supported them through the bad times, remember the 80's?? the early years of super league? well we are still here, i doubt many bradford or indeed leeds or saints fans would stick with the club through bad times like we have.. see how bradford have "lost" 6,000 fans since they became crap?

So what are these 'new' supporters at the Giants? Will they hang about when the Giants begin to slip down the table again? Whether that be this year.. or in 5 years time.

That's sport mate. Every club has a fickle fans - those can claim they don't, are in denial. |

they are probably all the glory hunting fickle people of huddersfield who shunned their hometown club in search of gold who are feeling guilty  |

Tbf most of the people on here -me included- are the ones who do stick thorough thick and thin, so this is the wrong place to be spouting that sort of tripe. |

i think its fair to say that, apart from you guys on here, your crowds were only there for the 'fun of bullmania' when a trip to Odsal meant a family day out with loads of entertainment for the kids and families and the side show of a Rugby match which the Bulls more than likely won by blowing their opponents away.
The kids could play on the bouncy castle, the mum's could sing and boogie to the music and the dad's could watch the game.
Bullmania has gone and so have the families and i guess the fun of a day out at the Rugby too.
Now i would guess that the people who attend Odsal are the people who were there before the Bulls,Robbie Paul,Vainikolo,Bouncy castles etc - the people who will always be there and they are the true Rugby League fans of Bradford who have never really cared too much for the gimmicks and Razzmatazz but were quite happy for these 8-9000 new fans to come along too.
Maybe i'm wrong and its the long term fans who have had enough i dont know but whoever they are they will be back when the Bulls rise again !!
Keep the Faith guys !

On field success or the promise of on field success is what fundmentally brings the crowds in as seen at Huddersfield at the moment and the opposite at Bradford. You will always get that. Well success and cheap season tickets.

You could always offer to ground share with Wakefield, although 12,000 capacity stadium is a little ambitious for you at the present rate of decline.
