Now you are making yourself look, like, totally stupid. Everyone knows Adey hearts Justin Bieber. (Adey - he's a teenage pop star to save you googling it).

Curses. Cover blown. Now the buggers will expect me to buy the bloody club out of my small change.

I realised that you were nowhere near as intelligent as you (and Adeybull) think you are when your edvidence that the RFL were dragging their feet was gossip among a few players and Mick Potter. Lightwieght stuff that would be laughed at in a school debate. But you thought it was top notch and that's all that really matters...





I am glad I have not irritated you lil FA. Otherwise we would see one of your trademark posts were you go through someone's pov point by point. Each time desperate to try and gain say them. And if people do not wish to address every one of your dreary comments you seem to think there is some rule (inside your head) that they must do so. Its a tad narcissistic sweetheart.



I must say when I mentined to adeybull your 'masterful' (

)presence I could not have anticipated you would write a line like:







i am told this type of stuff is very popular in works of fiction. Is that your own line or did you borrow it from "Fifty shades of Grey"? I am sure Anabull would be very keen to know the answer.



Now, crack on. Break this post down into sentences and show us how clever you think you are, and if you are not certain ask the players and Mick Potter. HTH

If this thread degenerates further into pompous pi55 taking any further I'll be forced to do some work editing and frankly I don't have the time.



In dshort please stay on topic.

So despite that they have known for 3 weeks and could reasonably have expected this for longer (in fact since the Bulls went into admin in late June), they still have no announced process for deciding this and have admitted as much.



"The RFL said its board will make a decision on how it will determine which competition the Bulls will be playing in by the end of this week, but it is not clear when a final decision will be made."

In fact they already have rules for deciding who's in SL, it's called the licensing criteria and the problem wasn't that those are necessarily wrong it's that the Bull's management failed to stick to them and failed financially. If they wanted to announce a mini licensing based on the existing criteria (which is good enough for every other club in SL) then there is no reason they couldn't have done this immediately after ratifying the Bulls RFL membership.

Please don't Bullseye. I was going to put another a troll on ignore but I'm glad I didn't - I'm really enjoying this one, (s)he really is just too funny for words, just like a kelly in a budgie's cage, it gets knocked down and, oh cripes, it just bounces up again!!

And I DID try to warn it that it was likely to get a good 'Varking (which I was looking forward to)...you all saw that I DID try? Hardly our fault if it would not listen?

So have we concluded just why the RFL are dragging this out so long?

probably because in the background they are checking to see if Fev, Fax or Leigh can put together a credible package to bid for a mini licence.....no point having a process if the 3 teams mentioned can't put together a bid. If they can't an SL clubs want a 14 team league then the Bulls are in, if they can then the RFL have at least gone down the route of appearing to make it look like there is a fair process for teams to gain entry to SL before they then decide that the Bulls have the best bid

I explained earlier that the criteria and the assessment used in 2011 did fail. And that those criteria were based on 3 year cycle and the 'new' club was to be promoted from the championship. Now we have a shorter cycle, the assessment of the Bulls finances was potentially flawed and one of the potential SL clubs is a new company. So the 2011 criteria and assessments may not be applicable. If this is so then a different approach is needed and creating it may take several weeks.



I agree with you that this considerable inconvenience and the need to try and create a new assessment system at short notice is primarily the fault of the old Bulls management. Most unfortunate.

i am sure you do look forward to a good varking Anabull. Do your sources tell you that OK Bulls got all their paperwork etc to the RFL by Sept 4th or did it take a tad longer?

I'd guess theres some truth in this.
