I didn't say it did (FWIW, the 2011 crowd was up on the 2010 one vs quins). I presume you were having that discusion with someone else, I was just pointing out that a +10k crowd at Odsal for a fixture with London and no away fans is not just just because of our situation, as you implied.

I'm with you on that. "Can our franchise continue" is different to "can we have a franchise in June".

Its always different mate.

Any arrangement would also need HMRC to go along with it, as majority creditor.

Yes, I just wondered how that process worked. Will BG be having ongoing discussions with them or does he have to wait until the deal's done? Can HMRC respond quickly in these situations? And what happens during the void whilst they're making their mind up and we have matches to play?

1.) Seen as I was quoting Ferocious Aardvark, yes it would seem that I was having a discussion with someone else.

2.) I disagree. Hence my first post.

What's the issue with getting an advance on TV monies due next week? It's coming from SKY ultimately, not the RFL or other clubs as some morons seem to be suggesting.

People were looking forward to commiserating with our demise like one big Rugby League family.

1) but you then quoted my fact which had no opinion and asked a question.

2) you're wrong, hence my fact. If a 10k crowd vs London was just because of our situation, we wouldn't have had a 12k+ last year vs London when we had no such situation and were playing worse.

Anyway, this is pointless and going off topic, so lets leave it.

That may not be represented by the volume of posts on here, but most rugby league fans (and all the ones I know personally) want the Bulls to continue and play an important role in Super League.

Re: Latest state of play posts only : Tue Jul 10, 2012 8:40 pm  

Ok, just to summarise, if we survive and stay in super league some fans at other clubs wont like us. Oh well, s#*t happens!!!

Yes it is off topic.

1.) You quoted me, am I not allowed a right to reply? That's how forums work!

2.) Look at my original post/question.
