to personal choice if they decide to sign for a new co and obviously dependant on terms then an offer from them may be more attractive than one from us but I guess it depends on his loyalty and ambition and whether he's already signed a contract for us. Maybe we need to move some cap space on before we can register him?

Isn't there dispensation on the cap when such things happen?

On a side note, Clare has now signed for Leigh.

Don't think there is, I think players on the quota don't count though.

Big mistake by Leigh, didn't they know David Hodgson was available?

O'Brien to Huddersfield. Shame, sounded like would have been a good fit for us.

there's a lot of sense in this. by the time a new bradford team gets round to recruiting they will have little to get from the player market. loaning them some of our younger players would give them more experience at a decent level rather than just in the academy or u23's

Has the Dual Reg agreement with Doncaster ended ?

Wouldnt be surprised if it has.
Hull pulled out of the agreement with York when the same coach was involved.

Disappointing IMO but hudds is next to bradford so he will likely have little travelling and hudds probably have a lot more room on their cap than we do so could probably offer him more.
