Bradford Bulls - RedAmberandBlack.net • Not playing at Odsal next year?
So if it's correct that the players have been paid, it doesn't hide the fact we are in trouble again, but seemingly have managed to find a route to meet payroll.
As someone who lost the Close emotional attachment I'd had since 1967 with Debacle of the post liquidation season, I fully get others saying another financial problem will see them gone!!
Thinking about why, it has to be costs associated with Odsal, along with the costs of running a reserve, academy teams and all the costs associated with that. Our crowds are amongst the highest in the league, paying top dollar for the privilege, and I doubt our squad is paid more than most of the other teams around us. Not many of our competitors run academy and reserve teams, maybe we shouldn't to avoid this again, but that sort of feels like we're giving up if the Academy goes.
