Bradford v Greece - October 8th : Thu Aug 25, 2022 11:47 am  

Apparently we are giving the Greek team a warmup before the world cup. Can I immediately suggest we all take some of our old plates to the game and hurl them about the place as a mark of respect.

When I first read about this game, I had to read it twice to make sure I wasn't tripping.
Such a random fixture. What will our squad even look like at the start of October? I dread to think.

Yeah. By that time the exodus of 16 players may well have happened. I'm not sure seeing our young lads getting smashed by grizzled NRL players would be a pretty sight. We could chant "Smash plates not players".

Very strange fixture. Assume it'll be a squad of whoever is leftover from 2022 and some of the academy/reserve players. When do contracts run out, is it at the end of October?

Could be a chance to kidnap a few NRL players and press gang them into the first team - we could release them in October 2023 when we've been promoted.

Why Greece want to play us is anyone's guess. Playing a group of kids and what's left over of the first team who will be well into off season mode by then is a recipe for disaster.

Perhaps someone in the Greece set up remembers us being good (20 years ago) and thought it would be a prestige game in front of 20,000 people in the midst of Bullmania

I hope they aren't disappointed with what they get lol

Might actually go to this. Something a little different.
