As Bullseye states we've had numerous rumours over the last few years and we have never had the club come out with a denial like they have now. Something must have made them do it but we'll never find out why.

There have been rumours but why would the club say anything about Hape/Vainikolo for Leeds. They have nothing to do with the Bulls. The Noble rumour is all about the Bulls. You always complain that the club never says anything and then you all complain and try to read something else into it when they do. Lose-lose situation. Perhaps they would be better keeping quiet about everything and then you can say they don't tell us what's going on.

He is clearly referring to when they were at Bradford. Hence the reason why he mentioned the term "last few years."

Do keep up Mr Duffy.

Thank you ME it's not rocket science.

So a rumour about two leading Bulls players potentially moving to another club has "nothing to do with the Bulls" but a rumour about Wigan's coach being linked with us is "all about the Bulls"? It looks more to me as if they are comparable stories. They both involve the Bulls in equal measure surely?

It was just the obvious inconsistencies in the club reaction to similar stories that prompted the discussion. I didn't notice any "complaint" anywhere.

Edit: btw Mat, its having a real go at you on there now too, even though you never posted anything on there. Think you upset it on here...maybe something you said? Its clearly frustrated as hell it can't get on here.

getting into a conversation with hims pointless as he always has to have last word, bit like gettin in middle of mystic and fa's ongoing spats (although at least with those two I generally feel they both have best interests of club at heart whereas punisher is just a bitter idiot with an agenda)
let him stew

Although didn't Wigan Bull mention something the other week about an offer from the Wigan board to ours involving taking Nobby back and we knocked em back?

Indeed.

As I understand it, the Wigan board don't want to be seen as sacking yet another coach.

Wigan (allegedly) contacted Bradford re: Noble, with the intention of (if the Bulls accepted) creating the impression Noble had "chosen" to leave.

Again, "as I understand it", Bradford or not, he won't be offered another contract at Wigan.
