I have intended to give Bradford Bulls £1m and here is the subsequent documentation to prove it

Someone tell this muppet that the statements to which I referred were in:

1 - The Administrator's proposals report

2 - The letter the administrator sent out to creditors.

Note how, true to form, when they cannot carry an argument they resort to derision?

Commiserations guys. Keep fighting, plenty of games left and who knows - there could be a few more twists and turns yet on the rollacoaster.

Why did Moore & Co set up BB2014 if they had any genuine intention of purchasing OK Bulls?

Is that wording what you meant to say? Anyway, whatever the question means, at the first fans forum after OK quit, someone asked why BB2014 had been set up and was told it was nothing sinister, the club would be continuing as before, and Robbie Paul went to great pains to repeat "we are NOT going into administration".

LeagueDweeb wrote:

Let's not forget the directors of BB2014 had allegedly agreed a purchase of OK Bulls from Omar Khan, they joined as directors of the company, and then didn't proceed with the purchase upon learning of financial issues that miraculously Ryan Whitcut knew nothing about.

They didn't pay the agreed price for the shares and are being sued. What "financial issues" do you suggest they could have "known nothing about"?

After detailed discussions, the RFL didn't accept the business plan & forecasts of BB2014.

Not so, BB2014 were accepted by the RFL. It was however on terms including 6 points deduction and special measures. BB2014 stated they withdrew because they had (a) been seriously misled (b) were not prepared to accept remaining in special measures.

"The restrictions and penalties, placed on the club, leaves it all but impossible to grow the business in this relegation season.
"As such we were left with no other option than to withdraw the offer to the administrator, based on what we believe is an immoral position from the sport's governing body due to their involvement in this whole affair.

BB2014 then withdrew their offer to purchase the assets from the administrator. They did this on the 24th February.

Bradford Bulls Reporter
Bulls chairman Mark Moore has announced that Bradford Bulls 2014 Ltd, the holding company which had a bid to purchase the club accepted last week, has today withdrawn its offer.

The RFL then imposed a points deduction on 25th February.

Only an idiot would believe that BB2014 withdrew BEFORE the decision on sanctions was made. Why on earth would they do that? Whatever dates any announcements were made it must be beyond any sensible dispute (thus not excluding you, of course) that the chicken of the decision prompted the egg of the withdrawal. Your implication that BB2014 withdrew the day before they would have known of the decision is frankly nuts.

Several pages after your most pompous post, you now make your most ironic. Keep it up!

BTW my views on Adeybull are exactly like my view on my countrys' First Minister Mr Alex Salmond. I am deeply embarrassed that the two of them seem to think that they are representing the views of a group and keep pedalling a load of boring claptrap.

Just like Mr Salmond does not represent the majority view in Scotland over the Independence debate, Adeybull does not represent the majority of Bradford fans. I just wish he could be voted off.

OK Bulls actually received the full allocation of Sky money in 2013. It got the same as every other club. The original plan was 50% over the two remaining years of the licence, with it all to be paid in the second year.

Omar Khan asked for the Sky money to be advanced so the amount of money that was scheduled for year 2, which was in effect one full years money, was handed over in year 1.

The truth is that OK Bulls had the same money as every other club, but still went under because it was so badly run by Khan & Whitcut.

That's simply not true. 2013, the other clubs took the Bulls Sky money to the tune of about £1 million.

You can look it up.

He is, as usual, lying and presenting his lie as fact. No change. At least everybody else knows the Bulls were on half money of the other clubs for 2 years, so what the troll's motivation for this strange claim is, I couldn't even begin to guess.

Of course, the troll insists on sworn statements and copies of notarised documents evidencing everything anyone else ever says - yet never backs up its own weird claims with anything. Wonder why?

Thank you. You hadn't made a post reiterating your personal issues with another poster for at least 5 minutes, and so I had almost forgotten that you don't like him. Please could you repeat the above, or something similar, at least once a page, as it isn't fair to leave the thread just to discuss the subject at hand, we need more sniping.

Adey is the worst offender for sniping on here. He deserves everything he gets.

Thank you. However although I asked for one snipe a page, I think that a snipe every other post is probably a tad more than even snipe aficionados really need.

What I think, is that there is too much sniping on here.
Anyone who disagrees with something written by another poster, should say why they disagree with the points raised and not turn it into a 'me and him' scenario.

The 'me and him', ad hominem stuff, just becomes acrimonious and leads to threads being locked, which none of us want.
