Very upsetting times at the moment... high emotion i would suggest is the reason for all the finger pointing!

In fairness, i believe the only reason you have stuck the blame for Koppie is basically because you were named in the T&A article and the thread on hear discussing deals for Koppie and Gale... Not enough evidence for me to jump in head first!



All this bad blood is not good in my opinion and i dont get involved... as far as i can work out Koppie recieved a letter saying his contract was TUPEd over as of the 31st Aug! He has given notice that he objects so he is free to leave... seems to be the top and bottom of it!

On a side note hopefully this means the majority of our key players have accepted a to be TUPEd and now we can get on with earning our own way!

Koppie has looked after number 1, cant blame him at all in that! I just think it could have been timed better for his hometown club is all!

Ok we have recieved a lot of help from the RFL, but i for one hope we can move away from that and mkae our own way! I am a proud bulls fan because of my players and their attitude this season... the debacle has been very very bad!

See, this is the kind of thing that makes me and a lot of our fans have bad feelings towards that lot......this isn't the 1st time their fans have jumped in head 1st presuming our club are at fault or are involved in something they then round shouting their big gobs off accusing our club/chariman/board/fans of doing or not doing something - this has been going on since the day we arrived in SL and its cos of these people i have no time or sympathy for anything to do with Bradford Bulls.

Here Here Giant Daz, ATEOTD there is only 1 place any blame shoul lie for the situation Bradford Bulls are in and it ain't in Huddersfield!!!!

The thing is you are tarring all Bulls fans with the same brush. You are right in that we have fans that could not find their own rear end with both hands - and needless to say they are the ones with the big gobs. Think my gran used to say something about empty vessels making most noise. Similarly we have quite a few visits by gobby Giants, but what should be remembered is that these people that cannot see the difference between banter and fact. I think when you read all the posts about Koppy you will see that most are pi55ed off with the way he has done things. Most people think that he is right to look after himself and his family in the long run. However, to walk out on the club two days before the last match without having the decency to either tell the manager or his teammates himself shows a lack of respect. He could have played in the match and then resigned afterwards with no problems.

Maybe the offer of payment in samosa's wasn't to his liking

sorry, but thats Bradford's problem not ours .......the player has chose to do what he has done for his reasons not the Giants, its only rumour that suggests we have signed him, no one knows for sure what or if anything has gone on regarding us and the player....so for Bulls fans to lay into our chairman and club - AGAIN, without any proof is in my eyes very disrespectful, someone called our club 'scum' and a disgrace.

I realise things are a bit tender over at Odsal but to take it out on other clubs and other chairmen is frankly laughable !

Kopczak had to resign as he was only given 48 hours to decide his future. If he had played it would have been deemed that he was accepting the TUPE. Why send out letters in the last week of the season? Why was it not done after the game? Looks to me like his team mates are not as smart or they are on big bucks and are sat waiting like the fat cats did at Portsmouth FC.
