Still trying on taylor, also looking at Amor and one more player

Over and out

If above are confirmed 99% on here will be over the moon and I will be certainly one of them. Johnson and Elima would be great additions in a vastly changing squad but I think the greatest improvement is the setup and mentality Gentle and AP are trying to imply.

Surely with the signings already made and ones being touted we will be a vastly improved outfit next year but also in the future.

Big Brother, how confident are you that the above still fold firm after Bradford Buy Out?

Re: Rumours.... : Sat Sep 01, 2012 9:26 am  

I still can't see anyone buying Bradford if its best players were already on their way.

I noticed its not confirmed they will be in SL next year, this is from a news article today:

"Solly confirmed that Bradford would enter a mini round of licensing, most likely featuring leading Championship clubs Featherstone, Leigh and Halifax, to determine whether they would be allowed to see out the remaining two years on their current licence.
Solly said it was hoped a decision would be made in "two weeks tops, earlier if possible".

all bids had to be unconditional, maybe the administrators allowed clubs to approach players to take over their contracts or offer new ones whilst the club was in turmoil, still dont understand how a club who was in administration didnt offload any players, regardless of how much money the rfl gave them to pay wages to cut back on the wage bill

Re: Rumours.... : Sat Sep 01, 2012 9:56 am  

The Bulls, once they entered administration should have booted straight in to NL2 by default, regardless of whether they found a buyer.

Re: Rumours.... : Sat Sep 01, 2012 10:09 am  

if we were to get Elima, Whitehead, and Bateman, Tickle must be going, how can we have that many backrowers? Or Tickle into front row?
I think having Bateman, Whitehead, Elima, Kent, Pitts, Westerman, Ellis, Tickle and Aspinwall(staying?) is too many first team backrowers
FWIW I don't think we'd sign those three anyways, maybe one of them.
