Could be a good next 48 hours I hear

Could be interesting........why would he feel the need to say this?

If my wife buys a SL club, it would NEVER lessen my determination and drive to make Salford a great club

He won't let us have nice things

I'm gonna get lynched by Salford fans here, but maybe some will see it as him moving on bradford are a bigger club than Salford so some may see it as him leaving them.

So basically the exact opposite of what he just tweeted.
Can't see that. Say what you like about Marwan, but he had always come across as a man who stands by his convictions to me.

Anyway, I'm not buying a word of this until papers have been signed and Mrs Koukash is on the pitch at Odsal blowing us all a kiss.

I'm just saying what people may read into it, if the owner of my club was looking to buy in theory a larger club I would be abit worried.

What we hope will happen:

Mandy Koudash buys the Bulls, get re-branded the Bradford Mighty Bulls, buy some good players to replace those lost, buy Odsal and fairy tale ending land 8th spot.

What will probably happen:

Richard Lamb buys the Bulls, we don't get any more players, slip into relegation, move to Valley Parade and rebuild in the division below.

Probably agree with that NZ bull but change Richard Lamb to Omar Khan

Anyway hopefully good news on the way from what I hear

Tonight it feels like it's either Christmas Eve or a couple of days after Boxing Day,we should know more tomorrow

Dont think so Broady.

a) He needs a swing of 2 clubs only to push through his Marquee Player desire.
b) He is a Property Developer. Maybe he sees possibilities at Odsal.

So any purchase would be in addition to his Salford club.

He wouldnt front it but he has pals who could.

Could be an exciting time - certainly if he gets involved. 90% of his horses are with Yorkshire Trainers so the distance is no problem & Duckmans 250/1 could be a value bet.

Actually early bath that make a lot of sense, if he gets the lease from the RFL and planning permission there is plenty of room up at odsal for pretty much anything

Latest tweet.

"I had to do mine and the kids tea tonight as my wife is busy finalising her bid to buy Bradford. I hope nothing will stand in her way"

I honestly can't decide if he is on the wind up or not. I seriously hope not, the fans of this club have suffered enough. It kind of seems too good to be true but hopefully we won't have much longer to wait now.

better cover myself with an update;

Stall 1 – Richard Lamb 10-1 (rumors of a fall for our previous fav?)
Stall 2 – BPA (&chancers) 40-1 (out from 25-1)
Stall 3 – BCFC 18-1 (lengthening slightly due to no info or rumors at all - safteynet only?)
Stall 4 – Omar Khan 275-1 (drifting from 200-1)
Stall 5 – Mrs Koukash 25-1 (shock mover in from 250-1, admist twitter tattle tales today)
Stall 6 - Marc Green 9-1 (new fav...just) (Safeguard Security Group - wants his cash back quick?)

[url=http://www.thetelegraphandargus.co.uk/sport/sportbulls/11069126.Bradford_Bulls__Burke_loss_leads_to_prop_shortage/Marc Green... is in the running to take control of the club.[/url

He hasn't lied yet, he was asked if his siblings where going to buy and he said non where.

I have heard good news is on it's way but not definite yet,new players on the way.How many overseas spots have we got,heard they will be filled very soon,let's hope it's not the Nick Zisti standard.

Could I have £10 each way on stalls 4 and 5 please

It's Marwan's missus - just been on Twitter...

The Dr has just tweeted his wife's bid is almost complete

I know it's sad but I love our club so much and this rumour is giving me butterflies in my stomach. *displays his human side*

Well I'll try not get my hopes up, there has been far too many twists to our story for it to be plain sailing.

I don't even want to dare to try to get excited yet.

Roger where do you get your info?

Same here pump haha

Hope we don't sing a Dutch of wage thieves just for the sake of it, we really have a good core of
Ayers and would hate to lose them.

The guy's basically saved Super League but the next club do go down the pan may not be so lucky. We've seen more passion and commitment to RL from this guy in the last 6months than we've seen from the RFL in about 6 years.

I'm still a bit dubious about this tweet, doesn't seem the kind of guy to be on a wind up like this but you never know !!

totally agree. He upsets the old farts. But then we all know farts don't like a breath of fresh air.

Witticombe seems to have some inside knowledge, it's not the first time he has got 'close' to the rumours.

Although, I think we will all wake up in the morning to find that the RFL have decided OK's bid will be the most favorable!
