A question for Bradford fans, would you prefer someone who says they are going to throw money at the situation or someone who is going to try something new but run the club on a tight leash?

As a fan of another club I'm just interested in what the fans want the new club to look like, and how they'd accept it being run.

I just want somebody who will go all out and try get us back into super league for next season. If we fail then worry about it at end of the year

Isn't that what Green did though? Spending on players to try and find a magic formula beyond our means

I dont care if Billy Smarts Circus wins the bid - whoever gets it will say all the right things (as usual), but unless we start winning the important games we will end up in this same position again in a year/two.
If we'd won the million pound game - would we in liquidation?
If we'd beat Fev and got into the top 4 - would we be in liquidation?

Ronan obviously wrote those lyrics after reading that well known book "The Life of a Bulls fan"

So from what I see. These bids have gone to the RFL not the administrator. He is busy sorting out the liquidation. There is no requirement to pay HMRC with these bids as they have lost their money as the company that owes it has ceased trading and is being liquidated. The 50k mentioned by the RFL was a suggestion only as this would show goodwill to the local businesses who have been stitched up again. In other words bids that offer to do this would be treated favourably in the process of selection.

Is the above about right?
