They'll lose points but given where they are on the table it hardly matters!

Points are deducted in the season that a club enters admin. ?
Changing the subject slightly, thet are playing with an outstanding amount of pride and passion at the moment.
Although the players are in the shop window, its an absolute credit to the coaching staff and players that they can perform at this level with such a cloud hanging over them.

No one deserves to stay in super League if they cannot run their affairs correctly - Just look at RANGERS for tham one - Kick them Out, thay are living beyond their means

When were Rangers in Super League? Have I missed something and have Stanley Rangers been bumped up to SL level?

A lot of people who may have advocated sympathy for the Bulls are likely to have hardened their stance following their 'only for as long as it was convenient' transformation into SL's most worthy charity case - players, fans, commentators and even the governing body joined in the emotional guilt trip to 'save' the Bulls, contributing to a level of hyperbole that was positively sick-making and could even be considered irresponsible.

Going into admin a short time later was a kick in the knackers for all those people and a massive two's up to the RL community.

If the RFL weren't complicit in the cover-up job that's been ongoing since the SL applications were scrutinised, I'd expect them to impose a severe penalty on the club; as it is, they'll smooth the way for a return to business as usual next season, and keep their fingers crossed that it doesn't happen again.

I agree with this.
