It really does make you wonder what sort of due diligence process the RFL actually have.

Not what they've said, sounds like it might be a mixture of full and part time, who knows though with the Bulls. Already short of money apparently so that's a good start.

We’ll be making up the numbers for most of this year. Whether we make the effort to stay up isn’t yet clear. If we make it to 2018 to compete in the bottom division we’ll have done better than I expect.

Think we’ll be part time, I don’t believe the press release.

We've only been to Odsal once lately due to their inflated admission prices 'got in as concessions ' but they won't be getting any more brass off me. Our club are doing things the right way, mostly, and they expect the fans to pay for them to be full time. I don't think so. Still f/t, the same ground(paid for), even the same name so we're led to believe! It really is beyond a joke. You just couldn't write it.

I'm not as frugal as you (yet to meet someone who is ) but have to agree here.£34 in odsal for me/son lasy year compared to £17 for same fixture at Shay.Double price is a pisstake on it's own and they still go bust....as you say you couldn't write it..

Interesting to see today that Sheffield have announced the signing of Dane Chisholm, whom the Bradford Fans felt was a real star for them the 2nd half of last year. Link here: http://sheffieldeagles.com/News/Article/48195

Looks like Fev and Batley have bought wisely with that extra money. Not sure how Bradford and The Seagulls are managing to recruit with no brass though? Dave are you coming over on Sunday?

I reckon it's back to being a decent team again after the mess of last season
