Who'll do what to who is speculation until we have an owner.

As I said I'm not in the know but I get a feeling that there are a few aces up sleeves and plans already in place.

I don't think even the Rfl would embark on such a ridiculous project of starting a team and running it in two weeks.

Well as the saying goes "time will tell"

If the RFL deadline is "close of business Monday", and they say a week to determine which, if any, bid is accepted.
So we should know by Monday 16th January - excellent - plenty of time to get all the players together & trained.
I bet Hull KR are quaking in their boots - NOT!

It's seemed to be inbedded into the culture at the Bulls. When the website had gone down even whilst in admin the club lied and said it was technical issues. They just couldn't help their selves. A bit of honesty goes along way but I doubt any truth has come out of Odsal from the top in years.

Just look at the season ticket offer , free super league ticket etc etc..
When all along the writing was on the wall.

A clear out top to toe with a new board etc is the only way to try win back a bit of support and confidence in the club.

Including Duffy..

It is rapidly becoming one of my criteria for lending my support.

Maybe that could be a new thread or voting option;

What would be your number one reason for supporting the New Bulls?

I think mine would be - full overhaul of top management and transparency of accounts (dam, is that two?)

Re: Phoenix from the flames? : Sun Jan 08, 2017 6:43 pm  

The only way to have total transparency is to have some type of supporters trust involvement with representative on the Board. People here don't necessarily like that model but it is fit for purpose in this case imho

The comment about Duffy claiming we would be the richest club in rugby league has had me thinking. I wonder if it's anything to do with the guy who has left Sheffield in the complete poop. Didn't their chief exec throw an offer at Greg ingots saying they could match any wages in the country? Just food for thought

Maybe it was Duffy talking sh*t?

Oh agree probably the most likely outcome!! But just worry if it's someone like him who promised the world to Sheffield then pulled out when he got bored, what's the point
