Rugby league: Bradford owner Omar Khan has condemned his club’s Super League rivals for pocketing the television income forfeited by the Bulls.
The Bulls agreed to forgo this year’s Sky TV revenue as part of the deal to enable them to stay in the Super League on a 12-month provisional licence, after coming out of administration towards the end of last season.
Khan said he was disappointed with the actions of the other 13 clubs in voting to divide Bradford’s allocation of around £1 million.
Khan called the clubs “selfish,” adding: “It doesn’t make sense to me. If that money had gone to make the game bigger it wouldn’t have bothered me.
“The conclusion I’ve come to is: ‘You take care of yourself.’ We’re just a club on its own. Every club is on its own, but it shouldn’t be. They should be working together to grow the game.”
