So the bulls stick rooted to the foot of the table, 2 points down, with hudds next up. Things not looking too good, can the bulls avoid the drop? Some very tough teams to play.
Would be hilarious to see them relegated (financially stable of course, before any bulls fans start beefing)

The bulls don't [ineed[/i the above. They are more then capable of living within their means as a humble championship 1/2 club, providing the occasional player for the super league and a place for youngsters from the super league clubs to gain experience.

No.

Why would that be funny? The club may go bust. Sad that bulls fans have resorted to wishing financial troubles upon other super league clubs.

Ah, so because you added in "but financially secure so Bulls fans don't start beefing" that's makes the situation different does it?
If you can't take sledging, you shouldn't start it with others

Yeah, it's fair game.
I'm not really sure why you've picked out huddersfield either, I support a rival club.

Oh look, here comes Mr Make Up A Fact.
What hilarious joke are you going to come up with then? Why not your incredibly humorous comments about the 80's concert the Bulls put on. You know the comments I mean, right? The ones everyone ignores as they're cripplingly unfunny yet you persist in repeating them like some even more unfunny Peter Kay?
Or better yet, why not one of your funny bucket pictures?
Honestly, you're nearly as funny as Michael McIntyre. Laugh? Laugh? I almost started.

The 80's concerts that Mr Moore reckons where a key area of finance for the club before it became apparent that the 2013 version lost £100,000?
Not sure what passes for funny in Bradford at present, but that's hardly a side splitter

When, I think, a Saints supporter makes a few comments about the Bulls' dreadful finances you go off on one about Ken Davy pulling out of the Giants.
Many supporters value Davy, Moran, Koukash, Lenegan, McManus, Caddick, Hughes etc putting money into the game. I would guess most Bulls fans would be delighted if one of the very rich Bradfordians would commit millions to the Bulls.
Sadly there are posters like you who think it would be funny if a guy who has backed a club for 16+ years were to pull out. Grow up

Yes, you're right. Making comments about how funny and how much joy you'd feel at another club's misfortune is childish. Just a shame your comments from your high horse don't seem to stretch to include Bradford, which is what my comment was in response to.

Belinda Carlisle and Rick Astley are no mere "punchlines"! They are in fact proof positive that Mr Moore was so far out of his depth back when he was going to "buy" the club from OK, that it's no mystery as to why the RFL are now standing their ground. He claimed the summer concerts were part of a trio of "business strategies" that would get the club back to where they belong. Unless he meant Championship 1, then that's not really working out to well for him or the club, is it?
Your trying to switch attention to another club, this time, Huddersfield Giants and their benefactor is nothing new. You tried it back then with London......this is the problem with the Bradford Bills.....too much time worrying about other clubs rather than sorting themselves out.

Making stuff again, are we? I never tried to switch attention to London. What I actually did was say that YOU were the one shouting about how bad Bradford were so that no one would look at the mess London were and still are. I went on to say that you didn't need to bother as no one actually cares about London.
As for the summer concert, yes it may have lost money, but the idea behind the staging of it isn't a bad one. Odsal is used barely a dozen or so times a year, but the club have to pay out rent and maintain it all year round. It's a huge drain on resources, so why the hell not try and get more use out of it? Last year was a perfect example as midway through the season the Bulls didn't have a home game for the best part of 2 months, so that's a huge gap in income especially when you consider (and I know it's hard for you to consider any facts that you've not yourself made up) that the Bulls were already down on received monies that year after giving up half their Sky just to be allowed to remain in the league.

So why don't you grow up and explain why it would be funny for a guy who has backed his local club for 16+ years to pull out. Why Is that beneficial to RL? Why would the supporter of a club in perpetual financial crisis - who have shafted local creditors for millions - wish other clubs to be such an embarrassment?
there is a lot of sympathy for the many decent Bulls supporters, staff, players and suppliers. For the owners and RFL numpties there is none. Likewise nothing but contempt for the Bulls fans who make excuses for the screw ups, castigated many of their fellow supporters with a different pov and wish other clubs would lose their backers. Pitiful.

Ok, so why is it funny if the Bulls are relegated? That was what my comments were in relation to. I guess it's hard to see both sides of an argument from way up there on your pedestal.
You answer your own points in regards Bradford and how their relegation is funny first and maybe get down off that high horse before you hurt yourself.
