I agree it is a sham - who in their right mind would invest in the Bulls without already knowing which league you are playing in .... but if we do not enter the race (same for Leigh and Fev) the RFL will just turn round and say you had the chance.

What we need are the remaining 13 SL members and the RFL to grow a back bone just like the SPL did with Rangers ......

PS bearing in mind the Bulls have been playing reasonably well what the hell happened tonight, after they are given hope they get murdered by what as been a faultering Hull side in recent weeks

Playing ' games ' is what we do on the pitch, thats where they should remain

Starbug ....

I have read a lot of things that you have posted on the Bulls page and in general agree with a lot of your views on rugby but sometimes you just have to play the silly RFL games as they make the rules .... I find it unlikely that 3 championship clubs will release a joint statement so you have to play the game.

If you join in the circus at least at the end of it you can complain when they make the wrong decision again - as much as I would love P and R I just cannot see it ...

If it was about playing games and great rugby why are Widnes in SL (No dig intended as they played the RFL game and met the criteria)

Whilst we all know that this is a joke and just a way of the RFL looking like they are in charge, Halifax and the other clubs must apply, as if they think they have a chance. If they do not apply then the RFL come out of this looking better than they should, they can say without it being a lie “Bradford’s bid was the best bid we received” If the other clubs apply for a licence, and Bradford get the nod, how can they not look like the set of cheating, manipulating good for nothings that we know they are.

Two minds.

The RFL and Dulls can just do one and not use us in our games.

Apply but insist everything is out in the open after. Who knows, that way we may find Big Nige and Banging Blake with their pants down!

Freddie! , dont lose your resolve, you know, You KNOW, how this will pan out, you were used then abused last year, is that what you want again ?

Having said that I also know how the BOD at Leigh will react to this, probably nievely thinking that the RFL actually give a stuff, I think they will apply

They're already in.

Yes, would be great for all three clubs to apply just so that the RFL can turn round and say how crap their application was and generally hold them to ridicule.

We shouldn't play along with the silly pretence just in the hope that one day in the distant future the RFL might consider expanding SL (because that's THE ONLY way a Champs club will get in) and might look back at who did the most ass kissing.


Wakefield are a nothing club - they went bust and the RFL didn't kick them out. They preferred their application to Halifax. When an "iconic" club like Bradford does the same it doesn't take a MacDonalds trainee to suss out what's going to happenn next.

Just had a heads up about a "major announcement" after today's game at Fev. I hope we haven't been fooled into joining in with this pantomime.
