| Leeds are the absolute pitts. Despite their massive effort Bradford made some stupid plays in that last 15 minutes and the fact Leeds couldn't overcome them off the back of it is poor as hell. There aren't really words are there.

| I'm very VERY proud of my club for not only winning against a superleague team but also for bucking the trend of low challenge cup crowds. We've missed playing Leeds.

I know he's not been in charge for more than 2 minutes but, he doesn't seem to have the stomach for the fight.
Looks like John Kear (and his side) has brought back some of the magic of the cup !'"
Why what did he say, I didn’t see t.

He got asked at one point how does he get the players back up after this and turn things around and his response was essentially "that's a good question" and not much else.

A massive credit for Bradford, beating SL opposition and a huge crowd as well.
Kear is an absolute legend and if he gets anything like enough brass to spend on players, he will do a great job for your club.
As for Leeds, they need rid of at least half of that side. Something which Furner was sacked for pointing out

| If any Leeds fans had an inkling that Furner had lost the dressing room, they can put that theory to bed.
Congratulations to Bradford, they fully deserved the victory, even if they conspired to throw it away in the last quarter.
Was it a shock result with what's gone before, most definitely.

He didn’t just point it out though, he wanted and expected them out now at a point of the year where other teams aren’t buying or selling and fell out with a lot of people. Yes the current squad isn’t great but Bradford and Kear showed today that you can still achieve even if your players aren’t as good on paper. McDermott took a chunk of these to a GF win because he backed them like Kear backed his lads today. Furner and Sinfield didn’t back and support the squad they had even though they need them this year because transfers in and out where going to be slim given the timing.

Talking of rules, at the back end of the game a Bradford player stole the ball one on one, then the Leeds player stole it back surely that should have wiped the tackle count back to zero, or should it?

| Ref's and interpretation. Has the ref viewed it as the ball hasn't been stolen by the Bradford player? I guess we'll never find out.

Webster definitely took that ball one on one, the ref didn't recognize it and called for the ball to be played by the Leeds player so Webster let him have it back....under protest.

Might have already called held for the tackle before Webster pulled the ball out

nah, he stole it in the act of tackling, it was a straight steal, one Webster has a talent for.
my guess is the ref didn't see it, setting the line for the next play or whatever, and when he did look at the action he thought Webster was holding Handly preventing him from playing the ball when in fact it was Websters ball.
That's all I can guess.
