Heh. Yeah, this has never happened. Not ever. Not even once, never mind the every season that Mr VBFG claims. What a tool he must be. He sounds almost dumb enough to be a product of the Kirklees school system. Couldn't be that though, what with him being a Bulls fan and everything.

| This season is sh** or bust for Bradford, they have gambled on offering a very cheap season ticket to avoid a further dramatic slump in attendances, due to the poor on field exploits of recent seasons.
If they fail to impress this season and show signs of massive improvement will they beable to afford such a cheap season ticket next season. Great if it comes off, but dismal fail if it does not.
Whereas we have KD, a great ground and a great team they have not, all they have left is to bang on about how many trophies they have and even then Wadski owned them.

28029_1671444168.jpg Don't think i'm biased...

| I'm quite amused at how many people have taken to slinging mud around here. I think certain posters need to take a look at their own club (and i mean from both sides!) before mocking the inadequacies of the other.
IMO the game on Sunday (yes, i'm actually going to make a comment on the game which I think the thread is actually supposed to be dedicated to ) will be close.
Despite what any of you may think on here, the Bulls are much stronger this year, mainly due to the fact we have a coach who knows what he's doing!!!
Even though the Giants may have been the better side in recent years I'm fairly confident of a Bulls win at the weekend, as long as we can cut the silly penalties and keep our key players on the field rather than on the bench with an ice pack!!!
I doubt any Giants fans will agree but hopefully either way we'll see a good game of rugby!!!

Yeah lets all laugh at the Bulls for being innovative and devising a plan to make more profits and secure some of the biggest crowds in Super League. That is definately something to laugh at.

Who fails to realise that?
That's a great reason for coming up with this initiative isn't it? The club realised something needed to be done to address the falling attendances, they have done, it helps to secure the license and gets more and more fans through the gate and spending ££ on food & merchandise.

Already showed signs of massive improvement. Not hard considering how bad we were last season.

| It was a good idea and it will be interesting to see if a good season for the Bulls will retain a good percentage of these fans for next year when the prices will no doubt creep up a bit. When we did it we retained a fairly good percentage the season after so a good season for the Bulls could well see a similar result.

| the funniest thing on this thread is bulls4champs2010 ( must not s!) suggesting repeatedly that we are also rans, no my friend we are not also rans we are a club that has been nowhere near the top end of the rugby league circles for the best part of 40 years! and have lived in the shadow of leeds bradford,halifax,even dewsbury and hunslet at times! and dreamed of being where they were,top flight etc pulling in big crowds ( obviously only bradford northern fans will be aware of this ever being the case).
right now we are a club on the up and halifax, hunslet and dewsbury fans probably wish they could be where we are now! we are very close to overtaking bradford on the field and last year matched them off the field,this year could again be a close run thing.
so i would hardly call a club that has achieved nothing of note in 40 odd years also rans, i would say that is a club on a massive upturn in fortunes!
as for the game
giants by 10 after a strong battle up front after which our superior backs will punish the bully boys

And you're being churlish.
Bradford had 3 problems in the last 3 years. Falling crowds, a poor team and a poor coach. All 3 problems have been addressed.
Despite the blinkered views of some on here, this is not going to be an easy game for either side. Can't see it being more than 1 or 2 scores in it.

No I wouldn't expect you to praise the club, but making a post laughing at a successful campaign doesn't make any sense.
Out of interest how many more season tickets did you sell when you offered reduced cost tickets?

How did your system work? Did your club just offer cheap season tickets or did they set a target for season ticket sales which had to be reached before the price was set at the lower figure?
