Good question. But do we splash the cash and gamble on our future stability? There are barely any good quality players off contract, so who do we sign?

I was just using the term "world Class" to highlight the point (but people have used that about the type of player we should be after). We've been shopping on a budget. And FWIW if he plays to his potential Walker is a quality player.... but I do wonder how big that [iif [/iis.

| Quote: DILLIGAF "That is the reason. Whether people admit it or not. People can bleat on about "I'm not going because they got rid of Noble" or "I'm not going because McNamara is rubbish", but what it boils down to is "we're not winning now, so I don't like it".
Essentially the "McNamara is rubbish" excuse is just another way of saying "While McNamara is here, we don't win".
The only other small reason is economy and some people simply can't afford it.
Anyone who says other than money or glory though is kidding themselves.
As far as I go, while I can afford it, I go to the games. Regardless of results, regardless of what bloody division we're in, regardless of who's playing for us. I'm a supporter of the club, not just my favourite player who I have a bit of a man-crush on.'"
We have had this debate and we'll have it again probably but I have no intention of getting into it again now. Just because I don't watch them week in week out anymore doesn't mean I'm not a supporter.
The club is in the ter, it's run horrendously and is coached by an absolute moron, and now, to top it all off, he replaces the one bright spark we had left with an over the hill never was with a less than stellar injury and disciplinary record. and then they all sit there and wonder why no one in Bradford wants to watch that circus every other week?
if anyone needs me I'll be at Valley Parade, which despite being 4th tier, minutes away from liquidation a few years ago, over a £million pound in overheads to find every year before they can even think about profit is much better run, and in a much more stable position than the Bulls could dream of. poor form.

| i cant belive how negative people are being before the season has even started .
so what we havent signed any world class players name any super league club who has this time and those with world class players dont want to release them for any amount of money you throww at them.
i for one will support the bulls win or lose and have done for over 20years now
all i can say is the season can not come quick enough COME ON YOU BULLS

Yes! Positivity.
I can’t understand why all the bulls fans moan so much. Other than cas and wigan we beat every team last year.
We need form and confidence. I don’t think the rugby we played was all that bad for large parts of the season. When we were playing with confidence and had a bit of a run we looked pretty decent.
Take away the injuries and players that didn’t look interested (Newton/Burgess for half the season) and replace them with players that have something to prove (Kearney, Sculthorpe and Reardon) and add a classy winger (Grothe Jr, or Chris Walker most likely) and we have a better side than last year IMO.
The only major loss to the club (not just the team) is Glenn Morrison for his coaching and youth building potential. The rest are all replaceable.

We didn't beat Hull KR either, plus if we sign Walker he'll be playing Centre not on the wing. You think we have a better side than last year?
Hall for Morrison
Sculthorpe for Burgess
L'Estrange for Newton
Kearney for Jeffries
Reardon for Tadulala
The only good one out of those for mine is L'Estrange. The others we would be better sticking with. Okay, Morro was a little injury prone but he puts double effort in to every game he plays.

I think Kearney will prove to be a much better player than Jeffries. If Sculthorpe puts any effort in he'll be just as good as Burgess was for the first half of the season. And if Hall plays every game he's beaten Glenn's record for the year. Reardon for Semi isn't a great swap but needs must. And i'd rather you get your boots on and play hooker than bother with Newton anymore Ewen

Sculthorpe will never be as good as Burgess. I'm glad Newton's gone, but Hall definitely has something to prove. As for Reardon, imo it's just another way for the club to save money, but hopefully he can give us something back for the faith the club have put in him, we'll miss Semi next year though.
