What more is there to say until some one genuine steps forward?'"
I hate to say it but I'm inclined to agree with both points. If you could enjoy it a little more subtly though, I'd be much obliged.

| Quote Ste100Centurions="Ste100Centurions"What happened to the guy with the waste processing plant proposal ?
WTF did the RFL not agree to a 3 way deal, RFL & 2 interested parties ?
Sell the lease to the $hithole to the waste guy, he buys the land & stadium from Bradford Council, he bulldozes the lot & builds his plant.
RFL get ££££ for lease & agree Bulls can groundshare & start 2017 in CH1 with new owner & ground share somewhere affordable.
Promote the highest placed CH1 Club to take Bulls slot.
Council get money, RFL get money, Bulls get to survive & rebuild properly, albeit from CH1, whats the £€CK!N' problem ? Everyone is satisfied (at differing levels).
Is this too simplistic a view or completely unworkable ?

Ste100 mate, Bongser absolutely adores your enthusiasm and the fact that only your, albethey well-intentioned, posts are more universally ignored than those of an over-errrrrrrm-tired Bongser.
Yours in Port.

1 major drawback in that proposal, it makes the RFL look complete and utter incompetent fools. They stole (paid a pittance) for the lease to safe guard rugby league at the iconic stadium in Bradford, also where will the bulls get £20m from to build a new stadium. The reason the waste recycling deal didn't come off was probably due to having to fund a stadium fit for the bulls to play in. Odsal is costing more and more each year just to keep up to current H & S regulations ( the council knew what they were doing off-loading that millstone with a near £5m sweetener, which was squandered) Is any business really going to pay £20m over the odds for odsal lease when in theory all they have to do is bide their time and wait for the land to become vacant. Just got to hope there is a philanthropist bidding and not just cold hard business men

Too simplistic I'm afraid.
Where is the suitable ground?
The highest placed L1 club by now has recruited for that division with a view to winning promotion and would not easily be able to compete in Championship. They would be in danger of relegation and being worse off in a years time than they they are now.
Getting planning permission for a waste disposal site is fraught with danger. Petitions from local people could delay things for years and that's always assuming the council would support the proposal in the first place.
You are looking at things purely from a Bulls perspective. Other people and organisations that are involved will have different priorities.

How many full circles have we actually turned in the last two months?

| I heard there's a possibility an NRL club that maybe getting involved, with players ready to lend,
Maybe sharks / irvine.
If this is the case which I'm sceptical of how would we go on with overseas quota? Does it apply to loan players?

No doubt if it doesn't it would be viewed as favouritism. We should be looking no higher than the Pennine League for loan signings, it's only fair.

| The sharks thing is misleading. The RFL have actually applied another penalty. All opposition teams can field one shark or another man eating animal of their choice as an additional defender.

| Quote Braveheart="Braveheart"For the RFL to ask for new owners to give personal financial assurances / guarantees that fixtures will be fulfilled for next 3 seasons they effectively restricted the process to 'money men' and removed the scope for an effective community interest approach with a prudent business plan.
A bit of a shame because it seems most supporters in most sports would rather see an approach ran by prudent business people with a model deep rooted in the community. Governing Bodies need to get real and start encouraging the development of sustainable clubs that serve their communities .'"
But on the plus side, it gets rid of the chancers who have no money and are trying to get the fans to pay for everything. The Richard Lambs of the world who shout from the rooftops every time there's an admin, but does absolutely nothing when push comes to shove. The Mark Moores of the world who try to buy the club with the season ticket money, who have already walked out on the club TWICE by spitting dummies about points being deducted.
As much as everyone wants a prudent business plan, the first year is going to take someone with some financial clout. Not some "all mouth, no trousers" bull$hit merchant like Lamb or Moore. If the RFL guidelines makes sure they have no involvement, they're doing at least one thing right.
I personally don't want either of those two anywhere near the club. Especially Mark Moore after his last "efforts" of getting people's hopes up, then dashing them all over again.

At least if there are only three of them the question of whether VAT is payable on the subs won't come up.

Not checked the rules, but I doubt it would even be mentioned. Players are players, full stop

Seems prospects for the club were defeated because there were questions unanswered. Anyway why would anyone invest, what would be an extraordinary amount of money without knowing the whole picture.
To edit-: "Rationally, the days where a sports club operates at a loss and is underwritten by a Patron should be gone." as the administrator suggests. Try telling that to the Majority of sports clubs.

| Seen as though the Bulls are supposed to be playing at Huddersfield in Luke Robinsons testimonial game 2 week today, could we come up with any ideas as to how that game could still go ahead. How many more ex Bulls players would they need to sign to get a full team to play against so we wouldn't need to send a team that day.
Hope that made sense
