It sounds like we are heading to Dewsbury!

If we move out of Bradford I think it will be the end for us how many will go to dewsbury for a home game I think we will still be at odsal next season but I can understand why we need to leave

Reading Bull mania's post, there seems to be a fair bit of expecting the RFL to agree to things. Fair enough in normal circumstances but aren't we about to 'do the dirty' and leave them in a bit of a financial mess? Why would our chairman think would they facilitate this?

I've not voted as my preference would be to remain at Odsal, but obviously this doesn't appear to be viable and I certainly wouldn't suggest staying under any cost. So it would be Dewsbury for me; it ticks all the boxes for a short term move, other than not being in Bradford. Let's hope it doesn't come to that.

None of the options charmers presents are good ones IMO. Can understand why VP isn’t viable cost wise. Not sure why he talks about both dewsbury and horsfall as short term options. A new option isn’t going to magically appear once we move to either. IMO any move is going to permanent and longish term(10yrs +). I’d reluctantly go to an upgraded horsfall but dewsbury is a total nonstarter as far as myself and group I go with is concerned and would end our attending live games and buying tickets.

Maybe because that's still a better outcome for them than if we moved out altogether?

How would people feel if the Bulls put on coach travel from Odsal to Dewsbury each home match? Would you still not bother getting a season ticket?

I'd like Chalmers to elaborate more on this particular part of his statement. What is this broader plan to develop our own facilities? Just wishful thinking or is there a bit more to this?

If I am being totally selfish, Dewsbury fits the bill. It almost equidistant from where I currently live as Odsal.



Would I go regularly? I'm not sure. Every time one of these 'situations' occur (admin, liquidation etc) I feel that much less invested in the club. This would be another one of those things that would cause me to be less invested - since there isn't even the familiarity with the ground (having been going for nigh on fifty years).

Reading this and other forums, and social media, this appears to be a common theme. Many of us trudge along out of some sense of duty / loyalty / habit. It won't take that much for many of us to stop going altogether, or at least much less often.

Tbh the distance is only one issue for me. Others are fact it’s outside Bradford and the extra time commitment needed for travel plus effectively having all home games as ‘away’ games. Just not something I’m prepared to do - personal choice. Wonder if chalmers has allowed for a significant drop in attendances when he’s costed dewsbury option.

Did you stop going when we were at VP? Just curious.
