Dont think we would be that stupid to let a contracted player from another club train with our squad some how.......

Re: gareth carvell : Mon Feb 10, 2014 6:06 pm  

Wouldn't hold your breath to have him in place before Friday, unless Pearson whips out his cheque book.

Re: gareth carvell : Mon Feb 10, 2014 6:21 pm  

Whips out his cheque book to pay whom? As far as I can work out Carvell is a free agent. All Bradford are doing is trying to save face. Carvell will be a Hull player.

I wasn't impressed when linked with him early in pre season but I would rather have him in the squad than not at this stage. I feel like most we need beefing up the middle. Keep Miller add Carvell I'd be happy.

Who would he pay ?
No one knows who owns Bradford do they ?

Re: gareth carvell : Mon Feb 10, 2014 6:50 pm  

Which Bradford Bulls is he contracted to?

Re: gareth carvell : Mon Feb 10, 2014 9:49 pm  

I thought it had already been established that he's not contracted to anyone.

Bradford may hold his registration however.

Bradford bulls 2014 do hold his registration with the rfl. It was transferred from OK Bulls to Bradford Bulls 2014 along with all the other assets (such as they are) during the admin sale.

All this will take to resolve is a relatively small "undisclosed payment" from Hull FC to Bradford Bulls 2014 for the release of the registration. Hull FC can then brief that the amount was minimal, Bradford can brief that it was substantial, Carvell can play for Hull FC and everyone can move on.

I hope this doesn't drag on much longer, it's becoming a side show distraction that both teams could do without, doubt if he will play Friday unless it's resolved today.

Maybe we should get some top London lawyers on the case...............

As long as its not the ones who tried to get Chase a visa.

Someone on the Bulls board suggested we paid the Bulls all his wages back in return for his registration. I think this is a fair result and if some rummours are to be believed that'll be pretty much sweet FA.
