There could well be, but there is only one of the interested parties, controlling the administrator!
I said a month ago that if Caisley was not in charge of a debt free Bulls in the next 6 weeks i would be very surprised and i dont see that changing. He is building himself up to be the hero while also getting rid of anybody he doesnt want, at no cost to himself. I am that convinced of this that i would say paying on the gate, for me, will make absolutely no difference whatsoever to the outcome.
Would have been interesting if Mick Potter had agreed to work for nothing. May have cost the new company a few quid to get shot then.

| Does this mean Armageddon is to be be averted at the last minute ?
Based on the musings of the media / press & the nihilistic predictions from many Bradford fans the club was to be no more, at best a championship club in future years.
The hysteria created by this sorry affair has been unrivalled, however, anyone of sound mind could see the fait accompli.
Yeah thank the lord, Bradford are back from the brink, well done the Rugby League family .

| I will not pay a penny extra till i find out if the club will be saved and if so by whom. Why should i pay even more just to line the pockets of the administrator? I'd rather cough up to fund a new team in CC1 rather than give money to a Caisley run club in SL.

| Nobby volunteered to come in and coach for free this weekend against Larndon, but fans "allegedly" don't want him, so he might not bother...

Its been said on here I dont think it's Noble thats the problem just what it might lead to! plus I think what Mick Potter said had a bearing on Brian Noble's decision, so far! He could change his mind..

Double edged sword mate, just imagine a new investor(not CC) for the sake of this is waiting untill sunday to see if the fans are willing to back the team, say 8000 turn up and pay, he'll maybe reckon its worth a shot.
Or 2000 turn up and he walks away.
I understand you're view and can't blame you tbh, but if it was me i would turn out.

Nothing suprises me with Agar. IMO it would be a STRANGE signing to bring in another hooker when we are short in other areas, and particularly when the lack of game time attributed to those already contracted, is the form of Paul Aiton and his ability to play 60+ mins

| Sir Mick Potter is back, presume it's for the players benefit mainly... But still what a guy. Just hope we can get a buyer and hold onto him.

| Fair play to him - deserves massive respect and it can only be good for the team too.
I'm sure Newco will give Potter the job.

| Well done Mr. Potter to rise above it. He was shown no respect but has gained plenty from this.
Just glad I put Bradford to beat London on the forecast. KC says no-one's allowed to edit.

What a mug more like.
He's clearly showing loyalty to the fans and players, for which Mr Guilfoyle and the RFL should count themselves very luck indeed.

| Perhaps he put two and two together and due to the way BG has treat the playing staff and coaching and back office staff, maybe he thought that him (BG) begging noble to come and coach for free was further tacking, so he's boxed clever and pulled the rug out from under the Caisley fan club.
Good on him, top bloke etc etc.

Maybe he just had sod all else to do, waiting for the flight back home, and decided to stick with the lads he'd coached and help them with their futures? Maybe Noble, having spent 30+ years at the club, offered to help in a moment of need?
Who knows. All sad, really, but we've been there, done that, and didn't buy the t-shirt (thank God).
