I would have rather that Friday at Wigan was our last stand than for it all to end like this. For Gods sake put us out of our misery and give us the bullet. At least we can start again with honour and dignity. |

Guilfoyle wont speak to any prospective buyers, as that will scupper his paymaster Caisleys plans to take charge of the club he has brought to its knees

I live in Hull and support FC and I sympathise with you all 100%. The company I worked for for 20 years went into admin 2 years ago and all the administrators were interested was getting their bill paid. We COULD and WOULD have survived with a little help. For what it's worth I think Super League will be far better off if you somehow find a backer and survive as you are.
GOOD LUCK TO YOU ALL AND HOPE TO SEE YOU WHEN WE COME TO ODSAL LATER IN THE SEASON

my friends uncle was let go yesterday by the bulls.but no one from the board has actully told him yet and he has had no letter. it was left to another former member of staff to tell him.cant believe no one has had the desency to talk to him properly.the people in charge at the bulls need to have a long hard look at themselfs for treating people like this.the best thing that could happen now is to start again with a fan run club the bulls have a good support and could make it work.

I know it's no use now but many Wakey fans (speaking from experience) were suggesting along those lines when you were pledging all your cash, you could have had £500,000 in a pot now ready to invest in the new club! 
Has anyone actually said what's happened to that £500,000? |

Sorry but as a Wakey fan this stinks:
"The Rugby Football League has promised to advance him the £200,000 needed for the players' wages..."They have said they will let us have the money if it is directed towards wages," he told a meeting of 500 Bradford fans on Monday.
www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/rugby-league/18686404
As far as I am aware, we had no financial support from the RFL and players were sold on for stupidly low sums of money!  |

I am worried for Bradford,I really am,their demise could well have serious implications for the rest of Rugby League.I will pray for you lads and hope you come through, this is no time for parochial attitudes we all need to help.

You state in that link that

Let's be generous and say that we raised a couple of hundred thousand (of which there was not a chance IMO). It wouldn't even have paid a month's wages. Even 500K would have been utterly inadequate to take the club forward.'"
I don't get why you so clearly state my original post was wrong  Surely £200,000 in a supporters trust now would be better than the £500,000 wasted from the pledges? |

If we'd wanted to go bust with two weeks notice in April then that's totally what should have happened. We didn't. Given the extent to which you lucked out you're not the last word on how to deal with your club being in danger.

Up the creek indeed.
If the Bulls fail to fulfill all their fixtures they can't just expunge their record because, as you rightly say we play one club three times. So, to keep the competition even, they would also have to expunge all the Magic Weekend results. Not sure what value they would place on the bad publicity from telling everyone that MM was total non-event but I suggest it would be a bit more than the figure they intend to loan (not give, incidentally). Not that the money would guarantee anything anyway, as it stands. |

I have to agree with you. Think the reason the RFL have done it is because they will have a major problem if Bradford go down. |

so for the Bulls to survive they need at least £200k instantly (loan from RFL), then need backers to buy club with enough wonga to keep HMRC happy circa £500k+...as HMRC wont accept a CVA as seen with other sporting clubs. So club folds, newco takes over asap but has no debt to HMRC or RFL £200k loan.......no paddle and approaching waterfall rapidly |

What they would have to do is to give all clubs two points from their Bradford fixtures, so Leeds would get six, and the rest four.
I honestly hope that it doesn't come to that even if it benefits us (Wigan). |

the other option would be to remove all resulted points from the previous games which would have a better affect to clubs like Wakefield who lost twice |

RFL did nothing to support Wakefield and we lost players for next to nothing. Bradford are having far better treatment from their administrator than we did. Makes you wonder if something has already been organised for the future.
Surely £200,000 in a supporters trust now would be better than the £500,000 wasted from the pledges?
