As far as I can see, this makes you the first club to break ranks and start picking over the carcass like a vulture. Coupled with the treatment of O'Carroll and Ellis by Adam Pearson, it would appear your club has become a very classy operator indeed!

As for Radford, that was years ago! Maybe he used the 'magic pen' to sign his FC contract..........

Hmm a bit like your club did with Tevita Vaikona when Hull Fc were in trouble .

May be we've grown up as a club and realise you have to be ruthless to get anywhere.

I certainly don't want to see your club go out of business and if us getting one of your better players helps keep you afloat until you can find a buyer surely thats better than you going out of business

sign who you want, come back when youve managed to keep them

May have been years ago but we forget fookall mate, what goes round comes round.
Time to move on, maybe all your big earners from the past years will come back to fund you but some how I can`t see it.

Lets be honest we haven't signed anyone yet and who know's if this is even true afterall our local rag is hardly known for getting things right

Don't see this "picking over the carcass" thing myself. You need money to keep the club afloat, would you rather we came in and paid for example 300k for Bateman and Kopzcak, or waited until you went under before getting them free.

As for O'Carroll and Ellis, they weren't pulling their weight and weren't in next years plans so we told them they could go now if they found clubs. Hardly the crime of the century.

To be fair guys, we took Radford, Vaikona and McNamara from you when things were dire at FC, and you and others will do the same to us. It goes round in circles. There will be no hard feelings if it keeps our club afloat, not towards you lot anyway. Our anger is directed at the people who were supposed to be running our club!

hull would do right in signing players but im sick of hearing about Tevita.

So a group of fellow RL fans are potentially losing their club and the best some of ours can do is go round theirs to gloat? Classy.

nowhere near good enough, and signed by mr agar, hence when gentle had a look, he realised there both turd and got rid pronto.... seems like mr pearson and gentle are starting the revolution abit earlier than expected...

moral higher ground is yours

No-ones gloating mate. Got the upmost sympathy for em but some of em don`t get whats happened to their club. Yeah, we`re gonna be in there to pick up some decent players but nothing to do with us what the Bulls owners have done to the club. As I posted earlier maybe some of their previous big earners could bail em out but I can`t see it can you?

Amazing, truly amazing

Craig Kopczak has been approached by three clubs apparently, doesn't want to leave the Bulls but obviously feels he may have no choice.

Hull are most likely looking at getting elima now. They were strongly linked with him for next year anyway.

The same club that come in picked over our already skinny carcass. Shocking state of affairs from another member of the so called "rugby league family"

Yes these things happen, and it is to be expected in the current circumstances. That doesn't make gloating in any way dignified or even okay.

Where did this bloody myth about the best thing about Rugby League being the fans come from? And when is it going to be dispelled!?

Think you need to look at your own clubs previous at signing from clubs that are in trouble before complaining about other clubs

TBH that's both sport and business. Bradford need to sort the wage bill, the Administrator needs to get the best outcome possible for the creditors and the club (and... uh... himself), Hull see an opportunity to acquire playing staff.

Not saying it's honourable or how "family members" ought to behave, but when we went into admin we lost players as a necessity and we've come out alright at the other side. I want to see the same for Bradford and if that means other clubs come in for players, so be it.

The blame doesn't lie with Hull or the administrators, but with the woeful mismanagement that's put Bradford in this truly awful position.

Plus as has been pointed out, I remember when we raided Widnes.

Such as who?

Even if we had I would never condone it on a personal level. It just doesn’t feel the right thing to do, morally anyway. That’s not to say we won't join this fire sale, I understand how it feels watching key players been sold off under value, not a good feeling as a fan.

It’s sad thing when some fans take pleasure from such a horrible set of circumstances.

Sad to see some fans coming on here with this attitude of "you did it to us so we'll do it to you".

It just makes you look bad. After all just because the administrators do it doesn't mean that fans have to condone it.

I have no problem with players getting the best deal they can but for fans to come on here saying it's ok for my club to strip your assets because your club once did it is just poor.

Sign who you want but they will only be there because they have no choice. You won't get far with people who don't really want to be there.

why do clubs sign overseas players then??? im sure orford swapped manly beach for bradford because it was nice....... all abut ££££££££££ and $$$$$$$$$$$$

I'm not condoning it but at the same time I can see the logic in making a move now.

You also can't say you didn't expect clubs to come knocking for your better players if you can offload a few players and give yourselfs a bit of time to find a buyer surely that is better than losing your club altogether..
