They'll probably give Salford, Leigh & Wakey the boot for Bradford, Toronto and Toulouse.

In 10 years time, the game will once again become semi-professional due to lack of exposure, sponsorship, fan disillusionment and unsustainability.
The game is dying at grassroots level. The quality of RL is poor. Any quality now goes to Oz or Union.
And Nigel Wood will keep collecting his salary and Rugby League has never been in better shape!


I hope I never reach your level of bitterness, I really do.

Yep you are absolutely right. Rugby league is dying from the lack of exposure that Halifax not being in Superleague has caused.
The fact Halifax are not in superleague is entirely down to Bradford.

Re: The Big Sell : Mon Jan 16, 2017 6:17 am  
Time to stand up for my fellow fax fan. He isn't saying its bradfords fault that we aren't in super league. Regards your 12 point deduction, any other club would have had to start again on champ 1.

Glad you didn't go down anyway as that's 4 points for fax next season. Plus we get to go to the magnificent :lol: Odsal stadium.

You make out that is the new owners wanted to be in this league, I am totally bemused by this, you tell me of any other sport who would do what the rfl have done leaving them in the same league off -12 points,, it's the rfl that is becoming a laughing stock not bradford

Not been bias or anything like that,but in my mind Bradford bulls have done more for super league than the rfl have, the bulls put the English game on the map as far as the super league era goes

I do wish these muppets from Halifax would take a look round this board before dropping their ordure all over it.

If they did, they'd see that the vast majority on here WANTED TO BE PUT IN CHAMP 1.
Do you all really, really, really think it's our choice to go through a season where we're most likely get whipped every week and finish up being relegated?

..

What an utter plank. Sitting here with no club, no players, no meaningful season ahead except certain relegation, having lost some super players and excellent staff, having been stripped of one of the best and most promising academy setups, I log on to read some twaat who STILL thinks Bradford is being favoured by the RFL.

if we are, then it is a bit like Chernobyl was favoured by the bang.

Did you even read what you put?

Obviously you are so rabidly deluded that there's no point in even trying to talk to you.

Of course we do! We love this type of favouritism and special treatment the RFL grant us. It's easy to see why other fans are so jealous of us
