I can see the point in starting with a new name. I dont understand the logic about dropping Bulls and reverting back to Northern. It seems like trying to disassociate ourselves from the past 20 years, including the most successful period in our history.

More a tip of the hat to our heritage?

Bradford RL sounds ok too?

all the new stuff but with an old name?

i'm not too fussed about the branding of the club, I'm a Bradford RL fan. Bulls/Northern/a.n. other doesn't hold the sentiment for me.

Originally my thinking was all about the actual name value. Now my thinking is strictly a financial one.

It'll be a lot cheaper to keep the Bulls name. Having a new name means re-branding a lot of things around the stadium, as well as all associated merchandise. It also means getting the name out to those who only has a passing interest to tell them who the club is, whereas they already know who the Bulls are. Try explaining to youngish kids that going to watch Bradford Northern is exactly the same as going to watch Bullman and Bullboy and see what their reaction is.

With the amount of other things that are going to cost money in the forseeable future, I don't see the point of adding something else to that list unless you absolutely have to.

Ironically I was somewhat miffed at the name change from Northern to Bulls at the start of the super league era, however having since got a Bulls tattoo I would much prefer to keep the Bulls branding. What will be will be.

Boar man and Boar boy??? ha ha ha..

They could go with title of this thread. The colours would work

Bradford FC if you want a history hat tip.

Yeah I like that too, as to not copy Hull FC, Just plain old Bradford RLFC, Keep the bull as mascot or

BOAR MAN & BOAR BOY!

Imagine the scenes though: 2018/2019 Million Pound Game: BRADFORD NORTHERN vs. WAKEFIELD TRINITY. Clash of the re-branded historic clubs. A marketers dream

Ah but the FC without the RL is important. It means we finally reverse the great betrayal.
