If the worst case scenario was to happen to bradford, should we as a club be sniffing around?



Does anyone think some of their players could do a job for us? if so who?



discuss...

Do you really believe we are in a position to take any more players in? I'm pretty sure the only way we could is by off-loading several before we even start thinking about this.



Just goe's to show that even by getting 10,000+ supporters thruough your gates using heavily discounted season tickets over several years you cannot sustain a business by discounting alone.



Personally, I hope they get the funding they need to keep going but I think it will be hard to get £1m in donations by mid April.

I actually hope they don't - the deal for the RFL to buy the ground stunk for a variety of reasons I opened up at the time and perhaps others may look at our conservative middle of the road "lacking ambition" if you prefer to call it that management and appreciate that the LACK threat of financial doom is something to be proud of.



Without point scoring, ask our neighbours accross the common - I am not having a pop, but you have to balance the books.



If Bradford cant sustain a business on their income, then a charitable bail out only prolongs a failing business. Even with the ground sale? Bad business management anyone?

Correct me if im mistaken, but hasnt basil said numerous times thats if the 'right player' became available he would sign? i maybe wrong lol.



getting back on topic, if it was the case and we were able to snatch 1-2 anyone you fancy?

We shouldnt be waiting , we should get in there now with some daft offers , THEY NEED CASH NOW

My memory may be wrong but haven't the Bulls had a couple of us when we've gone down over the years? Lynch, Platt and Godwin spring to mind but I may be wrong.

Don't hold you're breath I smell a bail out.

Correct, but in fairness to us we were excluded from SL at the start and have not won nearly a dozen trophies in that time. To mis manage a long time fading club like Trinity is bad enough, but to get a poster boy club like the Bulls in this sate is criminal and could have been avoided if acted on much much earlier.

People who are on our BODs back about spending more on players need to take heed!!

Absolutely agree, on ALL points.

The issue that will be hard for the Bulls fans will be entering administration, its not at all good, but they will see in time that the people who got them into this position will be gone, and at this point that (and the continuation of their team) is the most important thing.

Wakey paid up unnecessarily much of our debts, and i think that is a honourable thing to do although i do think it SHOULD be done, it won't convince ming mong's such as forrard or whatever its called at the minute, but for a club in trouble, being badly run and hurting it's self and its own supporters, administration should be looked upon positively.

IF any club was in trouble i would advocate administration as a way of cleansing the clubs soul, under strict conditions.

Also agree with this.

They don't raise the funds, they go bust, "Bradford Bulls 2012 Ltd" is hastily formed with a clean slate, signs up all the players and plays their home games out of the RFL's latest acquisition. The creditors get sod all, nobody says a word and it's all forgotten about come Franchise time....
