| Poor performance by Bradford matched by a spirited one from Swindon. We were lucky to get the draw TBH.
16-0 down and a sinbin before we bothered to start playing. You're not going to win matches with that sort of performance

absolutely ... had too much to do to win it, a draw we shoud have never been involved with. huge step back, all will be forgotten though if we make the 5 but these games we SHOULD be winning. Swinton though, great character and determination
if it wasnt for duel reg or loans, swinton would be no where near. makes results so lopsided. look at york, they are there on merit and dont have to rely on handouts

28029_1671444168.jpg Don't think i'm biased...
...i'm just very narrow minded!!!!!!!:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_28029.jpg |

| It would have been 2pts had Oakes not been a greedy git and passed inside to Pickersgill.
Totally bombed a decent chance of us getting the win.
Team selection was a strange one again today... back to playing three props and rotating back rowers into front. After two great wins we resort to type playing crappy percentage rugby.
Next couple of weeks could be make or break!!!

| Well with our poor points difference, a drawn isn't that much different to a win.
Really disappointing from us. Schoolboy errors, some awful on 1 on 1 tackles (Pickersgill & Garisdes both being shockers) dumb plays again (Kirk's sin-binning) just so frustrating. Same soft defence in the middle late on! It's becoming a habit.
As I said a point isn't too bad, but really need a win next week as that will put York under pressure. 1000% improvement needed though.
Surprised Wood was left out today.

| we are not big enough for the championship ... we've seen wins with 3 forwards(props) on the bench. from the team sheet today we were looking light

No handouts at Swinton. Just astute management and impressive coaching. Swinton wont go bust as certain teams have in the past few years.

| I just don’t get it - we get a winning side together then start putting 3 hookers in the team? Interchanges were a nightmare today, moving everyone around again. It beggars belief, why can’t we just stick with the same team in their preferred positions. I almost think he has favourites and does whatever is necessary to keep them in the squad - in position or out of position and everyone else has to make way! Saying that I thought Hallas, Kirk and Webster played well!

It's a strange one. My recollection is that Kear has generally favoured a big pack of forwards - 4, sometimes even 5 props in the 17.
Yet we keep reverting back to playing with three props. I know Green and Crossley are injured, but we had Bustin and Wood to call on today.

| In All the time i have been to Bulls home and away matches i have never had any confrontation with the opposing team, until today.
As i was walking up the terrace where i stand every home games past the Swinton supporters a supporter grabbed me and about 3ins form my face said "how far forward was that F£$^ing try, to which i replied "there has been forward passes all game mate don't let it get to you" and continued to walk up the steps.
Close to the top of the steps another supporter stepped in front of me blocking my path and said "you have been embarrassed to day" to which i replied "we weren't the team who were 22 points in front and ended up with a draw and pushed past him.
So to all the Swinton supporters at the match today you have made a lasting impression on me and NOT a good one.
