Totally agree, I always looked forward to games against the Bulls. I also think that SL is still financially disadvantaged by their absence from the top flight, they had a huge following home and away.

they never had home which was a huge issue money wise. at least half the crowd were on freebies. they handed them out like confetti

Leeds fans used to kick this myth around a lot back in the day to prove some point about plastic fans. But it wasn't true then and it's still not true now - they certainly did more of it than Leeds did but it wasn't anywhere near half, or even a quarter.

I'd ask around. I worked in bradford at the time. nobody I worked with paid. freebies were ten a penny

My opinion ,

Hated Bulls when they were in Super League

Hate it now they are not !

often available in pubs near ground

yep. ten a penny

Not when they were playing at Headingley? As I recall our home games against the Bulls were usually our biggest crowds of the season.

Bulls are where they are thru their own mismanagement no point feeling sorry for them.

I feel more sorry for the companies that they never paid.

If SL misses a club like that its a sorry state of affairs

Been watching some of the games from the golden decade and I honestly don't think there's been a better 2nd rower to play for Leeds than Ali Lauiti'iti

I watched the Watersplash yesterday. Laugh a minute.
