Now will Richard Lamb arrive rising a phoenix to our rescue with Rod Studd?

Tweet from Ross saying 12 point penalty and a new club trying to form ASAP.

Radio Leeds say Liquidation - though not yet official.

Leon Pryce has confirmed it on Twitter:

Sorry for players staff fans - everyone involved @BradfordBullsRL we have been liquidated.For the first time in my life I'm lost for words

Stu Duffy just said all players and staff redundant.

Also heard that RFL prepared to keep place in Championship for a Bradford side in 2017. If a new club can be formed. 12 point penalty. Seems odd though as it would be a "new" club.

Could be .

Would've thought that was unlikely unless someone has been working toward this eventuality.

Otherwise how would anyone form a club in time?

Sounds like the RFL have a plan in place for us to continue in the Championship this year.

Makes me think this was always on the cards with the "potential" new owner(s).

New owner is needed asap as there is a squad full of non-employed professionals, whom are available

I have no idea how liquidation works but the worrying factor is Marc Green being the major creditor.

The last liquidation where Marc Green was also the major creditor he used that position to get his hands on the club.

Now it appears that we are in the same situation again. He now either gets the club back or he tries to get his money back. Either way it looks very grim. If he wants his money back then I don’t think that there will be much of a club left to follow once he’s done.

What's stopping the Chalmer's/Lowe bid that the RFL approved going through now?

there is no longer a club

Marc Green is no longer an issue

This didn't need to happen, administrator rejected two viable bids - all very curious

Mark Green is going to be investigated for missing money, false accounting and gaining money through deception.

How is this the fault of the staff & fans?

Maybe 'new club' was the plan all along

I'm hopeful that we may still have a happy ending.

Not going to see us compete any time soon, but if we reform, we will have absolutely no ties (unless we stay at Odsal) meaning its a clean slate opportunity.

Perhaps I should start a new thread?

Feel strangely calm. But also feel like getting really ed.

Devastated for the players, coaches and support staff who have been caught up in this mess for the last 7 weeks.

New thread, good idea

Would be better for all to just relegate us. We've no board and to try and sign a new squad up with 4 weeks remaining? Also form a board to form the new club. It would just prolong the process.

Indeed. Sounds like .

Talks of only a 12pt deduction for the reformed club. Surely that is the ideal outcome for a liquidated club to hope for?

Now, look at it this way, this might be the only way to get Marc Green out of the way, we have offers, RFL approved, players available out of contract. Could be a plan there somewhere?

Needs to be a club to exist to take that penalty!

New thread. Half the problem with site speed will be the size of this one. Get it locked and I'll do a final tally on the post counts.

See new thread...phoenix from the flames.
