I find the current state of affairs a bit baffling all round really. How are we signing such quality these days? What have we planned for Odsal? Does the club know something interesting we don't (league getting bigger?). I can't cope with boom and bust again. No more false dawns!

Your investor has said his money can only be used on the playing squad or that is the rumor that seems to be doing the rounds. Anyone any idea how much he actually won?

Heard the big screen may be on its way back, to use the frame at the rooley lane end and gain another fraction of an img point

I've never heard a rumour of a lottery winner. Is this common knowledge? Why haven't you all told me you massive meanies?!

So far we have heard only from Halifax fans that the Bulls are offering silly money for players and now our investor will only spend money on the playing squad and a hint at a lottery win
Hmm?

I get that it was a fire hazard and I’m not suggesting that we rebuild the stand like it was. But a roof surely wouldn't cost a massive amount. I mean it’s not like we’re building a brand new stand?

With the increase in steel prices climbing so rapidly the quoted figure of 4.5m in 2008 would be close 10 to 12m in todays prices.

Id say just enjoy it, you never know how a money man will react when it becomes clear SL is a closed shop after this season and you look to be assembling a very good squad for next year that should be more than capable of winning the league. That is the most that any of us clubs below SL are going to be able to ask for until the IMG experiment has run its course.

Imagine the majority of fans would be very happy indeed if we were to win the championship next year. It would make a welcome change from what we’ve seen over the past decade supporting the club

Still waiting for this evidence that Bulls fans don't seem to have heard of.
