Down But Not Out

Had your previous management teams been as committed as your fans and your team players it might have been a lot different.Best of luck for next season I hope you get straight back up.

Re: Relegated : Sun Jul 20, 2014 5:47 pm  

Well we will be glad to see you all at the shay next season. My wife is a Bulls supporter so at least I can give her a lift to the ground when we play each other !

Thinking the same as a few on here, a few more twists and turns to come yet, least the club will acknowledge what we have known for ages.

Looking forward to next year may take a couple for us to be competitive as there are some strong teams there, but quite a few local derbies should add much needed spice into the games.

Been there done and got the t-shirt twice. It won't seem like it now, but you'll enjoy your spell outside Super League. It's refreshing to see life does exist outside the bubble that is Super League, you'll visit some great clubs steeped in history.

Your club will come back better and stronger. Best of luck.

I sure wouldn't enjoy championship rugby, apart from the top 3 or 4 teams the quality is poor and I hope the season tickets are very cheap or a lot of fans will be lost for good. I predict a Championship team won't be promoted for many years, everything is stacked against it with this new structure; it's just a way of the RFL saying there will be promotion and relegation when there actually won't be. It's all a red herring, anyway all the best.

Re: Relegated : Sun Jul 20, 2014 6:36 pm  

no trolling is required as today is a very sad day for the bradford bulls and i have sympathy with all of your fans that have stood by this club through thick and thin,shame that your bandwagon supporters departed soon after the trophies stopped being the norm though

i only hope that chris caisley can sleep at night because it is without a doubt his ineptitude and mismanagement of this great club that started its downward spiral,and at such a rate that it couldn't get itself back on it's feet despite changes in ownership,where is he now?

as a rhinos fan i want to see you guys back in sl at the earliest possible opportunity and as a viable and vibrant club but you clearly need to go back a step in order that you can rebuild again and regain your place in sl

i look forward to the day when our derby game can again draw 20,000 crowds

Re: Relegated : Sun Jul 20, 2014 6:39 pm  

Look forward to seeing you back in SL soon

We've done it as have Cas, it isn't the end of the world by any means and the championship is a real competitive division and will be more so next season.

Good luck.

Bit of a difference love - Widnes didn't win promotion, were given it. Then despite getting thrashed nearly every week, Vikings were exempt from demotion to the outer reaches of the part time league.
Bradford will have to WIN promotion, and I am sure they will ASAP, they are a massive club.

Re: Relegated : Sun Jul 20, 2014 7:18 pm  

Bradford will be missed by SL fans.
Hope you return asap!

Well it's finally happened and in a strange way it's a relief to have it over and done with. Now we can start to build a squad and find out who is staying. I just want an end to the nightmare of administration, owners who say one things and do another, players leaving a few days before the season starts, points being deducted and so on. Please let Marc Green mean what he says about being in it for the long haul. This is the lowest I've ever seen my beloved club. I started watching in 1978 and saw us win the league a year later. I've seen trophy winning teams under Peter Fox, years of mid table mediocrity and then the amazing Bulls trophy winning years. Now it's time for owners and fans to stand by the club. I can understand the frustration of those fans who pledged money a few years back but now is the time to back the club. I'll be in the queue for a season ticket because I want to be one of those who stayed by the club when it was at it's lowest. It means when we do win the Super League or the Challenge Cup again it will mean more than ever.
