Social media seems to have an effect on people which causes them to lose all semblance of politeness. You simply can’t debate with people in that frame of mind and it can take an effort not to end up in an argument. In the end everything is polarised. There is no place for nuance. I think it’s made the world far less tolerant. |

If I was John Kear I'd have been smiling to myself that they failed to raise his sponsorship for the coming season, because I think "John Kear, sponsored by Bradford Bulls Banter" in every news article cheapens his image considerably.
With respect to "good intentioned" folk, well those with good intentions not the ones who get attention are they. The ones who get noticed are the ones who say stuff that people disagree with. People do it all the time online in politics, sport, music etc. It's a form of attention seeking - people are purposefully controversial and purposefully walk the line between what's acceptable and what's not in order to get comments and likes. This transcends into what can be described as an online snake pit. Try for yourself - go on there and post "Chisholm is crap" and see what happens.
I don't think the group serves much of a constructive purpose anymore (nice idea in principle) other than the sponsorship. |

Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.

What’s the possibility of a frozen pitch on Sunday?

| As much as I'm looking forward to the new season, I really, really, really don't want to go and sit in that freezing cold stand for two hours in this weather  |

| Well the first thing we generally have in this sort of weather is the terracing being closed, and spectator access being restricted to the Main Stand.
But that will all be moot if the pitch is frozen solid  |

Im going for Bradford to sneak a close one in a game of two very evenly matched sides. Fev will surprise a few this year and their side is not as bad as some pundits are making out with their predictions.

I think if the pitch is ok there’ll still be the question of ground safety. If it’s on I can see us all being in the main stand.
