As for the "racist comment", Im surprised it even warranted a moderator response. :snowflakeemoji:'"
If you don't see the racist connotations in the post about Omar Khan then I think that suggests more about you than it does me.

What I think is that not a lot of people on here like what nestegg is saying, obviously if it turns out to be true its a disaster for Bradford fans, so for that reason I think some people will pick apart his posts looking for an in, a way to get at them in some vain hope that it might stop them posting or even get them banned. Somebody chose the racist card and a couple of others jumped on the bandwaggon, I'd say most posters didn't seem to have a problem with the comment including the moderators(I say that as the comment is still there as far as I know). I wonder what the next card is that someone will play?

The Mods issued a warning and edited the post.
Don’t left facts get in the way of you want to be an apologist for bigotry though.

Correct on both accounts Greg.
As for the latter, there is no need for us to apologise for something that we have not done.

There is an element of us fearing what nestegg is saying being true, but the dislike and dismay comes from the approach, patronising language and general disregard for Bradford fans at a difficult time.

Nice try.
As you know sadly it will achieve nothing.

| Waiting for Nestegg to claim that the General Election has been called specifically to take the eye of the local MP off the ball up at Odsal. Another thing to blame on Brexit.

Could you kindly upload a link to the related article as looking on love rugby website we don't see any reference to Horsfall being a 'likely' ground for the Bulls in Bradford. As things stand we understand there are no plans for the Bulls to go to Horsfall.

Quote nesteggThe council is at the limit of its state aid, meaning no funding for any improvements or works to be carried out. Andrew Chalmers is believed to have cancelled a number of meetings surrounding the future of the ground prior to his sale of the club, which was held up by his alleged failure to file accounts. It appears the best chance for the Bulls to return to Bradford will be playing at an improved Horsfall Stadium, home of Bradford Park Avenue.
'"
Even more worrying for me is the nugget about Chalmers cancelling meetings about the future of the ground - whilst all the while peddling the story that he was, in fact, in deep negotiations with the Council and others about his 'boutique stadium'.
So was that just a load of hogwash, designed to distract people?

You're right Ewwenorfolk - do whatever you can. I do not trust what has and what is going on; so thank you, from me.

TBH, if I was selling a business, I would cancel meetings about where the business would be based as once it's sold it's no longer my concern and the new owners might want to put their own ideas into those meetings

| Quote bulls2487="bulls2487"All players and staff were paid today suppose its another positive, should see a reduced wage bill next month due to the highest earners off the wage bill also.'"
But who has in reality paid our players and staff? A RFL whistleblower has informed us that it was not our illustrious new shareholders. Don't ask for our source as we will not reveal their name. Nevertheless, it goes without saying that the news as peddled out by the club's PR puppets re wages being paid would not appear to be as overwhelmingly postive as Wood & Sawyer would want you to believe. It all appears to be little more than the usual Bulls' smoke and mirrors; as it has sadly been for the past 8 years.
It would be helpful if a RL journalist would ask Nigel Wood (or Sawyer) who has in fact paid the Bulls' staff and player wages over each of the past 4-5 months; a sum of up to ÂŁ70K per month - a monthly outlay which is reducing due to the recent scandalous firesale of valued and much loved players.
We still hope that Wood and Sawyer and their ever changing gaggle of shareholders will be successful in stabilising our once great club, but we doubt they will. Sawyer's attempts at raising the club's public profile have to to date been hopeless.
Given the ongoing farce that is Bradford Bulls 2017 Limited (BB17), along with the disturbing news re some ÂŁ150K - ÂŁ200K of allegedly misappropriated funds that will be coming out within the next month or so, may we again recommend to our fellow fans NOT to buy a season ticket for 2020 until you can be 100% sure that our club will still be in existence at the commencement of the actual Championship season in February.
As for the shareholders, confusion reigns re the role at the club being played by Kathryn Harrison and Chris Brereton; are you in, or out? Re the former what right does she have to be calling nestegg creditors looking to cut a murky deal if Kath may not not even be a BB17 shareholder, or an appointed adviser? Why can't Nigel or Mark do their own (allegedly) dirty work?
We now return to the RFL Board's recent review of a detailed chronology of decisions relating to both the purchase of Odsal, and the three administrations at our club since 2011.
May we suggest that a truly independent and detailed inquiry be carried out; not (as was the case last week) a superficial, partial, internal RFL review which in all likelihood will have taken a few hours (if that!) to complete.
May we also suggest that the RFL appoint a firm of forensic accountants to investigate/audit the outgoing payments by the RFL in regard to the Bradford Bulls over the past 6 months or so in order to establish what payments have in fact been made to the club both prior to and post the recent apparent takeover. Such outgoings should include payments to current and former shareholders of Bradford Bulls 2017 Limited (including Nigel Wood) and any employees and self employed persons directly affiliated with the club. In order to be transparent we ask that the results of the above audit be disclosed to the press and the public in full, and without any form of redaction.
Our trip to Iceland is now almost over, and the main core of nesteggers are landing back in Blighty tomorrow.

I did it ages ago. I have no doubt "they" are still completely ruining the forum with the standard "we know something but we can't tell you for legal reasons" sheeite though. It's duller than listening to Kevin Sinfield talk.
