"Sorry guys we did toy with the idea of dragging this out until 1st April but couldn't keep out faces straight. Truth is no-ones daft enough so we're gonna fill odsal with water and create a deep fishing lake...I'm sure you'll find another club in time..."

Has there been any official confirmation from the RFL or any buyers that there WILL be an announcement today?

Or is this another round of rumours picked up by journos who propagate it as fact?

If the players and coach haven't been told I can't imagine its going to happen today. If it does, that is a pretty poor show.

How on earth would Chalmers pass a fit and proper persons test ?. What exactly is that test. Is it who can stand on one leg the longest. I mean seriously....

Another line from the 'T&A expects...' drawer

RFL statement is due later this evening on Bradford. Winning consortium has been told they've got the club but RFL won't name winning party (Aaron Bower on twitter) Rohan asking when?

Can't imagine why even the RFL would want to go on playing silly buggers for even longer? What is there to gain? Other than more players leaving and an even weaker team for the season.
