How much finance would be need to finance a new club in CC1?

I'm sure that it can't be that much looking at some of the new teams for next year and their potential supporter bases. Surely a supporter based organisation could raise the funds to get this in motion for next year. Do we really want a club run by CC again?

We wont get 10,000 people watching us next year in CC1 it will be around 3,000-5,000.

It doesn't need 10,000 most CC1 clubs exist on crowds of about 500, so with 3,000 supporters we would be the richest club in the league by a mile. Doncaster exist on crowds of six or seven hundred, they are third in the league and have made a profit for the past two years.

I gues a lot of people will agree with your sentiements - but starting from scratch even in the lower reaches is a massive job and you would need a core of paid staff to be funded.



Still one way or another we are going to know this week if something from the existing set up will survive

What's that in the sky?





Oh, it's a massive pie.

True, hopefully if we manage to get to CC1 or Championship we can keep a lot of fans. I for one will be there.

I guess Bull Man & Bull boy have been made reduntant too?

As we also made the groundsman redundant I understand they are now in charge of keeping the grass short. Unsure yet as to how the lines will be marked though. Still awaiting confirmation

It seems as part of the plan something of the existing set-up will be rescued by CC and if this is the case Bradford certainly could not support two pro-teams. My worry is that if even CC's plan founders there will be no time left to set up any replacement in time for next season and that the fan base will wither away or move on to other clubs so the numbers above could be even lower.

to be honest im not sure i could stomach what has happened if caisley comes back in as anticipated - it stinks.



I think if caisley comes back now a lot of fans will be annoyed and may walk on that basis alone regardless of division or players left.

If HE comes back then the whole thing stinks. Bullbuilder or some other fans organisation needs to mobilse the masses. If Bradford wants a rugby league club it will have one, if the fans don't care enough then it won't.

Well, join Bullbuilder and change the constitution to permit this, or start some other fans organisation, then get enough support, then put in place a team of people with the knowledge, experience, free time and millions of £ needed, and mobilise them, then. I'm sick of people saying X should do this, or Y should do that.
