The administrator has to run the club after some sort of a fashion so he still has something to sell. If the money runs out he has to simply close it down. And of course he will include his own remuneration in what he needs to have available.

The so-called interested parties must have known all too well what the end results would be of this uncertainty dragging on into and through the season, and as I am sure any potential buyer with a brain would never in a million years have wanted to started losing players like Scruton, I conclude that there is no serious buyer there.

And even if there was, this won't have helped. I'm struggling for a silver lining in all this

If your post is consistent, you would have to say "why Bradford" too, or else it makes no sense.

But we are talking about players leaving a club to go to another club that might just be in the relegation fight.Anyway,I'm not looking for an argument,been a Bulls fan at the moment just leaves you lacking any motivation for anything right now

Won't the administrator just view them as realisable assets with a value? He won't be interested in whether the team will win.

Like all people who do things for a living, he is probably looking at no more than paying his bills. The worrying thing for the Bulls appears to be that he has signed for a one-year deal. That suggests that he views that as more secure than staying at Bulls. (or leaves his options open if Wakey go down, I suppose. Canny deal by both parties, I suppose).

Lamb was talking a few days ago about the Bulls coming straight back up from the championship. Maybe the possible new owners don't see relegation as a possible scenario but an expected outcome. Clearing the decks of all high earners and keeping the kids is what I would do. Are the Bulls now preparing themselves for the lower league?

The effect on the monthly balance sheet could be the biggest gain. The more the club looks sustainable with less investment, the more likely you would find a buyer, I guess.

But I can understand your concern that to lose two props is a real sickener.

Slightly disappointed the club haven't thanked Scruton for his efforts. Come on guys lets have more Class! The club only have themselves to blame!

Massive blow.
