Sad day for the sport no matter which way you look at it, but as usual the RFL find a way to make an even bigger balls up of it.

Not sure who you mean when you say some who think the new club has some right...

Unless you are referring to someone merely quoting what the RFL said

Jeez, our club has just been liquidated and we get posters trying to tell us that it's not fair? Some people amaze me at times. Just a couple of facts:

1. None of us fans have had any involvement in the running of the club.

2. We think that starting in ch1 is the best option as long as we have a club and some players. We have no control of what the RFL do. If you have an issue then please take it up with them.

3. Right Now, believe It or not, we feel a little bit down so trying to preach to us may not go down so well.

Yes, sad day for the sport, sh*t day to be a Bulls fan, so you would think a bit of empathy maybe is in order?

Again, vbfg was not supporting RFL in this, just stating facts. I am still yet to see one of us on here who want to carry on in the Championship with a 12pt reduction, so you really are ranting at the wrong people.

And that's why, even if we are no more, I will always turn my nose up at the hill people of Halifax. You know, that little town on the outskirts of Shelf.

On a more frivolous note, can this thread get to 100 pages before we get a buyer?

That's very true, once I am in rant mode there is little stopping me though! I am honestly sad for the fans, but on the other side of the coin its infuriating to see the rules constantly changed to benefit whomever they see fit, but there is no RFL board to rant at.

But has the cloth been cut accordingly?
