Not our fault, you should have taken the 2 on offer. Player mistake cost you that one.

Also 99 was a debatable decision. Many fans from teams such as Leeds and even Saints have said that it wasn't a knock on. Others have the opinion that it was which fair play to them as it was a difficult decision.

02 was reffed well until the final minute when Joynt dived on the floor just inside the halfway mark. We left him for several seconds, the ref failed to give us a penalty (which it should have been). Henry Paul would have had a very good go (probably kicked the 2) as he kicked them from halfway regularly which would have give us a 20-19 win.

I'm fully aware of the circumstances - dear God I lived through the original JVT thread. That, as does this, proved only that Bullies retain a long but misguided grudge. The 03 CC Final followed straight on from 6 months of ceaseless Bradford whinging and Russell Smith gave you everything you wished for during the course of that 80 minutes.

No, we got penalized quite a bit. The problem lies with your management at the time.

Didn't take the 2. Our defence was on form and you knew it yet you tried to take us on.

Didn't play McGuire even though he got you to the semis, would have made a big difference too but you played Dunemann instead -_-

Deacon would have taken that kick?

My apologize, Deacon would have kicked them as he was in his prime.

He was also the tackler when Joynt tried cheating.

Still should have been a penalty mate. No two ways about that.

Ha ha, that 's a laugh. Russ never gave us anything that wasn't at least a 70/30 in our favour, [iever[/i; we never got a 50/50 that's for sure. I don't think he would have given us the time of day to be honest.

He used to play on the wing for us and he spent his entire refereeing career determined to prove that he wasn't going to give us anything because of it. Mission accomplished, Russ!

2 games into the season & I'm already sick to the back teeth (the only ones that are my own) of Bradford whinging about referees.

Are you Gledhill in disguise?

You are familiar with the 2003 Challenge Cup final? The one which was so scandalous in favour of the Bulls that SCummings never again felt able to let Russell Smith referee a Leeds game?

Thought it was a Leeds fan who started off the whinging? But course, its only Bulls fans who moan...

Correction

Well Ganson was an absolute disgrace on sunday and he gave us absolutely nothing against wigan !!!!

Ooops sorry is that too premature
