So is that the big news?
What happens after 4pm on Wednesday?

Interesting, if him and his brothers have teams would add some real excitement to matches involved ing said teams, think it would only be good for the game in the respect of having them really wanting to beat each other.

They sue. They've been quoted as saying they have deep enough pockets to persue it too

I eagerly bought my first copy of Rugby League Express in years this morning, and couldn't find any exclusive. The rise in price to £1.50 was news to me though.

Regarding recent events, there's nothing in there that will make much difference to Bradford as far as I can tell. There is, however, a good chance that some at the RFL will look incredibly stupid as the board as was seem very confident of their position. There are some choice quotes from Moore, including:

"What is the RFL hiding? We know what evidence we have."

Also, tucked away in a different article is a quote from RHP saying that the old board are willing to help out wherever they can.

As for 4pm Wednesday, that isn't very clear given that they are already persuing legal action. I'd guess at either suing for defamation (or libel or whatever the term is in this specific context) or putting the evidence Moore mentions into the public domain. Or both?

Meanwhile, Rome burns.

So Moore and all must be very confident of their position. It does not really help the Bulls any though does it?
Or does it?

If it puts more obstacles or delays into resolving the ownership of the club it cannot be good. However an interesting proposition for our legal friends to decide if you can be defamed by a body nobody takes seriously?

Can I view this story online anywhere??

Don't get League express down here!

You've saved me £1.50. I'll split that with you.

Anyone buying the Club now doesn't have to bother in one respect with paying out creditors as Sod Hall have decided that it's a 6 point deduction come what may! So any incentive to fully pay off creditors are now off the table!
It looks very much like any prospective owner will not be putting in the amount needed to bring the club back up to a more even financial footing.
I just wonder if a Forensic Accountant would find it interesting into looking at the microcosm of fiscal mismanagement of the Bulls and the Bulls & RFL from 1995/6 onwards??

Probably not as interesting as looking at the accounts of RBS and the Bank of Scotland (note the link Mr Salmond) who make the efforts of the Bulls management look positively inspired, and while the antics at Odsal are hell for us Bulls fans at least we haven't put the whole country in the brown stuff!
