Bradford gave us Hockney, Leeds gave us Moyles.:731.jpg



Quote: Raab Himself "--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I would have thought the ultimate bulls moment would have been the Challenge cup semi final in 1996.

It wasn't just a game, it was symbolic. It marked a new era, the bulls era if you will. They had finally made it. This was followed up a year later with a title win, 3 years later CC win then a year after that the famous 5 grand final heaven began.

Nearly a decade later the 2005 grand final marking the end of this wonderful period of success. Possibly the most glorious in Bradford's history.

Now however, marks a time of change and financial uncertainty.'"

Quote: Snake Eater "Your treble was a very fine line.

in 06 it was total domination for saints, it was unanimous, thrashings in both finals, finishing 8 points clear etc.

In 03 the bulls were involved in about 3 games with leeds that really could have gone either way. If they had gone leeds way leeds owuld have won the cc and fnished top.

The bulsl won the treble in 03, they lost the same amount of games as they did in 02 when they won nothing.

Just pointing out what a fine line there was between success and failure for the bulls in 03, there was no such line for saints in 06.'"


Perhaps, but Skints cheated the cap. icon_biggrin.gif

No crap sherlock.

My next post down

Quote: Richard_bull "It's exactly the same as, had things gone your way in games against leeds last year, you would not have lost a single game to leeds and would have finished 2nd and probably made the grand final

One of my favourite moments as a Wigan fan came while we were playing you lot and Renouf broke free and put Radlinski in for a try with 6 seconds left on the clock to make the score 18 - 19, leaving Farrell with a presure kick to make it 20 - 19. I'd have broke the world high-jumping record when that kick went over.

[sizeOh, and the playoffs last year[/size

Quote: Snake Eater "snip'"

In the end, it's clearly a subjective thing. However, if you offered most fans the choice of trebles attained by wins over either Leeds and Wigan or Huddersfield and Hull, you know what the answer would be.

Quote: Richard_delariv "yeah i remember that and remember them handing out free super league milk.

also remember warrington making some big signings at the start of the season and everyone thinking it would be their year...

including Martin Dermott who didn't play in another super league game'"


and its been our year every year since....and dont forget it....!!! icon_eek.gif

My first ever game was Warrington V Bradford Northern in 1979....

I'd played half decent in the school team and was given a "schools complimentary ticket" to the match so i thought why not have look...

Wires won 10 points to 8 and to say it was a blood n guts game was an understatment four players left the field after various altercations.

two left on Stretchers (and You didnt leave on Stretchers unless you were out cold in them days)and two were red carded and Ian Van Bellen for Northern just looked the most scariest man I'd ever seen...!!!!

I walked home behind two sets of blokes who were arguing like good uns With the Wires fans saying "its like this every time you lot come down"

I remember thinking great when do we play em again

After that I was hooked.......

It did always seem to be like that against Wire though, '79 was a bit before my time but even up until early Superleague games between the sides always seemed to feature more than their fair share of niggle, and were often all the better for it.

Can't have that nowadays though, got to think of the children.

Stuart Spruce and Steve McNamara putting Mark Forster into the cameraman, ECW-style. Cameraman carted away unaware of what day of the week it was.
