As well as potentially showing the U21 games before the main event - how about "Bradford Schools Cup Finals"?

I remember (granted about 15 years ago now) playing on the hallowed turf for Buttershaw against St.Bedes and getting hammered.

I'd just started getting into playing / watching rugby (as I was a footballer) and it helped get me hooked.

There must be a good 4-5 age groups (circa under 12-18's) where a cup competition can be run (maybe by the Bulls) with the finals at Odsal before a game.

Parents of the finalists are sure to come see their kids play - maybe getting a few to come back in the future after getting the bug?

We booked a box in the Coral stand for the Warrington game for my Mums birthday.

The whole day was fantastic and they even got some of the players (who weren't playing!) to come and have their photo taken with my Mum (and Bullboy too).

The only down side was the cost.

I wonder whether the club have considered giving boxes to non corparate parties at a reduced rate.

I appreciate they want to fill the boxes with peolpe paying full money, but I rang a couple of days before and got a box and it never looks full up there.

So maybe they could say: 2 days prior to a game the remaining boxes will be sold off at a discounted rate.

You would probably have to limit it to once per season or something to stop people doing it all the time.

It would certainly get potential new fans through the gates. Of our party of 10, 6 don't go to games and 2 had never been to a rugby game before.

£350 + VAT + beer

It probably made it worse because I thought it was £350 "all in"

Hi Guys
Im new to this message board malarky so be gentle with me!!
If big les's final game for us is at home against london, can we please be allowed to say goodbye to him properly and not have him just slope off as others have done...
Cheers
Mama Bear

By the way did anyone notice that the PA sound was turned down in the main stand on Sunday? Were you able to hold a conversation without yelling? Also has anyone had a look at these? My soundcard has packed up so can't listen, are they any good, sounds like a good idea: www.bradfordbulls.co.uk/bb_exper ... ienceid=92

1Can the club or anybody tell me why the blinds go on in the bottom part of the touchdown when something happens on the pitch
On sunday they closed them when ther under21 game was on
Also if you go up to beat the rush for a pint at before ht you cant look out and see whats happening

2The dvd that was been shown in the bars before the game Any chance of the club putting it out on dvd for the fans to buy Old northern games was loveing it

3What happend to the mini screen at the bottom of the coral stand

That big Bulls banner could do with another wash. It's getting a bit whiffy again. A few people were holding their noses when it went past yesterday!

I couldn't hear any of the announcements throughout the game because the sound volume was far too low this time in the popular side.

Can something be done about the catering it's not the best and there is no real choice and can we have the donought van back in it's rightfull place please.

Why does the official site never say what time the gates open any more. With the times changing quite a lot at the moment and the u21's moving about it's not easy to work out.
I like to get in early to watch the game on the telly in the big tent.
There are always more people there when it's advertised properly so please let us know what time this starts. Thanks.

The sound system is a total embarrasment to the Club. I hope Peter Hood was suitably cringed by it when he used it for the farewell to Les, enough I hope to kick @rs* and get it sorted. Apologies to Ryan in advance if it's his butt that cops it!

Why no halal food sold in the stadium?

I was very hungry Friday but not able to find any food that I could eat. No surprise that my community is not represented at Odsal as it is in the city.

Baked spud with cheese/beans/tuna?

That said a decent curry stall in the ground would be very popular I reckon.

Great avatar BTW.

being serious... can we have a ladies night??? ideally before september
