I can't imagine any Bulls fans actually thinking that this is an exciting new start.

It's just some more men who want to screw the long-suffering Bulls fans out of more money.

I'm pretty sick of it all too TBH, but will wait to see what/if John Kear can produce before next season starts before deciding to liberate my Sunday afternoons completely.

Me too. I've seen most of the academy games last season, there's quality there. And this is a really aggressive start to getting rid of debt. If we stabilise, this could be our last firesale.

My only concern is if ST sales collapse completely, then it doesn't really matter how much we cut expenditure, we're done.

Basically this is it. It's either total collapse, club dies and we all go home (over the next 3months). Or we stabilise and we don't have to do this again. There's no middle ground. I don't know the odds, but I'll give it a go.

Did they say at the fan's forum what the bl**dy h**l is the reason for the massive debt year upon year, owners upon owners? Odsal? Boardroom fishtank? The tealady over ordering the pg tips?

Meanwhile, Doncaster have just tweeted they've signed Josh Rickett

It's all so sad but not unexpected after what was said at the forum about selling players. It was always going to be our best players only SL clubs could afford to buy them, championship clubs dont have the money to pay fees. So only players who might make it in SL would go. At least the new owners are being honourable in trying to settle debts and save us from administration and points deduction. I for one will not kneejerk react and wait to see what develops over the next few months before giving in. I've followed them since 1962 and will find it hard to walk away. If memory serves me right York were deeper in the sh*t 3 seasons ago and not in a position to start a new season a few weeks before kick off, but they did and now look at them.

I know people keep saying York were in a worse position 3 years ago, or Fev last year, or Leigh last year. But no-one says such-and-such a club were in a worse position 2 years ago and 3 years ago and 5 years ago. We seem to constantly have the heart ripped out of the club every effing year.

Those clubs weren't helped by the RFL

Urgh. What’s the point anymore?

If they end up on dual reg at Dewsbury then I’m done. Clear reason why you shouldn’t be able to invest in 2 clubs.

Are we into single figures yet for the squad next season?
