I thought Keighley fans were better than this......
It is one thing trolling about them getting hammered, finishing bottom of their table or calling Ods*l a dump. It is completely another to troll when the very future of their club is in grave danger.
It shows a lack of class.
I hope they don't tar us all with the same brush.

Agree with Stealth, I cringed when I read that thread... I would like to think any disillusioned Bradford fans could find a home becoming a Keighley fan, but the last thing I want to do is disrespect their fans. I respect their fan base as they are mostly loyal and passionate about their club, much like I try to be for Keighley. My contempt for their historic and current management is a separate issue and of course even shared by some Bradford fans themselves.

Sorry 'Soupy', but how can you sayas they are mostly loyal and passionate about their club'"
when they start to leave the ground when Northern are losing - check numerous games if you don't believe me. Was it St Helens or Wigan a few years back, one Saturday evening, when they were losing by 30+ and, before half-time they were streaming for the gates! They're well-known for it!
There used to be a time in Cougarland (pre-Super League) when Northern shirts were few and far between. Now, you can't move for them! Mostly ex-Cougars I suspect - 'fairweather fans', 'glory-hunters' or whatever they're called. Those are the ones that need to be criticised - as well as the other SL clubs and the RFL!
There are some 'loyal' fans, but they're mainly Bradfordians, unlike those that Northern STOLE form the likes of Batley, Dewsbury, Halifax and Keighley with the advent of Super League!
So, tell me why, when a company is struggling financially, what do they do? They approach their shareholders for funding via a 'Rights Issue'. So why haven't Northern done this? Why ask everyone but their shareholders for additional funding? All that the sad, misguided fans are doing, with the help of former players, is supporting the current Board without gaining any influence at all! 'Give us your money and we'll continue to waste it'!

Fair point, I retract that phrase 666, instead my limited encounters with fans suggest they are passionate fans, some loyal. I haven't met all 7k+ so I suppose I would rather give them the benefit of the doubt as a group. Yes I'm sure there are turncoats amongst them and some that cannot bare to watch a whole game through. I've only watched them a handful of times so clearly my exposure has been very limited but never saw a proportionally larger group of their fans leaving early than any other set of fans I have seen.
In terms of the club management, I think the management have acted poorly and the fans that donate to the cause are potentially very foolishly fuelling further bad management.
