Nope no shame, in fact have Fax brought anything to the game in the last 20 years?

We'll be able to ask the same of the Bulls in a couple of years time. Iconic status doesn't last long when paid for with money you don't have

They are bringing the game into disrepute and this despite the RFL bailing them out by buying their ground something which set a very dangerous precedent which people seem to have conveniently forgotten about, it was wrong as a sports governing body should never get involved in owning its member clubs grounds, have they done the same for York or Sheffield???
One thing that is annoying me is that they seem to be blatantly ignoring their plight and bringing in new players even from Oz at what expense???

Go on then?

Either way it's a damn sight less than the club you're criticising for bringing 'shame' on the game. You clearly still carry a chip on your shoulder concerning the Bulls.

Chips on't shoulder? Nah, I don't think so. We'll be getting invited over to functions at your/RFL'S place to raise money for the bulls junior teams next....oh, hang on a minute.

Not honouring 45 10 year season tivkets they sold at a grand a piece 5 years through. Increasing match day entry by 2.00.

Whilst I have to pay per game, as I can't afford an annual ticket, our prices for next season look reasonable when compared to others.

Fax early bird £220-£187
Fax Full Price £250-£195
Leigh £280-£250
Giants £99-£119
Rams £190-£175
Bulls £313-£218
Rhinos £336-£216

I wondered if there is any way that Bulls can justify their prices next year....no wonder their support is falling off! The Giants look desperate !!

Err, it can be justified by saying "Bradford Bulls are a full time team and the cost of the tickets reflects that." Given the fact that your prices aren't too far off the cost of the ground admission price for a Bradford season ticket, and yet your team is part-time, surely the question should be how can Fax justify that?

The Giants have always been desperate for fans, it's a running thing with them that they don't pull in a lot of fans even when things are going well on the pitch. Plus they've got a money guy who can underwrite the cheap tickets so why shouldn't they push to get their crowds up if they can afford it?

I think there has to be a minimum price set if you are to secure funds to compete and I feel our pricing is acceptable.

Highest adult price at Hull KR is £265, and if you wanted to you could have 25% off that under their elevation scheme. Makes Bradford the most expensive in the league, by some way.

London Broncos charge £150 "silver" which is standard package. Their Gold upgrade at£250 gives you a hospitality package, shirt and cup final ticket. Which, if you were one of their fans looks a super deal.

There were half a dozen clubs in the high court that day, including one that's in Superleague.

Notice how we're the one the BBC reports on?

This is more about the national media not giving a nats frig about Halifax than it is about our VAT bill.

Do Halifax even need to be VAT registered?
