It was against Saints. We lost 42-3. Played them a few days later and we lost 42-0! Probably late 60's. Any idea how I can find out please?

You could look in Nigel Williams' "Bradford Northern - The History". Alternatively, I could do it for you and tell you that the first match was 22 August 1970, and the second was 19 October (also 1970).

Wow - thank you so much for that! I really appreciate it. Would have been 9 years old. Makes me feel old icon_eek.gif

The date of your first game was August 22nd 1970 at home, and the second Saints game, away, was October 19th.

I think Saints were pretty awesome in that era...

MDF, since I don't have that book would you indulge me and look up my first match.

It was against Oldham (at Odsal) and it was something like 1968 or 1969 when they first started having Sunday Rugby. It sticks in my mind that it was 27-7 to Northern. It was definitely on a Sunday because my Dad worked Saturdays and the advent of Sunday Rugby was the opportunity for him to take me...

Sorry, can't find a Sunday match v. Oldham at Odsal in the late 60's with anything even close to that score. Are you sure it was Oldham? We defeated them 28-10 on Wednesday 23 August 1967, and 25-9 on Wednesday 27 August 1969.

Saints have always been "pretty awesome", well in my lifetime anyway, so it doesn't really narrow it down very much. eusa_shifty.gif

As far as I can see on a quick look in Nigel's book there were only 3 Sunday home wins from the first Sunday game in 1967 up to the end of the 1969/70 season and these were 24th November 1968 a 15-10 home win against Bramley, February 22nd 1970 a 14-4 win against Barrow and 15th March 1970 a 10-9 win against Hull.

I'm also looking for a first date at Odsal. I'm an average to above average looking bloke, GSOH, fun outlook on life and sporty yet sensitive at the same time. My main interests are extreme sports, watching rugby, playing musical instuments, painting and talking about my feelings.

Looking for good looking 21 to 35 year old with GSOH. Here's a picture of me PM me if you are interested:
