Agree with the op's sentiment. No one has a problem with noble. Think people were more upset with the timing, although it was all just rumours.

I agree with Bulliac, but I would just love to challenge the people who verbally abused his son. It's bad enough to abuse someone who is willing to work for nowt without having a go at his family. Seriously bad form.

Well put Bulliac.

I am in full agreement with the OP. I hope that Brian remembers the warm words of thanks and support that many fans posted on this very forum when he left for Wigan.

Once a Bull, always a Bull

And a Steampig!

spot on

Anyone know Nobby/speak to him.

Point him towards this thread - please.

Poor lad didn't look himself the other day on SKY and who can blame him.

I remember speaking to him yonks ago when his/my lad were playing against each other at Stanningly. Even though he was HUGE in RL/Bulls at the time he was, as ever, approachable, interested and just ya' normal bloke/Dad. My lad was made up for ages afterward over how he'd taken the time to have a natter about lads footie.

I concur in every respect. I have the utmost admiration for Brian, both as a coach and a person. He has been a true servant to our club and I would welcome him back with open arms.

Agree 100% with the op's comments!

I know Noble used to read the Wigan board when he coached us, so I reckon there's a fair chance he'll get the OP's message.

Fully agree and would like to add my name to this thread

Same here. Agree with everything that has been said, im sure he used to work with my dad back in the day (Shaun Chamberlain). Nobby is a top coach and a top Bradford lad.
