Really??
What happened to lawyers? Or did accountants get docked 6 points and relegated into scum position for going into admin?
Either way, great news.

If some of you had been as quick demanding answers from nearer home as you are to come on here and whine and moan things may have been different. Harsh fact of life number 1
We are all sticking with our club and fighting its corner, and will continue to do so. We have the support of the vast majority of decent fans but hey there's freedom of speech for toilets too. BUT we will take no lessons from a self-confessed fair-weather gloryhunter like you who deserted your own club at its hour of need, and has now jumped back on the bandwagon when someone else has sorted out the mess.

Joint leaders, which is why we all employ them in Ilkley to do our dirty work. Except that CC chap, he's even beneath our contempt.

Being a fully paid-up member of the scum of the earth, just thought I'd let you know I led a large party of my fellow scum up the road your mansion and we just stormed the gates and burned it down. We now have a large flag pronouncing "Liberty, Equality, Accountancy" flying above where the estate stables used to be.
Oh, and I peed in your swimming pool.
Now, just need to find that knitting wool...

Don't think the facts fit your statement. If you say the attendance of the Bulls-Giants game less the average attendance of games against Dragons and Broncos gives you a good indication of how many away fans turn up to games you find:-
Hudds fans at Odsal - 2010 2,739, 2011 1,535
Bradford fans at Galpharm - 2010 4,458, 2011 4,270
At £20 per head that's an extra £90k Bradford have contributed to you than you contributed to us. I look forward to your retraction! Given you have been a much more succesful team in those 2 years than we have - not a good indicator is it?

Lol- if you are going to throw facts and figures about -at least check that the numbers are even slightly correct- the away stand at the John smith stadium holds 4054- and full coumns of each side of the stand are not used as they are covered by advertising banners. That away stand has nowhere been near full let alone overflowing.
Bulls have not brought anywhere near the numbers you suggest.
But then we know that those at the bulls make up attendances based on people who are obviously only there in "spirit". Were those spirits there at the John smith stadium too?????
Y
I look forward to your "retraction" priceless.

| Ok - I'll provide my data - source RFL website
2010
at Hudds: v Dragons - 5,296, v London 5,336 - average 5,316, v Bulls 9,774 - difference 4,458
at Bulls: v Dragons - 6,217, v London 7,853 - average 7,053, v Hudds 8,156 - difference 1,103
2011
at Hudds: v Dragons - 5,132, v London 5,220 - average 5,176, v Bulls 9,466 - difference 4,290
at Bulls: v Dragons - 12,670, v London 12,354 - average 12,512, v Hudds 14,047 - difference 1,535
These are official attendances so the people there in 'spirit' are there for all games so a like for like comparison. Do I think there was 12,670 at Odsal for a Dragons game that was on Sky - no, but the club rightly or wrongly changed how they acknowledged a crowd based on people who didn't go to a game but had bought a season ticket. So, it would seem to be a reasonable assesment that the extra over the average crowd for the 2 worst away supported teams in the league is primairily made up of away supporters - these figures, unlike some financial ones presented by my club do not lie! Accept my 1 retraction, my initial posting significantly overstated the number of Hudds fans at Odsal in 2010 - the problem of multi tasking!!!!
