When I speak to Bulls staff they seem relatively upbeat all things considered.

I'll be buying a season ticket.

The word I'd give for that is, 'platitude', not reassurance.

I'm far from sure just what actual 'reassurance' we can be given, unless there really is is some genuine light at the end of the tunnel - like a new backer coming in or maybe, just maybe, due to the "exodus", the financial load, is going to ease sufficiently to allow us to go forward. If things really are at the bad end of all the scenarios then I seriously can't imagine how we're signing players or even paying the wages at all. So I, and we, probably have to accept it's not quite as bad as in our nightmares.

I'm not sure how you would tell people that 'we're not exactly totally up the creek without a paddle and we're just, sort of, coping and hoping for the best' without frightening off a significant number. Truth is we can't afford to frighten off any more.

Platitude is probably a better word. I am really hoping and praying the club can say something rather than nothing, to give me the "reassurance" that my club is not that far down the tubes that there is no light at the end of the tunnel, if only for the sake of season ticket sales. Thanks for your comments.

I'm upbeat for next season. We have our spine sorted and have a bit of depth there too. Need some big forwards but there's always plenty of forwards about.

Slightly off topic but Moley has put on Twitter that HKR are about to bring Scott Prince out retirement to Play for them next year. He retired at the end of 2013. He will be 37 at the start of next season...

I don't know if anyone noticed this, but we had a positive article about us for next season in Total RL

http://www.totalrl.com/opinion-bradford ... enge-2017/

We must be doomed!!!

Wow.......

At least Pryce is a couple of years younger and has been playing and training regularly

I can't see Prince holding up physically on a cold wet Sunday up the slope at Batley at his age. He's in for a shock if he comes over.

Aye. And with him being dead, he'll struggle to keep shuttling back the 10, as well.

Good point. Even alive I think he lacked the physical presence needed.

Lots of individual flair though.

No longer Bradford

Hasn't really peaked for the last 17 years either.

He did do a cover of "When Will We B Paid?" though, so maybe best suited for Bradford.
