Great work by the club/Bulls Foundation giving lots of Primary Schools free tickets for the game.

I've never quite understood why they got out of that practice. It gets kids interested, who may want to come back. It gets adults coming because someone has to bring the child, and said adult will likely be paying to get in. Even if they weren't, they also may want to come back. Not to mention said adult and child may fancy something to eat or drink while in the ground (getting the sweetie van stocked up would be a good plan). As long as those people weren't coming anyway and you've just let them in when they would have paid, it's a no lose situation for the club.

First home game I've been to all season, been to a couple of away games, so there's at least 2 more than usual, as one of my sons is coming as well, hopefully other one can manipulate his work schedule to make it three!!!

Gregg McNally says it's great testament to both the #BradfordBulls and #YorkCityKnights that they have only three defeats between them going into the top of the table clash at Odsal Stadium on Sunday. https://t.co/xMwj7yMfpV

Matty Marsh, Josh Johnson & Jordan Walne available for York on Dual Reg, as well as Jack Ormondroyd on loan from Leeds.

Agree entirely - that plan was just about the biggest driver of 'Bullmania' and should never have been ended. Though with the plethora of owners over the last few years I guess it's understandable that lots of babies have been thrown out with the bathwater.

Looks good but I’m not sure im into the “got to get back to super league” club like the journalist. I’m glad to see Chalmers isn’t either.

If we’re not going bust every five minutes and are competing I’m happy. Superleague isn’t the be all and end all. I’d rather be at odsal tomorrow for what looks like being a great turn out and atmosphere in a top of the table clash than watching dross like Widnes or Salford.

In summary I thought we didn't deserve to win and the referee was appalling.

Well, what a game!

York were untouchable in that first 20 mins where everything seemed to go their way. We were simply dreadful. We were lucky to claw back the score considering how poorly we played in the opening 40 mins.

Kear’s half time team talk appeared to work and I felt they were dead on their feet in the last 15 mins but we threw away so many chances to win it. Their final try took so much out of us and left us with too much to do.

I felt we played better with Mini in the halves and with Flanagan at 9. Poor move bringing Flanagan off when we were steamrolling them. Hallas was a bit of a headless chicken.

York won their cup final today. We are still top though so we are still in control of our promotion push.

In the first half they wanted it more, that’s the bit I can’t accept, defence and attack they were quicker, stronger and more enthusiastic.

If only we could share what Flanagan has amongst them. He was completely gassed when they brought him off.

Shocking first half. If they were playing to a gameplan then Kear must take some responsibility because 5 barges at the line and a kick to Ryan is just not good enough. Kirk, sound lad that he is, is just not good enough. Never breaks a tackle and drops more than his fair share of ball. Having said that we could have nicked a point at the death so team spirit was good. Minchella, Green, Flanagan and Ryan our best players today.

What an afternoon. Just like the good old days for atmosphere, although we were outplayed in all areas. Well done York.
Our style of play is becoming very obvious, and creatively we are lacking a spark. Thought Garside and Flanagan were good, George looked totally knackered when he was brought off. Chizzy isn't running the lines like he can, IMO, his one effective run in the 2nd half led to a score, and McNally looks like a shadow of his former.
Still, an exciting afternoon, and the race to the top is still in our hands.....just !
