| Well for one it's not just about what I've seen tonight which I can categorically say has been the worst Bradford Bulls performance since that first game back in March 1996 when we beat Castleford by 30-12 in front of over 10,000 supporters at Odsal.
The truth is and however painful it may be, is that this club is dying a slow death. Forget about Mick Potter and what the new coach will offer, the facts are that we have now had two seasons with no play-off finish.
This surely for a club the size of Bradford has to be at the bare minimum requirement with the player personal on board.
The crowds will be down again next season as people who have been following the club since the 50's, 60's and 70's turn their back on the club, meaning even less money coming into the club, to spend on players meaning we'll be getting weaker by the season.
The players are badly underperforming, showing no effort, no pride, no passion or determination whatsoever, they just don't look interested when out on the field as yesterday proved.
To think that myself and around 100 others sat for four hours in baking hot cars, buses, trains in temperatures touching 34 degrees getting to the game, only to be left like a best friend, partner has died at the end.
We have now failed to win in nine weeks, I can't remember Northern going through such a bad patch (I'm only 24 and can remember the 1992 season, but this is different).
I'm actually ashamed to be wearing the the famous red, amber & black right now, such was the embarrassment that I've just seen.
Tonight is the night when my last ounce of confidence in Steve McNamara has gone and he should now do the right thing and just walk away and concentrate on getting England ready for the Four Nations because by hanging on to McNamara until now, too much damage has been done to this once great club and for me it's now irreversible.
We should be letting Paul Medley take over for the rest of the season, which can't come soon enough.
I'm sorry for coming across being all despondent, but this is how I'm feeling and I'm one of the supporters that will travel anywhere to watch the club and I'm really get fed up at the minute with the product we see out on the field.

| Mick-Your team was rubbish and to think we had four of our most influential players in Purdham (capt and 13) Randall(V Capt and Hooker), Temata (10) and Howell (centre and last years top scorer) missing. You could add Williamson (hard working 12) to that.
I think Menzies got 10 in the bin for nothing more than frustration- No one in you team was guiding them-Sykes as Quins and Bronco fans know is not a 6- I thought Worrincy got stuck in obviously, trying to prove himself against the club that cast him aside!
We are happy with the 2 points thats for sure-we are breathing down your necks now!

I woindered if he was so embarrassed by the other 16 blokes on his team that he would do anything to get away from them. Frankly it was embarrasssing to see one of the all time greats being reduced to playing amongst that lot.

1649_1338292262.jpg I have followed the LONDON CLUB since I was in my teensl even though born in St Helens and still live nearby and went to the first game at Fulham, also Big West Ham Supporter:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_1649.jpg |

| It is sad to see the demise of Bradford Bulls, I look back to when my mate Peter Deakin took over the marketing of the club and what a vibrant time but on and off the pitch, but this season we are seeing some strange results week to week. I support the licence system, but does it bring about an attitude that losing means really nothing?
wire-quin brings it home our injury situation, but week in week out only St Helens supporters think they have injuries and use it as an excuse for losing, all teams seem to suffer more injuries than I can remember say 10 years ago, but what Saints fans forget is the squad they have to draw on and also young players who have played the game since they were able to carry a ball.

simpsons/017.jpg Welcome Quins Kitties born 02.04.09 -
Purdo - Determined, loveable with a "can-do" attitude. A born leader.
Louie - Big, white and fluffy. A very noisy prop forward.
Harley- Cute and gorgeous (just like our no.9) Well, I couldn't call her Chad, could I?
Update on Quins Mogs :-
Purdo - deffo leader amongst Mogs. The Capo.
Louie - turned out to be more like Louie Spence than LMS. Re-named Judas.
Harley - Cute but not as gorgeous as our no.9.
Oh well, at least I haven't got a Willy.:simpsons/017.jpg |

| I don't feel sorry for Bradford at all. In fact, I would rather have Fax in SL.
They overspent for years to acheive success and have had their fair share.
So what if they've had 8 losses on the bounce (welcome to our world).
Odslum is unique but the facilities are awful and it has all the atmosphere of a library.
Why should we feel sorry for a club that wanted us kicked out of Superleague? Sorry, but I would rather have Halifax in Superleague.

Black Backgrounds/Zoot.gif Freedom for supporters of the government, only for members of one party - however numerous they may be - is no freedom at all. freedom is always and exclusively for one who thinks differently.

By name ..... by nature, I take it???
As an "iconic rugby league ground" Bogsal is a toilet.
It is really nothing more than a large capacity Championship standard gaff. The sooner they bulldozer the place down the better for all concerned.
