It really does make you wonder what sort of due diligence process the RFL actually have.  |

Not what they've said, sounds like it might be a mixture of full and part time, who knows though with the Bulls. Already short of money apparently so that's a good start. |

We’ll be making up the numbers for most of this year. Whether we make the effort to stay up isn’t yet clear. If we make it to 2018 to compete in the bottom division we’ll have done better than I expect.
Think we’ll be part time, I don’t believe the press release.

We've only been to Odsal once lately due to their inflated admission prices 'got in as concessions ' but they won't be getting any more brass off me. Our club are doing things the right way, mostly, and they expect the fans to pay for them to be full time. I don't think so. Still f/t, the same ground(paid for), even the same name so we're led to believe! It really is beyond a joke. You just couldn't write it. |

Interesting to see today that Sheffield have announced the signing of Dane Chisholm, whom the Bradford Fans felt was a real star for them the 2nd half of last year. Link here: sheffieldeagles.com/News/Article/48195 |

Thought Sheffield were nearly on the brink after last season as well.? (Griff?)
Looks like Fev and Batley have bought wisely with that extra money.
Not sure how Bradford and The Seagulls are managing to recruit with no brass though?
Dave are you coming over on Sunday? |

Sounds like the eagles have found some money again because I doubt Chiswell is part time.
I reckon it's back to being a decent team again after the mess of last season |

He would have been a prize scalp for us to get, and from what's been said he's not on mega-bucks at the Eagles.

We were only on the brink because the bloke who was going to support full time players realised how much it was costing him half way through the season. Businessmen, eh ? Can't use a calculator. 
Dunno what Chisholm's on yet but I think it's a smart piece of business.  |

Yeah quite ironic really that business men make loads of money then all their brains go out of the window when it comes to sports clubs and spend money the club doesn't have etc.
Yep looks like you have got a good 'un there.
Good luck for the season and credit to those Seagulls supporters who will turn up at Wakey for your home games-'true supporters'  |

Well Jordan Lilley has gone to Bradford with another 2 loan signing also being announced today. Salford also reportedly sending three players as the aid convey arrives.
I've got to be honest I'm sick to death of the uneven playing field given to that club. What's the point when we lose players to cut cloth accordingly and then Bradford get bolstered with quality players from SL clubs to "help them out"
I will be there Sunday as already committed to going but then I'm done. There is no point going through the season on a roller coaster of emotions when it's unfair from the start.
Scratch that, leads are sending 4. bit.ly/2k2YK0e |

Halifax can loan/dual reg the exact same amount of players as Bradford can. |

It's a total joke. Your post sums up just about everything I feel about the game in its present state. |

AFAIK You can loan/dual reg as many as you want (if you dual reg you technically get access to the entire squad), but only 5 can play on a match day. |

The question for me would be What does Jordan Lilley have to do to get in whinos first team?
The lad has paid his dues (Hunslet and Fev) in the championship, showed what he can do in SL last year yet BM still doesn't see him in his 1st 17
Talented player bfd have got there, ripped us to death when he was at hunslet

Agreed, thought this would be his year, seems to be shouldering an unfair bulk of the blame for last season's poor performance. |

So the situation as I understand it is that the Bulls are playing pretty much rent free at Odslum courtesy of the RFL? Any chance they can also pay our rent? Would then have maybe allowed for us to have kept Manning.
