As a Leigh fan, I would definitely welcome that as the 'Million Pound game'!

(From the perspective of Wakefield being in it, that is. I would also be delighted to see Bradford having recovered sufficiently to be in that game.)

You'll have been relegated long before then

In all seriousness I think Leigh will stay in SL now. Can't see you getting relegated unless you majorly implode. Would love to see an academy system there and a few youngsters becoming key players for Leigh!

It'll be interesting to see for sure. I originally hadn't planned on going to this when it was announced but I damn well will be now, its almost unreal to think I might be able to watch some rugby involving Bradford rather than just worry about its very existence!

To be fair if was not such a distance I would probamade the journey as a nuteral and hope a few others will also

I wouldn't have gone to this had the season gone on as normal. I would have killed to be there now though but unfortunately I have a gig in Sheffield to attend Will be there at any future friendlies though (Keighley?).

There are a group of players who would like to represent Bradford. Think that is what he means. Whether they are trying to secure employment or not. Think a few might hang on because they are almost gauranteed game time...

Me too BB2011. Hopefully, that will be on the cards if we can establish some SL security.

One of the current tragedies at Odsal, is the major work that has gone into developing a number of academy 'graduates. I really hope that doesn't go to waste, or the vultures don't descend to pick over the talent. Meanwhile, everything is tightly crossed for you guys to emerge from the other side of this nightmare, with a firm base to build on for the future. Good luck.

There aren't any journalists working in Rugby League. There are precious few working in politics, economics and foreign affairs. There are NONE in Rugby League.
