Not a chance, the last thing the RFL want back in SL is Odslum.

Also still far too many skeletons in the closet finance wise. Don’t be surprised to see Bradford go into financial meltdown before the end of the season, you heard it here first.

I was told quite recently that to bring Odslum up to just a RL grade A would cost upwards of 20 million, It’s a developers nightmare, to make it a genuinely modern stadium we are talking nearer 50 million. That kind of money doesn’t exist in RL or Bradford.


It’s not up to the RFL who is in but how each club scores based on the IMG ratings. I am sure the RFL would want London in the top 12 but this would again not be their gift to award.

Are the IMG scores just a recommendation to the RFL? And the RFL can interpret them as they wish? Or am I talking rubbish?

They are not a recommendation.
The scores will decide the league.

However the RFL are auditing the scores not IMG.

Top six 2005 - Trinity.

I can honestly see a straight swap between London and Trinity for this coming season. It’s probably the most likely scenario.

I think Toulouse might be pushing their way in too.

There is no maybe, London are out.
The question is whether Cas do enough to get above Toulouse as right now its pretty close.
We'll be ahead of them. We are not sneaking in. We might be the highest B grade when we get to that stage.

Cas reckon they will be a high 14 circa 15. Can't see where Toulouse will improve on 12.97 points.

Just realised with a 14 point score it puts us above Salford and Huddersfield. Again not sure where those two clubs will secure more points from.

The big question is whether we can and how we can achieve an A grade and how long it may take.
Getting back into SL next season would be great but, we would be forever looking over our shoulders and the benefits of
a Championship GF and 1895 final will be gone.
Somewhere there has to be a solid plan to achieve an A grade.

You don't get an A overnight.

The areas to improve are league position, which will be over a couple of years, fandom which we can help with on social media and attendances and maybe community trust.

Up to this season we were a long way behind on social media.

Bradford could solve their stadium issues by moving to Vallay Parade. They just can't afford it at the moment.

Indeed, an A grade isnt a possibility overnight.
However, we have to find a way to get there or, we will forever be at risk, notwithstanding that, the criteria isn't set in stone.
The worry is that, should we be in the top 12 for next season, this may be with the benefit of a Championship GF and and appearance in the 1895 final and
these cant be replicated if we are in SL but, other clubs mat be able to benefit from these points in future seasons.
