I realise half of your fans will know the best places to drink pre/post match before Sundays game, being local to Fax, but for those of you who are genuine residents of Bradford, firstly many commiserations and secondly why not try the following for a good session. The Courtyard, Royal Oak, White Horse. All are near each other and only a five minute walk to The Shay. Enjoy!

The Raging Bull will be sampling a few sherberts before the game. Will be making the most of it as no doubt it will take 20 mins to get served in the ground and they will have run out before half time

I'd recommend staying in the 3 pigeons and not bothering with the match!

I remember fondly when all 20k on the terraces were from Shelf.

Ah yes, we're famous enough to have that "You're not famous anymore" song sung to us loudly by the huge amount of ex-Bulls fans as they now fervently support their 'local' team on that path to super-dooper-league glory.

Which explains the regular 18,000+ attendances at the Shay this season too.

You exaggerate for comic effect. In reality given that Huddersfield and Halifax are both averaging 10k a game, I reckon that means that 8k of Bulls fans went back to watch each of them. And Wakefield's crowds are also pretty healthy so the remaining 2k went there.
