... get in touch with Hornets and ask about hoe they went about setting up a Co-op in a matter of weeks, with your levels of support you'd be a shoe-in for promotion to the Championship next season and then it would be all about getting into the frame to try for a new licence in another two years.

Hornets have membership that starts from £20 per year through £60 per year then £10 per month and £ 20 per month with top membership at £500 per year. The main theme is that whatever level you chose you only get ONE vote the extra paid is for discounts in the club shop etc.

If you do this then the club will be yours and yours alone, anyone can be a board member if they put up and get voted in and can also be voted out if they are ineffectual.

Just waiting for another bunch to come in and do the same thing again and leave you with this trouble again.

Pugwash.

I think that if one of the consortium bids doesn't get accepted and therefore Bulls loose SL status, this has to be the best option...people who care about the club keeping its best interests the priority.

Lose, please.

I hope it was a typo but suspect it was an ignoramo.....

Typo, typos happen.

But I know it makes the internet police feel better pulling people up on such mistakes...so well done you.

Typo's - it's an a[size=50b[/sizebreviation?

I think typo is in the dictionary in its own right. Abbreviation certainly is.

In the Oxford English Dictionary (the BIG one), no less.

[pedant modeI think it's terrible, they're even dumming down dictionaries now! It's bad enough that you can't even play scrabble and sneer at people for trying to use things like 'telly', these days. [i:i2rahnmoApparently [/i

down dumbing down?

Every little 'elps...

I'm putting that one down to equipment malfunction. Ever since I got this new computer and keyboard I haven't got used to the fact that the relationship between the time the shift key is depressed and pressing the letter is different. I think I've had to go back and reinstate correct capitalisation at the beginning of most sentences for the last three months. I guess a monkey would have got used to it by now but I'm struggling....Anyway, I clearly missed Scrabble, I hope it didn't stop me getting a triple word score...

While we're at it, another thing I don't like is the way my supposedly English dictionary insists on wanting to put unwanted Zs into words like capitalisation. Definitely not my 'flavor' of the month.

I find this amazing, someone gives you something to consider and all, bar one who is not a Bulls fan, just mess about making fun out one small spelling mistake.

Ah well, have it your own whey. See I've even given you another spelling error to rip the p*** out of.

Pugwash.

Best post I've read in ages lol.

You are totally missing the poiint, though.

We have had many weeks now of all this, and everyone is pretty well numbed to most it all now. In particular, we have had any number of vistors from other clubs - some of them even well-meaning, as you clearly are - telling is what we as supporters should be doing. Most of the advice has been impracticable or inappropriate in the present circumstances for a range of reasons but especially because of the pretty unique circumstances we found ourselves in with shareholders at war and one finally managing to win another to his side and stage a coup. To be honest, having a laugh is one of the few options left to us if we are to stay sane and rational - after all, some of the current protaganists have been having a laugh at our expense for some time now.

I guess the alternative is to get so stressed that you start thinking about helping a few of the bad guys to go down with a bad case of head kicked in. However, I understand the local constabulary does not look upon such acts with a favourable eye, and so maybe they are best avoided.

Incidentally, we already have an established supporters' trust. And we already know what would need to be done and how to do it (and the amount of work involved and the need for people who are both preapared and able to make the hard yards, out of the public eye and long after the high of publicity has gone). Same as we determined some time ago that there was little the fans could do as things stood, and especially in the middle of a crisis. Should the club exit SL and there be the appetite for it still to survive in some form, then IMO it is likely that that would be a route to be followed. But we are not at that stage right now.

And without a wealthy backer, even if the club could survive outside of SL, IMO it could not be at Odsal, and there would not be a cat in Hell's chance of ever getting back into SL. Ever.

Its like we've been pointing out for some time, outside SL nobody is interested in ' financing ' you , which is what makes it so annoying when fans of SL clubs tell us, when you do this that and the other , and get some ' investement ' you will get your chance in SL

It just wont happen, ever

Ilkley dialect.

Its got too many "I"s.
