The withholding of sky money wasn't a decision made by the RFL, it was the other SL clubs. I've been been a home and away supporter for as long as I can remember but I'll be picking my away games next year carefully. I had hoped the other clubs might reconsider how our share of tv money is used but I haven't seen anything to suggest they'll do anything but divvy it up between themselves again. I do however appreciate the support we received from a small number of clubs so I hope to still see a few games on the road next year.

If I go to an away Superleague tie I'll make sure I buy my tickets through the bulls so they get a percentage.

When attending the game I intend to spend not one penny at the away ground. No programmes, pies, drinks nothing .


It won't prove anything but it'll make me feel better

So how many players last time u went tits up did you HAVE to sell. If you had sold your prize assets like club have done recently you wouldnt have needed bailing out and now would have been on full sky money. So dont cry the victim

You being a recent poster on this site felt the absolute need to join, just to slate us off? Particularly when we have just heard that staff are being made redundant, with two of our prizes assets already sold (Bateman and Whitehead) as you like to describe our playing staff. Not to forget the 16 staff who were redundant when in administration, and unless you have faced anything like this in your life (you must have, otherwise where would your bitterness come from) you cannot possibly comment, or expect any respect for your views!

PS Do you mean London?If so hardly a like for like scenario is it?

other than you being a tight yorkshireman

Careful is the word you're looking for

I've given up replying to morons like this. Every week some Pratt writes a similar letter in the rl papers.

Facts won't work these people are that small minded (evident in their I'll informed groundless ranting) there isn't enough space in their heads to accept it.

Once things settle down at the Bulls and were not in the press anymore they'll go back to gypsies and the welsh

Is anyone else struggling to see how the 80's concert lost 100 000 pounds?

You can show anything with figures if you're creative enough. The government has been doing it for years.

Just to establish who are the morons Maccbull, Do you mean the original poster I replied to, or in fact me!
If it's him then I agree....if it's me, I'll cry myself to sleep (well maybe not)

copy of the original quote I replied to!

If I were Sonny Whakarau, as in the real NZ international whose name has been taken and abused, I think I'd be contemplating legal action.

To clarify I meant the original poster ha ha

I'm not!
I questioned the announced "targeted" ticket sales and the 48% achievement of these, together with Mr Whitcut and Mr Moore's reliance on Belinda and Rick for 2014 onwards........I was shouted down!
Altergever Now....can we hear you BRADFOOOOOOOOOORD......
Neva gonna give you up..............................

People get ultra sanctimonious about a something and nothing post re: redundancies yet overt, purposeful trolling passes un-mentioned.

All those who 'don't post anymore' be careful what you wish for.

Probably because most people have hidden said troll's posts. I'd be surprised if any semi-regular could see Gutterfax's posts for example.

Ah Gutterfax, the way he makes stuff up and claims it as fact, it's like he's the boards own version of The Daily Mail but without the overt racism

Interesting – none of the “big” earners prepared to forgo salary cuts but quite willing to sack and change terms and conditions for the ones left behind.
Saving pennies hoping that they will become pounds – never has worked in the past and never will in the future.
Happy Christmas and a Prosperous New Year – for some, the rest can go.... on benefits

Meanwhile the Cougars have plans for a £5m stadium re-development....

Well, yeah we had [i:4zd77ordplans[/i but you have to wonder how they're going to accomplish it. Is the ground still owned by the Co-op btw, or am I way out of date?

Yes when the Co-op had to sell up to a hedge fund the Wall Street types asked if they could set them up with some hot Cougars - unfortunately this was mistranslated

When an investor or sponsor looks at the books though they need to be confident it's a) not a load of and b) not a bottomless money pit.

Depends upon which section they get the books from - Fiction or Non Fiction

We had a mania for stadium plans before they did.

Bring back Mike O'Neill, he could do the Steve Long gig as well.
"Ladies & Gentlemen, boys & girls, what time is it? It's stadium mania time. Let's hear the war cry."

Yes, along with - "clear the pitch boys and girls, the members of a hedge fund will soon be feeding", oh, it breaks your heart..
