It's something to do with getting transfers through quicker. I don't know the ins and outs, but other clubs have done it in the past (Chisholm to Fev last year for example, Roche to Bradford) when there's every intention of it being a permanent signing but they start out on loan while it gets sorted. That way they can join immediately. I've genuinely never seen the exact thinking behind it, but it's something along those lines.
I don't think for a minute it's anything to do with him being recalled and fully expect it'll be a permanent transfer in the next month or two.


Not sure it's to make things happen quicker but probably more of a 'trial' to see if both parties 'fit'

or more a case of seeing if Evans can stay fit. Wouldn't be surprised if he gets injured and they terminate loan deal and we're left paying for a injured player. Likewise with the incoming leeds players, would these be season long loan deals with a recall option after first month? so really just a rolling loan to keep them match fit for when leeds need them.

Send in a question to ask the bulls. If it’s a genuine season long loan there will be no recall option, injured or not is my understanding

I think it’s a play on words, he is contracted to bradford till the end of 2020, so in effect no matter what he is no longer a bulls player

On the subject of those leaving (or left), League Express have done a "Rookies to excite us in 2020" feature, picking one from each Super League club. Huddersfield's is Oliver Wilson and Hull KR's is Matthew Storton. Both sold in the last 12 months to pay the Bradford bills.

Still can’t believe where we are with the season just around the corner, still no news on duel reg possibilities, all the players who have left and still leaving and we have replaced them with 3 signings, 100% bottom four, at best

Agreed.

To be pedantic we have brought in England, Barlow, Rooks, ,Nzungu, Johnson and i suppose Milnes is an out then in

But your point still stands 100%. With what we have at the moment ill be happy if we just stay up.

Never trust a man who, when left alone in a room with a tea cosy, doesn't try it on.

Isn't that what this season is about? Treading water until we get back to Bradford, trying to not lose too many fans?

TBH though I thought with the money we would save by not being at Odsal we could afford to replace the players sold off. Apparently not.

I think the money we have saved has gone to pay people off. When AC first muted about moving and a reduction in costs he failed to tell us we had a long list of creditors that needed paying off

Yeah, but he was one of the biggest and wrote his debt off
