Or the ones with the dog waiting.

So what I do is tease it my putting the tip of the paper through and then when it jumps up to bite it, I pull it back and the dog hits the door.

I think going up to the front door with a golf club in your hand is a bit excessive though Mick!

Current pledge total: 3509

Wonder if this includes any pledges from this afternoon's event? If it doesn't, I think that's a reasonable total. If it [idoes[/i include them, then it's a bit worrying. To be hoped that the mailshot kicks in soon and then that the leafleting will also start to have an effect.

You always post it just before me!

A suggestion for increasing pledge numbers:

1) Invite irate dog owners to each match
2) Set up a dog track around the periphery and have Mr Gledhill run (walk fast) past the stalls waving pledge leaflets
3) Release the dogs
4) Run a book on which part of his anatomy they bite first (he is not allowed to bet)

If you put this on the Leeds forum you will do a brisk trade



This pledge thingy has certaily got people talking about Bradford but you will have to do the business on the pitch if you want real converts.

Another 120 leaflets delivered tonight. I'm feeling really positive after meeting some of the players in town this aft. They all in good spirits and there seemed to be a lot of interest.

This is interesting for those who didn't get an email confirming their pledge. (I didn't and I know some others on here didn't either.)

3509 is good but we can do better.

Come on people, make the pledge.

I have made two, have you?

I've just got an email from the RFL titled "Bulls launch pledge 10000" which contains the pledge image and the phone, web and text details. Good to see it's going through those channels as well as directly from the club.

Yep. The criticism of the Super League Website IMO was fair, as they were advertising the Huddersfield scheme, but not ours (which is even better than theirs).

However the e-mail that's just gone out is to that website's mailing list (which I think is the same as the RFL one). And that's gotta be a fairly decent mailing list, so credit to them for doing that. Should certainly help with the prospect of getting fans from other clubs to pledge so they can come and watch games when their side isn't playing.

Any guesses on what the total will be when the counter updates today then?
After the squad's appearance in town yesterday I'm hoping for at least 4000.
