According to their chairman. But "they have budgeted for it".

So did I Adam, so did I.

£500,000 that's the sort of nice round number they could ask their fans to pledge! or perhaps they will call FC and ask if we want to buy Lynch back from them

But that means they're paying for a playing squad they can't afford and that's just wrong.



I am shocked and appalled that Hull FC are allowed to carry on in this manner. They're a disgrace to Super League and the sport of Rugby League and for the moral good of the sport and the league the RFL MUST throw them out of Super League and force them to compete in the lowest league.



Hull FC are morally and ethically WRONG and should be punished severely.

The difference between Hull is that their owner is paying for a squad they can't afford, not the taxman and local suppliers as in Bradford's case.

And for your information, irony doesn't mean "A bit like iron"

There was nothing ironic in your post. Bradford should have been punished severely, the fact they weren't just shows the game is run by idiots.

Please not another financial thread about a team in trouble (No offense FA)



I dont think i can take another 2 week arguement about who's team is the more wrong! Either way this sort of news, even if it will be swallowed by the owner is not good news at all!



We as fans should know what its like to have it stuck at us over the past months so lets not do it to other teams! But just my opinion!

The former Bradford Bulls Holdings Ltd WAS punished severely. It is now hurtling towards oblivion.



The new, totally unconnected company that the RFL has awarded the vacant franchise to started with a clean sheet and so therefore the issue of punishment should not be relevant. Because had there been a better candidate for the vacant freanchise, doubtless the RFL would have awarded it to that company and they would have taken up the franchise free of any impediment.



Yet for some reason the new company has been severely punished for the sins of the totaly unconnected old company - not even the sins of the father being visited upon the sons, moire like being visited on the fourth cousin twice removed. SO yes you are quite correct - the game is indeed run by idiots.

Cheeky kn@@@@ u lot...

SL buy ground....the whole of SL help u out and SL look to bail u out and u escape breaching the criteria for a SL club to exist one...

Your club has exploited and started something...

Thin end of a wedge comes to mind!!

Stones n glass houses!!

Should be championship now!!!

Remind me again how, a few years ago, the RFL stepped in to save Hull FC from oblivion?

But they are the biggest club in the league in the heartland of the game, and in a truly rugby city!!!!!



how can this happen when they are getting 50,000 people every week to watch them?





seriously. the league need to do something about this. The game as a whole is unsustainable unless somebody grows some balls and really looks at clubs and spending.



perhaps investing long term in shiny new stadia, and therefore long term financial liabilities wasnt the best way forward???? The league and the way licenses are issued could be to blame as clubs have overstretched them selves to get these new grounds, thinking it would be a license to print money????



time for a serious debate. not just points scoring about who should have been booted out or not.
