surely it won't of cost that much to run even if it didn't add to it,

that's like pulling the plug on someone that's in a coma

I can't believe they've had the cheek to ask the fans to pay to get in this weekend. They ask for fans to buy season tickets, then they ask for them to donate £500k and then ask the same people to pay on the gate!

The websitye will be "Hosted" they probs haven't been paid so they will have pulled the plug

Best get the RFL to shell out some more then !!!

You may be right but, if the boot was on the other foot, you would probably be happy to pay to keep your team alive (just) and bearing in mind if they did go pop, the fans will have tickets to watch nothing.
It's naughty to ask them to pay, albeit on a voluntary basis but, the ST were bought very cheaply, so even if the fans pay again for the last 5 or 6 games, they will still have paid less that the price of a "normal" ST.

Just going o/t for a minute. With the Bulls situation and with Shudds also likely to substantially increase their own S/T prices, it will be interesting what happens next season at Wakey.
Trying to maintain rising spectator numbers may be difficult if we increase our own price significantly, but there is certainly likely to be a change.

I probably would be happy to do that, providing the club hadn't just emotionally blackmailed me into helping throw half a million quid down the ter.

I guess everyone has an opinion on it. Depends on the individual. As one that was blackmailed into coughing up £100 for the £500k appeal I'm in two minds about paying £20 on Sunday. I've no idea where the money will go. For all I know we could be certainties for liquidation on Tuesday and all I'll be paying for is the administrator.

Interesting times

It sounds depressingly familiar - we've been there and done it but thankfully, we didn't buy the £1,000 a pop t-shirts.

Personally, I still think that a 'White Knight' is working closely with the administrator and what's happening right now is an exercise in clearing the decks before he rides in to save the day, free from the liabilities he doesn't want; if that wasn't the case, Mr Guilfoyle wouldn't have hesitated to flog the family jewels by now.

Just turn up and pay, what more can you do, at least you and others tried to help support the club.


Thats what fans do.

Reports on twitter say there quite a few parties interested in taking over the bulls now...

What's the saying

Fool me once, shame on you
Fool me twice, shame on me?!

Not if you are George W Bush!

There could well be, but there is only one of the interested parties, controlling the administrator!
I said a month ago that if Caisley was not in charge of a debt free Bulls in the next 6 weeks i would be very surprised and i dont see that changing. He is building himself up to be the hero while also getting rid of anybody he doesnt want, at no cost to himself. I am that convinced of this that i would say paying on the gate, for me, will make absolutely no difference whatsoever to the outcome.

Would have been interesting if Mick Potter had agreed to work for nothing. May have cost the new company a few quid to get shot then.

Does this mean Armageddon is to be be averted at the last minute

?

Based on the musings of the media / press & the nihilistic predictions from many Bradford fans the club was to be no more, at best a championship club in future years.

The hysteria created by this sorry affair has been unrivalled, however, anyone of sound mind could see the fait accompli.

Yeah thank the lord, Bradford are back from the brink, well done the Rugby League family

.

I will not pay a penny extra till i find out if the club will be saved and if so by whom. Why should i pay even more just to line the pockets of the administrator? I'd rather cough up to fund a new team in CC1 rather than give money to a Caisley run club in SL.

Nobby volunteered to come in and coach for free this weekend against Larndon, but fans "allegedly" don't want him, so he might not bother...

Its been said on here I dont think it's Noble thats the problem just what it might lead to! plus I think what Mick Potter said had a bearing on Brian Noble's decision, so far! He could change his mind..

Would be STRANGE to make signings from the bulls as it's normally us that's the prey and not the vulture!! 

Andy Ellis may as well pack his bags then.

Isnt he a quota player? Wheres the room gonna come from?

As with Crussders, foreign players become quota-exempt???

Double edged sword mate, just imagine a new investor(not CC) for the sake of this is waiting untill sunday to see if the fans are willing to back the team, say 8000 turn up and pay, he'll maybe reckon its worth a shot.

Or 2000 turn up and he walks away.

I understand you're view and can't blame you tbh, but if it was me i would turn out.

Nothing suprises me with Agar. IMO it would be a STRANGE signing to bring in another hooker when we are short in other areas, and particularly when the lack of game time attributed to those already contracted, is the form of Paul Aiton and his ability to play 60+ mins

would be a bit crowded in dugout given potters taking charge of sundays game.

Sir Mick Potter is back, presume it's for the players benefit mainly... But still what a guy. Just hope we can get a buyer and hold onto him.
