Mudslinging, vilification & condemnation?

If you choose to bury your head in the sand, that's your call.

When the Bulls go pear shaped again, I won't come back & say I told you so.....

If Bradford Bulls had been relegated to the bottom division (as I advocated should be the case for any club going bust) we wouldn't have had all this trouble.

The figure of £50m seems to be the sum of what government money had gone to Trident over a 10 year period. Trident did spend a whole lot of money on fulfilling its role, and as nobody else appears to have been arrested, and as this Zubare Khan was in a senior position for 2 years, (though I understand he had been a part of Trident in a more junior role for the whole period) I am completely baffled why the total funding over a decade is being thrown into the discussion, unless it is for dramatic effect.

There is NO suggestion that the police have investigated misappropriation of £50m of public funds and anyone who says they did is simply lying.

Calm down, I simply answered your question. You asked how much public money the organisation in question had got - the answer is £50m or thereabouts. Nowhere did I suggest or imply that this was the amount under investigation. If I have misinterpreted your question then I apologise, but perhaps you should have been a bit clearer as to what you were referring to.

So far as I am aware not a single allegation has been made against either Omar Khan, Joshi or Greenwood, and none of them have resigned from the board of the organisation nor been pushed out. I don't know the current makeup of Trident but do know that Ian Greenwood did NOT resign. He relinquished his position as vice-chairman, but remained on the Board at that time.

I didn't say there had been any allegations against those people, you're making that up so you can have a rant. Greenwood is not on the board of Trident now, so unless he was sacked then he resigned. Nobody is suggesting that he resigned due to any impropriety.

West Yorkshire Police are NOT investigating.

Semantics, they WERE investigating, I wasn't aware that it had concluded. Mea culpa.

Are you suggesting otherwise, or that OK, GS, VJ or any of the Bulls management are or were under some sort of police investigation?

Erm, no I am not suggesting anything of the sort. How you can draw that conclusion from what I wrote is beyond me. Basically, you asked 5 questions and I gave 5 answers, I did not suggest, imply or otherwise infer anything from those answers. You made the rest up in your own head.

Greenwood was on the pay roll at Bradford Trident. There is practically nothing to show for that £50m. It was a 'jobs for the boys' scheme.

Stick a fork in the Bulls, they are done.

What's that saying about protesting too much

Yup.
When the Broncos went under pre Harlequins, rules were brought in to prevent a club simply re-forming & carrying on
RFL owns tOdsal lease so the rules went in the bin.
