Bye Bye Bradford

As per the title - need £1million ASAP to keep going.....

Souths - totallly agree RL is a business these days, the Bulls board consists (or did) of an accountant, a solicitor etc.... these were the guy smaking the errors...

The solicitor and an ex copper started the ball rolling many many years ago, which ended up with the Bulls giving over £2mill to a rival club - the club has never recovered
now we have to face the loss of an overdraft facility (reputed to be £0.5mill) and a large tax bill for player image rights/payments offshore

Can you have a word with Mr Crowe and see if he wants an official UK feeder club? We can send another Burgess if it will sweeten the deal!!!

Ha! Ha! Ha!...The next Burgess we need is Mrs..B...to keep these boy's in-tac and cook for them.

Rumour has it the local shop owner has retired a rich man...

Well they only have themselves to blame as they practical gave away there season tickets this year and has obliviously backfired.They also keep on paying high wages to foreign players instead of giving local players the chance!!

First bits right!!

The second is a little off the mark though - Crookes, Addy, Pryce, Bateman, Burgess, Whitehead, Sykes, O'Brien, Donaldson etc... have all come through our youth system!

No. The second part is spot on. If the club are in the financial mire then you have to spend accordingly. If that means ALL your squad are through the ranks and you struggle, then thats the way it has to be.

It's called cutting your cloth.

I've voiced my support for the Bulls above, and hope something gets sorted. But like any other business, which it is, it needs to compete on affordable levels.

Virtually free season tickets is madness - unless you can afford to bank roll it.

Dont give them any money. If you reach your target it will keep the same BODs in place, if you dont it will go to the administrators.
Keep ya money in ya pockets and back a new owner.
