| Does anyone know how the pledges have been counted?
I mean, is it the total number of adult tickets or is it purely the number of people who pledged?
I only ask because if it's the number of pledges received over the ticket types then we're going to have a better than 10681 minimum crowd next year.
Say a 1/3 of pledges are family tickets. That'd put our crowds up towards 13k every home game. Not too shabby.
Well done to the club for having the faith to shoot for something like this to bring the people back. And well done to everyone who pledged and got their friends and family in on it too.
I really have a good feeling about 2011 now.

| family tickets count as 2 pledges. So if 1/3rd of pledges (say 3400) were family tickets and they all had 2 children then thats an extra 6800 on attendances over and above pledge total. Dont think it will be that high a percentage of family tickets or that all will use all 4 places paid for but actual tickets shifted will be significantly over pledge total in terms of actual headcount.

They bet the future on their reading of the support base - no small gamble.
And the gamble paid off. Big-time. They read it correctly. They saw maybe what too few of us saw - that the desire to be part of a successful Bulls team effort had not died. On the contrary, the embers still burned; waiting only on the wind of change to bring them roaring back to life.
And the wind of change roared through Odsal tonight.
This is truly brilliant, uplifting news. Doom-mongers, and those who do not wish us well, hang your heads in shame!
I think something is stirring, something important. We've seen it over the last few weeks. We've seen it in the Sponsor a Player thread. We've seen it in the mood on here and on other forums. We've seen it in the pledges.
Confidence is back. Enthusiasm is back. Self-belief is back.
Whisper it quietly for now guys, but don't now be afraid to speak it, and with growing confidence
Well said.

| This is such good news. However the trolls on the other boards will try to spin it. This is brilliant.
Crowds of 14,000 plus again next year. Fantastic
Come on you Bulls.

The trolls can spin all they want. The fact remains, how many teams in SL who missed out on last years play offs will have home crowds of 10k+ all next season?

| It's only big gates if people turn up! A good start is a must next season now. People won't be bothered about coming if we play like last year.
Once people have paid they will pick the games they attend unless we are competitive

| I pledged, and all three of my children did as well.
Do you inow why? We all have had some great days thanks to the Bulls. So they have been away at Uni and lost touch.
So what? £100 each is nothing, nothing at all when you consider what the Bulls have done for Bradford and for us.

Absolutely. That brought a tear to my eye.

| Fantastic News!
It was a great idea in the first place but I think the powers that be will still be impressed with the reception.
I cannot go to any games but for 60 quid I will be buying one anyway as a way of supporting the club.
Its not been the best of times but with the current management and crowds around the 12k mark I fully believe we can operate in a financially sustainable way and compete for SL crowns once again.

| Terrific effort and well done all round.
I was probably the biggest "doom-monger" under the previous coach (and rightly so too) but this is a new time and I believe we have the right man in the job in order to take this further.
I think it is fair to say that I have not enjoyed being a Bradford fan for a couple of years now but I could have given up on them. Not an option I have to say.
It certainly feels better to be a Bull again for me. Roll on 2011!

Indeed. We'll still be outnumbered by HKR fans.
