Maybe the simple solution is to continue the lease at the same rate but the RFL retain responsibility for maintenance. They could do this quite easily with an under the counter deal which seems to be their favoured modus operandii

Well, at Odsal, the new club is very unlikely to have the turnover to do even basic maintenance if we're still paying 70k per annum for the ground. In fact, I can't imagine how they'll find the cash to pay the rent. Still, we're used to admin every two years, aren't we?

Given your postings in the other threads I'm sure what you've put is accurate, even if it is puzzling.
All I will say is that if your son is/was a Bulls player or just a RL player in general, just be careful what you put on here because I'd hate for you to land him in hot water just to inform a few lost souls on a message board.
There are other parents of players on here too and I know that they have to bite their lip at times.

I'm frankly amazed you think I was writing it for their consumption. I'm happy to talk about the flat cappers in a public forum using concepts that they are unlikely to fully comprehend, because they are poop and probably vote UKIP.


I approve. Have you tried this approach on the Facebook banter page?

I feel it's right for you to know, it is your club. What I understand with this news is that the RFL deadline is Monday but a new owner could be in place this weekend. That seems like the administrator has had this bid lined up all along to come in during the period where the club is in legal limbo until the liquidation papers have sent off and officially signed.

If I can find out anymore details I'll let you know.

Blaming the rent you paid why not blame the person who signed 30+ full time players when they was cr@p went and signed more.

Nothing to do with the lease why not have a part time club with that amount of players or a full time club with less players.

You was not in superleague get you bully spectacles off this is down to how its run not the rfl or the rent

This isn't going to be the most insightful or articulate post but what the actual f.uck? Have I to put the grieving on hold or just crack on?

And another one who hasn't read all the other posts where people do nothing but blame Marc Green.

If you're going to troll, at least make sure you have the correct info first.

Re: Phoenix from the flames? : Thu Jan 05, 2017 10:48 am  
I'm amazed at how many people still think we will be ok just because we’re Bradford and we won the Super League in recent memory.

People thought we’d be ok because we’re Bradford after we raised half a million in 2 weeks – we weren’t
People thought we’d be ok because we’re Bradford after we went into admin the first time – we weren’t
People thought we’d be ok because we’re Bradford after we had half the Sky money for two seasons – we weren’t
People thought we’d be ok because we’re Bradford after we went into admin the second time – we weren’t
People thought we’d be ok because we’re Bradford after a six point deduction in the only season where there was straight relegation for finishing in the bottom two for the best part of a decade – we weren’t
People thought we’d be ok because we’re Bradford after we got relegated and we’d go straight back up – we didn’t
People thought we’d be ok because we’re Bradford after we failed to make the top 4 this season – we weren’t
People thought we’d be ok because we’re Bradford after we went into admin for the third time and we’d definitely find a buyer – we didn’t
People NOW think we’ll be ok if we go in the Championship with no players and a month’s notice just because we’re Bradford. Anyone want to hazard a guess at what might happen now based on the previous trend?

Granted not everyone thinks this way, but I’ve had enough of the drivel that we’ll be ok because we’re a formerly (key word) big club. You can slap a Mercedes badge on a clapped out written off 2003 Skoda if it makes you feel better, but it doesn’t mean it’ll get you to work on time.

My understanding pre-liquidation was that most bids revolved around having the option to buy back the lease completely - is there any reason to suggest this would now not be a requirement of the bidders?


There were at least two interested parties who did not have the lease as their primary concern, I've no idea how far into the bidding process they went but they are both one of the 10 interested parties still, 1 of them is lamb and Irvine.
