Bradford Bulls - RedAmberandBlack.net • Toronto and our chances of SL invite

Absolutely this. I'd prefer to stay where we are. We've seen SL in Odsal, it didn't end well and now we have Wood's hand 'officially' on the tiller. He's hardly covered himself in glory when it comes to Stadium dealing has he?
I don't buy into the old boy network either. He wasn't exactly golden boy at the RFL with the SL chairmen was he. Hopefully we'll see Halifax at Dewsbury next year because if it's Leeds Rhinos at Odsal it will be the beginning of the final act, unless Nige has got several million squirrelled away he's not told anyone about.
Which act does playing 6/7 seasons in Dewsbury fall into? When you say I'd prefer to stay where we are there's a suggestion that the club have reached a plateau form where they will further stabilise etc. Isn't a more likely situation is that team's that play in Dewsbury become Dewsbury (no disrespect to our gracious landlords)? Gallagher, Scurr, Doyle will one by one go to lower level SL clubs with a the odd Bentley and even a Bateman thrown in? There will be increasing pressure to jettison the academy and less genuine pressure to get the club back to Bradford. No TV money will exacerbate this.
I don't see an alternative to getting back to Odsal if at all possible and that demands we aim for SL.
