I'm seriously feeling quite emotional now. Great moments.

Thanks for that.
In truth, the list is endess, and these memories of past days and days yet to come are one of the reasons why we watch the game. All the more so for those with more woll on their backs, who can remember having good times despite the years being barren and the team being poor-to-crap.

| I don't remember the year ( 2002 or 2003 maybe ) but Leon scoring a try in the last minute at headingley to win the game is probably the most crazy i've ever gone in any rugby match including finals.
Was that the same match as Reardon smashing Danny Mc into touch.

I remember that. For some reason I was on the eastern terrace and got plenty of banter/abuse from the Leeds fans throughout that game. When Leon scored in the last minute it went a bit quiet and when I looked around everyone had gone

| My first Bradford game which was v Leeds at Headingley. Yorkshire Cup preliminary round 1990 - took my brother as well and we had a right laugh rubbing Paul Harkins nose in it (with help from all the other Northern faithful that day). Remember someone squaring up to Henderson Gill and someone said 'Hit him with your thighs Gilly!'
Other favourite memory
Then Paul Dixon tackling Graham Steadman seconds after him catching a bomb which Steadman spun out of in a daze to be finished off by Karl Fairbank - then he got counted out

| Bulls getting the Super League Trophy after thrashing PSG 68-0 on a balmy late summer evening.
Withers' Drop Goal v Leeds when 24,000 were packed into Odsal.
Beating Leeds at Headingley in 1998 felt pretty good.

| [list[*Battering Leeds 36-6 at Odsal in one of Deryck's first games, the 92-93 season.
[/*
[*Same year, at Wilderspool, Roy giving a ridiculous overdummy at acting half then diving over untouched as a result.
[/*
[*Any time in the early nineties where a good kick to touch, especially when a try was required, resulted in chants of 'heave' with some level of serious expectation and some degree of success.
[/*
[*That move we used a couple of times from the scrum at VP where Joe would appear to be coming on a rumble and then would stop and give a Lockyer-style miss-pass to the flank.
[/*
[*Winning away at second placed Widnes the week before Burnden Park. Unbelievable result that kept us up. Think Brett Iti played but could be wrong.
[/*
[*Coming back to beat Saints at VP in 2001, which apparently didn't count because we kicked too many goals.
[/*
[*Signing Newlove.
[/*
[*Stuffing Fev in Newlove's one and only match back there (appearances as sandboy apart) after Currier got sent off for taking his head off. Excellent if slightly edgy atmosphere.[/*[/list
