Love rugby says hosfalls is the likely ground if we come back to Bradford

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.

Bit OT, has anyone seen the pic Jamie Peacock put up of ex Bulls players having a "wake" for Big Sam's career. God we've seen some players in the RAB.

TBH, Hosfall would be easier to develop than Odsal

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.

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?

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.

My MP has responded to me to advise they will discuss the need for an independent inquiry with the sports minister and also press the RFL directly.

I dont hold out much hope but every little helps!

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
