Bradford Bulls to close season if liquidation occurs

The Super League have given Bradford Bulls permission to finish the season even if the club fall into liquidation.

The club officially went into administration yesterday and are in danger of going out of business in the next 10 days.

A spokesman from the Rugby Football League said: "We are working with the administrators to help Bradford Bulls out of administration."

The league's allowance of the Bulls to finish the season would avoid the task of having to erase all the points accumulated by the club in this campaign.
