OK, I have posted before but probably 12 - 15 years ago.
With respect to the comment by bullseye about the food and drink ban on Sunday. I don’t do Facebook, twitter etc.
I was one of a party of four season ticket holders who did an about turn on Sunday in utter disgust at, what appeared to me, to be a blatant attempt to squeeze more money out of the supporters – after all that has gone before! What made it worse it was done on the back of supposed safety and security grounds. Especially with recent events. How much did the extra staff cost!
We were told you should have received an email about it, which we hadn’t. Season ticket holders are not likely to look at the “game day itinerary” you just turn up. What the heck was I supposed to do with my flask? They did agree, after discussion, to allow a bottle of water in though. No food, definite. How magnanimous.
I told my colleague at work today what happened and his jaw dropped. He’s a Bradford city supporter. They have no problem with flasks at valley parade! More to the point do they do this at other RL grounds? I would have thought the brolly and stools we were carrying would have been more of a ‘security’ problem, but they didn’t seem concerned.
Look we were not getting on plane. We were going to rugby league game. Just how dangerous is a jam butty. Someone somewhere has thought, I know how we can make some money why don’t we.........There needs to be some straight forward common sense being applied during the blue sky thinking sessions. For goodness sake it’s not rocket science to see what the outcome would be!
Anyway that was the final straw for me. It was becoming more of a chore than a pleasure going up to odsal over the recent years. I really thought we were on the up just before the last admin. Most probably won’t bother for the rest of the season. The missus might go with her friend though. Been going for 20 years. Shame really.
Just counting all season ticket holders each game hides the steady drip drip of leaking support. I seriously hope somebody is counting the actual bodies through the turnstiles and taking note of the trajectory. These are their core supporters.
I made some of these point when I unsubscribed from the emails .As for next year, if there is one? Can’t really see it at this point in time.

Exactly Friday and FA came out of there positively and we have started signing players permanaently and adding to the squad. They can't help the injuries. I'm now of the thinking we have a future especially with hallas signing on. I think there is a lot to look forward to but it's going to be a long road. But I believe the right intent is now there and regardless of division if next season we have a reserve side alongside bastian signing young players super league clubs feel they should be signing we might actually be in the right hands that no one thought we were. And I am starting to lean towards redeready claims that woods and koukash are behind it

"Personal attacks on other posters....." WTF are you on about?
Which poster have I supposedly personally attacked?
If you are suggesting that Mr Chalmers is a poster - then yes I was having a go at him - but what's his poster name so I can make sure I know which one to aim it at.

If you are suggesting I was having a go at Fr1day then read it again.
I didnt have a problem with Fr1day & FA meeting with Chalmers - I thought they had done well getting to speak to the guy.
So which bit is "OTT"? - me complaining that Cha-Lo are suddenly throwing money at buying players when relegation is just around the corner - yes, lets no over-react, they might change their mind about buying players and then the Bulls will end up being relegated! WTF?
I dont believe in the Emperors new clothes - if you want to - thats fine - mass hypnosis is obviously rife.
But dont you "personally attack" this poster just cos you dont agree with what I say - if you dont like it - dont f@cking read it

Whilst I fully support Friday and FA in their mission to HQ, but I doubt they ever really wanted the permanent role of being some kind of go between, or acting as a long term conduit for a flow of information. It would be unfair to expect that from them, and equally importantly, many fans don't come on to msg boards anyway and would never see any of it. Obviously, these people don't know what they're missing and should remedy that omission asap....

The dynamic duo certainly came back with some specifics though, and I hope, passed on the hope that the board would see fans as being an important part of 'the plan' going forward, and, with that in mind, that information, via the media, might perhaps be a little more forthcoming in future. It's obviously good that signings have been made, we'd all echo that but the whole bit about connecting with the fans has been done in a totally cack-handed fashion from the start and so needs extra effort now to overcome the, I was going to say, 'bad feeling', but that is maybe a bit strong so I'll say disappointment and feeling of being disregarded which many fans feel.

Well Chalmers did say that if players (which were better than our current players) became available he would sign them; and with Chisholm, Smith, Hallas and (presumably) Tonga he has done exactly this. Apart from Chisholm (which AC said was a mistake) these players were not available earlier in the season, so we couldn't have had them then.

I'm as disappointed as the rest of you on how this season has turned out, but still AC does seem to be sticking by his statements to FA and we that we reported here. Hell, even the spelling and grammar have improved. Let's see if this proposed size restructure of the academy takes place.

Admittedly the issue of addressing the greater fanbase does seem to be lacking a little still....

Well said Fr13daY (God, that is difficult to type in tho)..Anything that leads to more belief and less need for questions is of benefit in allaying our concerns as we go through uncharted waters.
