Strange outlook.. did you join your team in celebrating losing a final?

Wakefield at home are hard to beat. That should be enough to beat Bradford.

Interesting to read people suggesting the outcome of the game will decide if the format is a success or not? So if it's a Wakefield win it's a failure and if it's a Bradford win it's a success, is that it?

I think personally the format has worked well. It's kept the sides in the right division for next year, but put the weakest SL side at jeopardy against what is quite obviously the strongest Championship outfit.

I think you literally have to actually

is that what sport and being a supporter of a team is about? taking the rough with the smooth?
that afternoon at headingley when you beat warrington did you not celebrate in case you lost the final?

any reason to celebrate anything supporting your team and if that mean not being relegated then yes, it's not always about winning, or it shouldn't be.

Nope I said before the final that there would be no way i'd attend the civic event if we lost and i didn't

I celebrated my team getting to Wembley for the first time in 29 years. I will not celebrate failure. I will clap my team at the end of a game win or lose but i wont celebrate. And with regards to taking the rough with the smooth, I started supporting HKR in the eighties and have seen more rough than smooth but I will never celebrate the fact that we manage to stay up when imo we should never be in that position.

This match is a great idea in my opinion, championship needed something like this to really add some excitement to the competition. I don't think it will be a massive tragedy if Bradford don't get promoted because at least the chance of promotion is still there next year. Will be seen as a huge success if they do go up though.

Looking forward to this game, pity its not at a neutral venue (Headingley) - I would probably have gone.

The game could go down to who deals with the occasion the best. Bulls should be the least nervous. Nothing to loose and everything to gain. Wakey are the polar opposite but i would back them with home advantage - just.

So 1 8k crowd at Wakefield makes up for the previous 30 rounds of terrible crowds at both Wakefield and a Bradford?

I would have been a lot happier with the format if one side had not been able to spend so much more and so late. Next year the date for new signings needs to be a good month earlier to stop the influx of new bodies for the teams in the bottom four.

Bradford's attendances have been pretty decent all year. 9k against Leigh and 7.5k at their place. When's the last time the championship got those sort of attendances.

How do you define a terrible crowd for Bradford? We've averaged over 5k a game which for a championship club is pretty good. Especially when you consider it's a better average than Salford and Wakefield and is pushing towards Widnes and Huddersfield.
