Why would a RL fan celebrate or indeed hope that another sides support would dwindle? BRADFORD needs all the supporters it can get ATM ..

Yorkshire's 2nd team? Talk about OTT. Maybe when you've won something other than a few league games then your ridiculous comments can be taken seriously.

We won Silverwear last year - Carnegie 9's

Bully, your crowds may be up this year but the overall trend is down. you had a good start to SL, and cashed in on all the Glory hunters from West Yorks, we had a very bad start, and didn,t all the other clubs fans let us know it, we suffered, but we took it.
Our crowds are up, our players quality is up, our finance´s are up, our league position is up, in fact everything is on the way up, and thats been consistant for the last 6 years, so do forgive us if we now hand out a bit of stick, l´m sure like us you will get used to it

if Bulls can beat Leeds and Wigan can beat Saints(both local derbies where form book doesn't count usually) and we have a comfortable win against the Celts then we may well be top of the league after the next round of SL.

Woah, woah, woah, let's not get ahead of ourselves here. Things are going well at the minute but we need to keep our feet on the ground and remember we are only seven games in the season. We only need to think back two seasons to remember how things can turn around after March. Let's concentrate on Saturday for now. We will need another massive effort to progress in the Cup.

And just for a bit of balance, I work with a good few Bulls fans and they all give Giants plenty of credit and have thought we have had a good squad for a few years now. Not much surprise that we have started better this season from the Bulls fans I know.

Who said Huddersfield haven't improved? I think it's great that teams who in recent years have struggled are starting to up their game. I would much rather watch a strong and relatively level SL than seeing my own team drubbing sides week in week out. I just found it a bit OTT to describe Huddersfield as the 2nd best team in Yorkshire. Ok the league table shows the Giants way ahead at this moment in time, but they still have plenty to do to emulate what the Bulls have achieved in recent years.

In sport you are only as good as you last game or present season

Yes in recent years the Bulls have done well, but there was a time when Huddersfield were untouchable.
