us wire fans are loyal and we've been watching cack for years

A Bradford fan that thinks everyone is against them. Nothing new here either.

If it helps, people were commenting on how low your crowds were before you had even won, so it's nothing to do with the reason you state. You're just defensive.



Ah, so when it's to do with Bradford, the activities are to do with the entire county. But when it's to do with anyone else, it's just their individual towns/cities. I like your fair comparison

There's knack all to do in Bradford. You have to go to Leeds to find something decent to do. Don't forget that St Helens is right next to Liverpool and Wigan next to Manchester also. So there goes your regional comparison.

Bradford found something that worked to get the crowds in, and either that no longer works or they no longer have the ability to make it work anymore. The questions are what they were, how they worked, and why they aren't working anymore.

Still more than were at Saints v Leeds a few weeks ago.

suspect theres some massaging of the announced crowd figures tbh. as stated hullfc crowd was definitely larger than hullkr one and they were announced as virtually the same, Last night was deinitely more than 14.5k. Given capacity of odsal is 24.5k where on earth would another 10k have fitted in

or less than Leeds v Saints last week.

Yes, that's true. But the point remains that Bradford are as well supported at the bottom half of the league as the so-called entertainers at the top of the league.

If we get a roof on the popular side and STILL get 14k against Leeds then I think mocking us is fair game. Until then its a fruitless exercise in comparing crowds at roofed stadiums with the hideous hole we play in.

The fact that we managed to pull in 15k for smaller games back in the day is merely testament to the staggering quality of the marketing going on back then. That marketing budget no longer exists.

But Saints have never averaged around 15k or whatever Bulls did, which means they've [ilost[/i fans.

hmmm...where did that money go?

headingly isnt brilliant but atleast its sheltered and on a cold rainy night standing on the terrace at odsal isnt the most appealing thing to do especially when the games on sky.
but i suppose you need something to moan about

Not at all.

I'm just perplexed that I log on here having got back from the game, and all I see are threads having a go at Bradford's crowds and threads having a go at the officials (to name but two). Nothing about the game itself. Yet when Bradford lose, we get "Bradford are Finished" - type threads. You don't have to be partisan to see a theme there?
