| Watched the BBC web feature on the Bradford story and noted George's final comments that Wakefield had pulled out of administration but were still struggling. Didn't look like we were struggling to me on Sunday or at any other point this season really. I have criticised some aspects of the organisation at Trinity on here, but generally we look on the up. It's a small point I suppose but it seemed negative and inaccurate to me, the sort of thing that keeps us in the 'lowly Wakefield' bracket in the eyes of some sections of the media

From his blog on BBC
Quote If Bradford do survive, this may prove the best thing to happen since their struggles began. Look at Wakefield after their return from the brink. They are in a much stronger position now and there's a bounce-back at a recently-renovated ground. But a penny for their thoughts - and those of Crusaders, who weren't quite so fortunate last year.'"

'Wakefield just about surviving, albeit still struggling'.... Dunno maybe I'm being a bit sensitive. Just don't think we'll hear that kind of comment 1 yr + Bradford's more than likely survival....

And I still find it remarkable that the RFL intervened in the way that it did originally....I can't think of any precedent in British sport, even world wide sport, for the governing body to launch a rescue deal for a member club in finacial meltdown, though I stand to be corrected. 'A sign that something was not quite right' or something like that at Bradford George says....with Bradford alone or Rugby League in general I would ask?

Barcalona £250 million, state sponsored and endorsed by a King Juan Carlos when they were in the brown sticky stuff, you can only dream about such support ,

"George Riley knows about as much about Rugby League as Vastman. If the man is such a big Leeds fan why wasn't he at Wembley for the CCup Final. Because of this I consider the man to be an utter fraud".
I think that is what you were trying to say. Up your game a bit fatty, I can't keep carrying you like this

| As Millward said on radio Leeds last night when asked about the Bulls "I cant belive its happened in the space of a week when they were one of the high bidders for Ellis and signed another on a 5 year contract when some one opened the books months and months and months ago".As for George Riley well all I can say is Pass.

And now apparently a worthy charity. I've heard of Sport Relief but I'm not sure it's a worthy cause when it's this way round
