Given the the accepted bidder for our club is no more, there is a petition available to sign supporting Mandy Koukash. I realise a lot of other clubs fans would rather not sign it but we are desperate and would appreciate any help you can give.

The petition is here: http://www.gopetition.com/petitions/let ... .html#sign

Thanks in advance and please don't shoot the messenger!!

The problem that you have is that its not so long ago that RL fans came out in support of "saving the bulls". Not sure they will do it again. Certainly not in the numbers they did last time.






Mummy duck is now thoroughly depressed. SHE was the one that was famous for losing five in a row........until the 2011 GF!!!!!

I don't think she should be allowed to be involved with Bradford.

I heard an interview with Marwan on BBC Manchester at half time of the Salford game last weekend and he was talking about how Mandy is her own business woman, but he would offer advice to her etc, etc... He then went on to refer to the Bradford bid as "our bid" several times before catching himself and saying 'I don't know why I keep saying "our"'.

Best of luck to the Bulls, I really hope you find someone. As much as I think a healthy Bradford side is important for the sport, I think it is also important that the person that makes that happen isn't a Koukash.

Wire 44 - 6 Widnes
Widnes Score Time: 74 Minutes 9 Seconds

Supported one time.
Now I can't see why a Halifax, Featherstone or Leigh has less right.
I've little sympathy for the club, just the fans and all the previous people who donated for the survival.
Time for the club to learn like Widnes.

I've got real mixed feelings here and wish all the best for the Bulls supporters and employees, but I do wonder whether Mandy is really right and whether we should be allowing husband / wife to own 2 different clubs.
(For me Hetherington's are different as they are RL through and through). But then beggars can't be choosers.

The whole point of the 'franchising' was to get away from 'single large benefactors' and make the clubs 'self sustaining' and now we seem to be going full circle.
Too many single benefactors who pump a lot of money in with no real 'business plan'.

That's what worries me with the likes of Koukash and others. (And I'm not particularly singling out Salford here because there are many others).
I don't decry his general business acumen - but sometimes these guys look differently at sport and heart rules head.

I actually think it's different for the likes of Moran. He's been a lifelong fan, is very successful and I would like to think that he's not bankrolling us. (But am quite prepared to be told I'm wrong).

Leneghan falls into the same category as Moran for me as does Gary Hetherington.

Didn't Mandy introduce Marwen to rugby and she's a Saints fan or am I making that up?






It's been fun.
