2weeks time until next payday? That'll be the deadline for the administrator to get funds/investor into the club.

By far the most sensible posts on this thread have come from mystic eddie. - copyright Ewwenorfolk 09.04.2013

Aye, and Eddie is hinting at it too. And, as we all know:

Mick Gledhill posted that no one told the players staff before the announcement went out on the club website. If that is true it is absolutely disgraceful.


What? Bradford Bulls in having difficulty in being upfront and honest?

That will hardly be a first.

I have said time and time again on here that the club have been deliberately "misleading" the club and being "economical with the truth" for years now, yet some people (with a strange form of "influence") continued to be taken in by it all and tried to make you all see sense.

Apparently intelligent people who knew more than most.

People have been shot down for years on here for daring to tell it like it is and not burying their heads in the sand.

Quite how it is so bloody obvious to me, away up here, yet apparently un-noticed by people who have more of a link to the club, its' staff and the city than I will ever have is bemusing in the extreme.

I know who will be quick to condemn this. The same people that always have done so. The same people who are utterly blind to the reality.

Our club is probably going to die from neglect, but the people who have blindly supported the crooks and shysters who have taken us there need to take a damn good look at themselves. Had you not been so gullible, then it may not have led to this.

Still, we will get a rabble rousing speech from Winston Medley and all will be forgiven.

Totally embarrassing.

Re: Administration Again : Tue Nov 15, 2016 10:27 am  
Let’s share our hilarious administration stories. When we went into administration the first time I was reading the news on my phone by the pool of a Menorcan villa. Despite the lovely surroundings I literally let out an involuntary sob. One of those primal noises that takes you by surprise. Fast forward a bit, and this time around I was in the drizzle outside Leeds bus station and I simply exclaimed “oh for fks sake” and carried on shopping.

That’s the apathy at play here. That’s the reason why I can’t be faffed explaining to self-absorbed Leythers why my post was actually about US not THEM, nor any other troll for that matter. Apathy feels quite dangerous to me, but that’s the level of not ar5sed we’ve sunk to watching this club; that’s rubbish isn’t it.

Thats OK. We already rattled around the bottom for nearly that long.


Not really. City were in the fourth tier of English football, and were in very serious danger of getting relegated down to the fifth tier (i.e out of the Football League altogether).

We still have some way to fall to get to that level of 'rattling around'

It seems that Mark Lawn is a straight talker. That's good if he comes in with a realism. We might need someone to be upfront and tell us to forget about SL for three or four years, whilst the club is properly stabilised, all the debt cleared and everything built from the bottom.

Perhaps one of Green's failings (and, to be fair, he never claimed to be 'a rugby man') is that he allowed himself to get swept along with the whole 'This club deserves to be in Super League' mantra?

That's exactly how it was. The fact that he isn't a rugby man led him to hire James Lowes and the rest, as they say, is history.

The problem is that what we are now seeing is the result of years of neglect and mismanagement at the club, which has now all come to a head. I am unsure why Mr Green is getting any stick at this time because he has one hell of a mess to sort out.

2 year old quote


Indeed. As I said, I could not see the issue "at that time" with Mr Green. That was two years ago.

Still, desperation having two year old quotes to bring up FA.

I struggle to see your point in all honesty.

It's not about what folk on here said is it?

I personally couldn't give a tiny toss what ME or FA said 4 years ago.

If you want to have that debate do it on another thread.
