4 official bids. So Lamb/Irvine is one. David Thorne the other. Who do we reckon the other 2 are.

Lowe and chalmers?
Koukash from left field?

4 Bids apparently but personally feel you need to go with a money man ( Wasps) especially if he pays off HMRC.

Supporters Board? Mmmm - Best Board of Directors is FOUR - with 2 Dead and 1 dying.

RFL Official Statement wrote:

The RFL can confirm that it will assess four official bids to create a new professional Rugby League Club in Bradford.

The RFL set out a clear process last week and subsequently received twelve requests for further information regarding the possibility of setting up a new professional club in the city.

The four bids that have been submitted will remain confidential and will now be thoroughly assessed by the RFL Executive which aims to make a recommendation to the RFL Board as soon as possible.

Bradford is a great city with a rich Rugby League heritage and deserves a professional club that supporters can be proud of.

They sound optimistic though, don't they?!

Re: Phoenix from the flames? : Mon Jan 09, 2017 5:47 pm  

As thoroughly assessed as when they approved our last couple of owners? Or more assessed than that?

To be fair to them, I don't think they had much leverage when Green went for it. And the Omar thing feels like decades ago.

As a. Real left field candidate, didn't Lawn say he was considering throwing his hat in the ring. Might be more attractive now with no debt and no money to shell out to buy the club, just need enough working capital.
