No enjoyment out of this mucker, as a Leigh fan I've been in dark places to many times.

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

Cheesey smug Reet-Petit said in T&A "...To be clear, the issue has not been the potential for any other development.........."
How is that making it f'kin clear? - A much clearer way you n0bhead would be say "To be clear, the issue is..............(blankety blank)...."
Fill in the gaps - cos he cant!

Absolutely no one knows who is getting the club. Not even the RFL. There said it.

Deadline for bids is midday on Monday. A new club will be born at some point. The only thing that may change is where they start as timescales and player availability are short. The RFL may have to concede this and it wouldn't surprise me if they have alternative plans already in place if it is decided their original plans won't work.

Very true.

I'm sure Huddersfield can muster a Bradford Bulls select team themselves

Hope something can be sorted out for Luke Robinsons sake, be a shame if he misses out

Huddersfield can just play with themselves...

Apologies for being blunt but testimonial and friendly games are the least of our worries at the moment.
