He's wrong, filling you with false hope. Three bids remain.

Whether it's yo or him that is right we should hear within 48 hrs. Either way you can both be right.
It's like Shrodingers Rugby club. We have both a club and no club at the same time and which one it will be we won't know till Big Nige opens the box...

FWIW I reckon KCNBABT is telling the truth and Harry the Dog is a no-mates wind up merchant

Just to clarify.I havant come on here to play with anybodys emotions or fall out with anyone.Think we are all past that.However the information I have from a credible source is that the deal is finalised and will be brought to everyones attention within the next 48 hours.The bid in question is local.Lets just wait and see.Good night.

If the deal is done it don't take 48 hours to get a photo of RFL top dogs shaking hands with the new owner at odsal, so why the hold up on an announcement if all sorted and due diligence done?

I must say for a one off kit that is probably the best design Bradford have had since the 2007 kit (pretty much the same) if we get new owners I would be looking at making Ravensport our official kit supplier with belters like that!!

Would be a full kit W@nker in that..

Bespoke socks were impossible due to the short notice.

I did think this. But I would guess if there is a new owner, he might want to sign a coach and also the remaining players before making an announcement.

Good stuff thought I was right from there. I don't doubt it's a ravensport brainchild and a very very nice kit! How are cross looking for next season? John rourke going round again? (Needs to play 9 not 13 for me) what about Gilmour?

Rourky's training the house down. He seems to have been around forever but he's only 31. He usually starts at 9 and sees the game out at 13.
Gilly had a knee injury when he signed on last year which got worse due to him playing on it, so we only got 5 games out of him. He's no good to go round again unfortunately.
