Several members of the Bradford Bulls coaching staff, including head coach Mick Potter, are thought to be among a raft of people made redundant today by the crisis-hit club.

Assistant coach Francis Cummins is thought to be the sole survivor among the coaching staff.

Terrible news for those involved - hugely hurt for them and their families.

Feel for the players too, but the changes to cash burn are far too little far too late.

Read on twitter a couple of messages from players abotu how unprofessional it is and how can they play without coaching - sadly it is not a decision abotu sport or professionalism - it is a sad sad state of affairs the Business is in I am afraid.

All 16 coaches (plus several other members of club staff) all redundant with immediate effect.

Sad state of affairs.

Wanting a coach to work for free? wonder if Noble would be swayed to help out

Really feel for the Bradford fans, hopefully something can be sorted out soon.

Is now the time to strike for any of their players we could take, maybe even for the end of this season?

That's such awful news. I hope that something can be sorted out and they get back on their feet as soon as possible.

Piece of cake... We've been doing it all year.
