Stop introducing inconvenient truths into the argument.

Our current position in this division was down to the RFL though, not that it has benefited us in any way at all.

I can't wait to see us transferred into SL [size(the Redeveready plan)[/size and I'll just direct the complainants to the SL club chairman that voted for it.

Fr13daY I too am expecting Fax attendances to rise rapidly soon. In our heyday the chant from the hill dwellers was "Half of you are Halifax!" So by that reckoning about 6k. Seems they've yet to find their way to the Shay. Maybe the 576 has got lost en route?

Brought a tear to my eye yesterday when they broke in to "1/8th of you are Halifax" yesterday.

Must be a hardy 1/8th to still be putting up with it.

Well clearly there's plenty of clubs who either can't or won't go a season without a Bulls payday which is why we were forced to start in this league on -12 with 3 games against HKR and virtually no central funding.

The smart thing to have done would be a fan boycott of away games

We're halfway there. We've stopped going to home games.

and apparently the moon is NOT made of cheese!

Damn, is there nothing the RFL havent damaged!

tomorrow is D day for the infamous "meeting" isn't it??

No they wouldn't nor would they base a decision like this on the size of a clubs support? Even us Fax fans respect you lot sticking with it through thin and thin we can sympathise as we had lots of cr*p for many years culminating in relegation with one win all season in 2003 and nearly getting relegated again in 2004 which would have probably put us into oblivion at a time you were still at your pomp!
BUT no sports club should be favoured purely because of their fan base come on if so in football clubs like Leeds Utd, Sunderland and Aston Villa would be put into the Premier League and Bournemouth, Burnley and Swansea would be put in the Championship when they are all where they are because of what happens on the pitch, which is where it should be decided end of story.
I am sick of hearing that you should be in SL and that Championship clubs rely on your support as without you we would all die - yes I admit clubs like us do benefit from having Bradford Bulls coming to town and it does boost our finances but so did Leigh the last few years they were in our league, Cas did back in time too life goes on!
I do agree though that it will be the clubs who make the decision as the game is run by the SL clubs with the rest being lap dogs the RFL are pretty powerless really and yes many Championship club Chairman might go for the money and vote to keep you up by expanding the Championship.
But its not sport though is it???

We wouldn't be getting relegated because of what was done on the pitch though would We?
We would be getting relegated because of a 12 point deduction before we started.
When we should have been in c1 anyway.
This year has been a total waste of time and very damaging to a new club.
Only because the initial situation was mishandled by the RFL.
That's why we shouldn't get relegated because we should never have been here anyway.
Take off the blue and white tinted glasses..

I think we should not be relegated for one reason only. It would hopefully cause such an uproar that the people at Red Hall would be thrown out. Throughout this whole sorry affair at Bradford we have obtained benefits and also put at unfair disadvantage, none of which has been the result of anything by us poor schmuks that pay the price.

You say that, but even with the 12 points back, we'd have one foot over the edge of the cliff right now.

We would still be a lot closer..
Plus we wouldn't have the demoralizing factor of minus 12..
The siege mentality came early doors but then left and never returned.

Don't worry guys, Sironen is going to make sure we win every game from now on 3.603515625:5
