| It's easy to criticise if you're not there, either turn up and be part of the club or jog on

| All you ever do is criticise, complain, belittle or moan. I've had enough. ME, either move the debate forward or don't bother posting. I've had enough. And I'm sure I speak on behalf of many on here. ....awaits silly immature response...

I am in no way shape or form happy to see any RL club in strife......I am most assuredly in a glass house when it comes to such matters.
I am sure Bradford Bulls will exist long after my London Broncos are long gone.....after all, we can't have the RFL with a tenant that can't afford the rent now, can we

| Maybe we should get Omar and Whitcut in the stocks, £1 for a wet sponge £10 for a brick. Our money troubles will be over in no time!

| A very interesting meeting. I walked away thankful that the news was at least not as bad as I had feared walking in.
If there is ay good news, it is that finally we are going to be attempting to live within our means. There isn't anybody who is going to pump large sums to fund us. However, the result, certainly for the next year for starters, is going to be some real austerity. Fans are going to have to come to terms with chicken and egg, it's no use whingeing that X is leaving, or Y is not being signed, unless you have the bank balance to send your own cheque to solve that particular problem.
The continued absence of half the Sky money is going to be a crippling factor, and if so-called fans all stay away in droves then the knife will have to cut ever nearer the bone.

And who the hell are you to tell me what to do? So you have had enough have you?
Well you know what to do then don't you? There is a option to mark me as a "foe" in your control panel. Do this and you won't see any posts I make.

TBH, if you don't think people should have an opinion then an internet message board is probably not your place.
There is no need for me to stop posting as I am staying within the AUP of this board. You, however.......

| Yesterday's T&A - Cummins looking to strengthen squad, few things in pipeline...........today's T&A - we might lose some players
FFS - are people talking to each other ?
This club is being run like Billy Smarts Circus....I admire the honesty, but surely this financial analysis should have gone on before we started signing players??
I for one can see one of the new recruits leaving before they have eve played for us. What a sham
Rant over

| So a shortfall of 400k to make up this season according to T and A report. Oh and we have a shortfall of 500k from Sky money. Funny that.
Yet still we will have some on here who will say that the loss of sky money made no difference.

Why don't you behave like a fan? Why don't you show at least a tiny bit of concern for the future of the club you claim to support? Instead it is all I told you so's. It's really not the time is it?
So now you have what you want, and are obviously delighted that the club has been run into the ground as predicted by you, what do you want next? You won't be happy with the three we have in charge at the moment I am sure, so who would you like? What would make you, as a "fan" for once, actually get behind the club?

| The Aus/NZ players are usually allowed holiday leave for 2weeks (or so) over Xmas. But this is a bit early for Xmas.

| Fwiw this is exactly what we went through 3 months ago. Need to clear the decks and start again. Not easy but you need every single person pulling in the same direction. And cut every single cost you can. Then you back the badge not the players in them. They will come and go, the club and fans will always be there.
I wish you all the best.

| If the RFL are trying to help,I can't believe they cannot grow a pair and stand up and say the Bulls are getting full Sky money.They should tell the greedy clubs who wanted an extra 50k to take a running job.Never mind it's SLE who voted for it,the RFL (supposedly) run the game,end of.

| According to the Directors last night the RFL have been helping the club. As far as getting the sky money back is concerned that's out of RFL hands.
I can see us "doing a Wakey" over the next few months while we get a grip of finances. However I do have more confidence in the current Directors who were brutally honest last night.

In theory this season's shortfall should have nothing to do with the reduced Sky money, as the budget should have been set to take that into account. That is a red herring I'm afraid.
What it does show is that the supposed £900k cash injection by OK never happened and was a figment of somebody's imagination, seeing as it was heralded as being enough to see you through to the end of the 2014 season. Clearly the cash never materialised and has left this big hole in the budget.
