Or as stated another Bulls fan going into denial mode with his head stuck up his backside.

On insider information it's actually been out there for a few weeks on social media from none other than the Mr Bradford the man himself.

Watch the full 80 minutes with Gledhill and Jimmy on the Championship where they are giving assessments on the clubs and there chances of getting into Super League and their IMG points score.

When it gets to Bradford's efforts and attendances they both have a chuckle at how that's been achieved with a wink wink say no more between them.

Or walk into Odslum with your eyes open and count 'em!

Well, Kai Morgan won't be in the team as he's been recalled by Salford and was included in last night's drubbing at Wigan. Congratulations to Foster for getting into the Team of the Month. Well deserved IMO as I think he's been going really well, even though some on here think otherwise.

A really good example was when we played them at theirs in 2022 and they recorded the crowd as nearly 6k. I posted pictures of all the stands during the game elsewhere and it was pretty obvious that saying there were even 3k people in the ground that day would be far fetched. I reckoned it were closer to 2k at the time. The RFL came out before the season and said they would be doing random audits on crowd figures but clearly they were not doing them in the seasons before and with a 3 year average Bradford know they can drop their crowds this season and still make it over the 3.5k mark needed for the extra points. It stinks really.

Will pay particular attention to him on Sunday,certainly looks the part,but not noticed him do anything out of the ordinary so far..

In that same season, they played Workington at Odsal and a Bulls fan posted a pic of the teams coming out from under the main terracing, with a comment that it was the most sp they'd ever seen it and indeed it looked empty, yet the crowd was given as 2,691. Would be great if someone has the time and patience to look for the pic! Incidentally, the crowds for the 2022 season are thus: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2022_RFL_ ... on_results

No Crookes or Morgan this week so only change I'd make from last week would be to bring McComb or Salty onto the wing allowing halves and fullback to return to starus quo.

Bit of a strange season really for Bradford and they must be disappointed that every coresponding fixture is down on last years attendance.

We need to forget all this rivalry and remember what both Halifax and Bradford have achieved together that had far reaching positive consequences.

For example as the story goes one dark night old Percy Shaw is on his back from Bradford to Halifax and when he gets as far as Queensbury with the fog as thick as pea soup, barely being able to see his hand in front of his face never mind the road ahead he’s in real danger of going over the edge crashing to his death.

Suddenly coming in the other direction his headlights pick up the shining gleam of a pair of cats eyes.

In that moment a brilliant idea forms in his mind that if only all roads had these to guide the way how much safer things would be and on surviving the ordeal the rest of the road studs cats eyes history is there for all to see.

As the late great Ken Dodd once said if the cat had been walking in the opposite direction Percy would have invented the pencil sharpener.

Apparently big nige is doing a sponsored walk from odsal to the shay tomorrow to help raise funds for the club , he was gonna run but the councils figured the damage to the pavements would outweigh the money raised from the run .
