I was being cheeky

beadford's business model is unsustainable. They need to start from scratch, not take on more debt

Aye, folding then re-emerging like a phoenix in a lower divisision without the debt could be best for all concerned and at least the supporters would still have a club.

Let them sort it themselves.
They have had enough help over the years and their cap breaking salaries has come back to bite them.
Bend the rules they may have done and got away with it at the time but all the money that has passed through that club in the SL era has been squandered.
Didn`t they get 400k for Fielden who was on 200k.
Jestyn Harris was allegedly on 1/4 million a year whilst there, the Paul boys 150k each. And these are salaries that I can recall being talked about at the time.
Rocket science it aint

If anybody is going to save them, I suspect Sky will have something to do with it.....

A few got involved last time, hope they do again. Interestingly, I didn't see anything to suggest Harris was one of those helping out, though, and he must have taken more out of that club than most.

Harris just about caused all this

as for the £100k, no, although we could afford it, i know one club would not after losses of £450k pa since they joined the league.......

Probably one of many super league clubs that will fold over the next few years.............

Nope, they got themselves into the mess it is up to them to get out of it. Maybe they could merge with Keighley and take the name Keighley Bulls

Just the first on many clubs to disapear i imagine over the next couple of years , old debts kicking them in the ass, poor management, cap fiddling, over paying wages, directors taking hand outs
They need to be wound up and start agin from the bottom and get it right this time for their fans, but i do mean start again and move from that turd of a stadium as well
what comes around goes around.... got no sympathy now

Is there any need for that? you should seek professional help my friend rather than spout poison. it may be rovers took the course of action after 20 years of hull fc decaring themsleves the so called master race of rugby league and belittering hull kr at every opportunity. I put it to you that former director stephen ball declaring that hull kr was nothing! and never will be didnt help your cause.

says it all about em eh "belittering"

There is absolutely zero evidence of their directors taking money out of the club - quite the opposite in fact. They may well have been incompetent but they weren't on the make.

Their 'cap fiddling' was no worse than the majority of clubs.

Barring Wigan....theirs was very delibirate.

Fair point.

And your owner tried to pull a similar scheme when he was behind the attempted 'Irish buyout'.
Strangely enough that fact is often forgotten.
Neither attempt painted the clubs in a good light.
So technically you tried it first.

No call for F.C. to do that........us fans can manage quite comfortably by ourselves.

want that were all the fans came form, if bradford go under cant see them off to watch - leeds, castleford, wakey, so keighley will make some money ??

you know them personally do you???

Agree

I'm not the one making baseless allegations.

no, you're offering a baseless defence

kath and garry to buy the bulls

no joking aside just been said on boot's 'n' all That bradford have 17 players coming out of contracts, who would u have at hull nxt season, Also brian carney has just said that the £500,000 what got raise before easter will had gone on two months wages for the bulls players ???????

so your defence has foundation, prey tell
