The sooner Bradford get their act together the better.
They were one of the games I used to look forward the most.
Allways a good game with a decent away following. The more people watching Rugby League the better as far as Im concerned.

Is this the biggest fall from grace ever?

If they go eleven/twelve/thirteen/x (delete when applicable) years without winning the league then they'll equal the biggest.

Just looking at those names you have compared and its no wonder you are where you are

Why morrison plays same position as puletua, godwin same as roby, wilkin- solomona, long-deacon, graham-lynch etc..they are all our pivotal positions and they are as important to our team as ur players are to urs.

What do want me to do compare deacon to ashurst, lynch to emmitt etc.

Enough with the personal insults.

Thanks Jen

I remember when they signed 5 average players a couple of seasons ago, and people were saying that this will improve them.

When it was completely obvious that they would continue to get worse.

Nero FFS

Better than Nathan McAvoy is suppose.

swap puletua for morrison, wilkin for solomona, roby for godwin, gilmour for crookes, long for deacon, graham for lynch and gidley for nero and you lot would be struggling as well.

Yep, we would. In fact, we'd be losing on a fairly regular basis.

It seems what happened to Hull last season has happened to you this season. It's a shame.

Surely it's the end of the end as they can't really go any further down? They're still a strong club and a bit of success on the field would see the crowds flocking back.

It's ALL Macnamara's fault as he hasn't rebuilt the squad well enough and it's laughable that he's still in the job. The rumours are that he's there only because they can't really fork out for the amounts needed to pay his compensation.

I think it's rubbish to blame the coach.

Bulls are in money trouble and have had to sell the likes of pryce, hape, big les, fielden and have also lost likes of Anderson, big joe and few others.

Macca then has to replace them with no money. He's tried to get the best available at the time like Nero, jeffries, sykes, platt and few others.

At the time these players he brought in seemed good value but they have let him down bad.

I'm sure if the bulls board thought it was all his fault he would have been sacked.

Rubbish, Bradford have not had a decent away following at Saints for 6 years or so, ever since Saints did the 2nd team display at Odsal.

if you want a thought about the Bulls struggling then
Bradford v Saints in round 19 is not being covered by Sky- when was the last time this fixture at either stadium was not televised- must be a decade at least
