Bulls have put out a vague statement about discussions with RFL about Odsal. It does not really say anything, but I guess Bradford hope it means a lot.

It strikes me that given the links the Bradford management have with the RFL then they ought to be the favourites in the betting.  (Do BetFred have a book, BTW?).  Which club ought to be favourites is a different matter.

Are you suggesting 'Insider leanings' Princey?

Yes.  But ultimately the decision will be down to opinion. 

Unfortunately, the RFL and SL have no plan no road map for the future. Even if it wad a skeleton plan, we could all see where we might be going.

But we are hamstrung by lack of investment. For instance, and its only a for instance (others can give another), over a set period we could aim for 2 teams in France, 1 in London, 1 in Wales.  And we could hope for 11 existing SL clubs.    Why keep it secret - what ever the plan is.  Just have a plan... but it needs investment.

The criteria are such that it shouldn't be ie finance - whats in the bank, are you profitable and whats the owner willing and able to tip in. Ground - facilities, capacity, appearance on sky etc etc

We are hamstrung by lack of vision, and lack of French TV deal that includes £'s

Ha I actually worked with Harry Gration and was impressed with his promotion of a couple of Welsh matches. I'll never forget his poster campaign in Cardiff and two posters in particular ''Rugby League - not a game for flankers'' and the other featuring a picture of Jonathan Davies ''Come and see a real dragon fly''.

Harry Gration supports Knights Super League bid

Very interesting.Thanks for Sharing.

These Wigan owners do seem to upset genuine rugby league fans.

Mark Campbell has been right on the  money for the last 2 years.

It's going to be a Yorkshire club ain't it...

     No reserves,but resilience,persistence and determination are omnipotent.
