The Bulls, as a HKR fan I didn't see that score coming. It now sets you up to make the playoff game or even better. Look forward to your visit to our place.

Jolly decent of you

Hopefully the 80 minute step up means that the Team now have the confidence needed to play the other sides with a we can win attitude.
Its a complete contrast to the Team I saw go down at Shudders Last year as my first game back.
So hopefully while im over here the Bulls will achieve promotion back to SL.

As a Salford fan, I just wanted to pass on my congratulations after your win yesterday. No doubt about it our lads thought it would be an easy afternoon for them after last weekends results but it was to be anything but. The Bradford players wanted it 110% more than any of our lads and were more than deserving for their empathetic victory.

Hopefully the kick up the backside it will give our players is a blessing in disguise.

Very decent comment thank you. Pity some of your supporters were not appreciative of the game of rugby rather than running around with ridiculous flares attempting to incite a response. From where we were stood unfortunately it didn't even get much of a response from so called security staff - step on a yellow line seemed to get the same response as the flare incident - is this something you have to suffer regularly on away trips?

I'll be honest, the flares don't bother me. It's not like those responsible cause danger to others by throwing them around etc - an example of which yesterday, the kid with the flare was just stood there on his own. It only became an issue once the security guards started chasing him. I'm surprised at the general outrage to it all to be honest, I have even seen some reports suggesting the kid was a "scumbag" and that he should be banned for life. I accept flares are not allowed in sporting grounds, but most grounds also ban swearing, it doesn't stop it happening.

That said, following relegation I imagine you have all had some dark days and you deserved yesterday. It must have been a great feeling turning us over in quote emphatic fashion. Those days are few and far between for clubs like ourselves, so enjoy it.

Sadly there is no defence for that kind of behaviour... as stated they are not permitted on sporting grounds so naturally security guards will chase anyone who decides to light one.

With regards to the ''scumbag'' that absolutely is the right description! The first was lit and then he immediately took it towards the home fans in the corner... if that is not trying to provoke a reaction I don't know what is. If one was thrown then harm could be caused to some else and if there are stupid enough to light one in the first place, why wouldn't they be stupid enough to throw one??

But yes other than that it was a great afternoon for us and I enjoyed every second of it and will continue to whilst watching the highlights on repeat.

a very good win for you and one you probably merited it, if it comes that we meet in the million pound game and we lose then I will will gladly come back and congratulate you all in achieving that, be nice to see you back earned in the correct way on the pitch

Re: Great win V Salford : Mon Aug 24, 2015 7:57 pm  

Just wanted to add my congratulations on a great win. Hope you can go all the way and make it back into Super League - even though I'll miss seeing you next season!

That will be good defence to the RFL when they censure your club for the misbehaviour of their fans: No doubt you will pay the fine? It goes along with the other fans who are subject to an RFL enquiry after their disgusting behaviour at Wakefield..or is that different, John?
The man/youth/idiot didn't stay where he was to let off these noxious substances, he ran down the terraces as if to throw it onto the pitch, then he ran back into a group of fans who attempted to protect him from the stewards, then another flare was set off creating enough red smoke to mask a large proportion of the area behind them> I have it on good authority that your club could face serious consequences once the match commissioner puts in his report...so my friend please don't try to defend the indefensible.
