We need Bradford to be promoted to the Championship at the end of this season. It is a powerful club in terms of fan base. It has a long, rich history. It has won much silverware. It has had a glittering array of stars in their playing ranks. The club gave coach Brian Noble great fame and coach Steven McNamara his start in life.

Bradford is one of four clubs in existence who we desperately need to be promoted to Super League (the other three being Toronto, Toulouse and London).


In terms of fan base are you for real when you are for the likes of London, Toulouse and Toronto who bring no fans what so ever

JESUS WEPT :WALL: HOW MANY TIMES?????
£20 a ticket and £15 on beer and merchandise.....so an away fan is worth £35. At best, 1,000 is the average away support split across 11 rounds and I am being really generous here, so Toronto, replacing say Wakefield will cost a SL club £35,000.
The minimum turnover of a SL club is £4,000,000 so Toronto instead of Widnes is worth less than 1% of a SL clubs turnover.

There are many valid reasons for and against expansion into America, but "AWAY FANS" isn't one of them. :BEAT:

David Argyle, like David Hughes at London does nothing other than write cheques. Hughes drops 2 million a year as Argyle will have to do from next year onwards if they make SL........The problem isn't Hughes, the Problem is what the club are allowed to do with that 2,000,000........

Have you been to a game at Lamport Stadium?
It’s probably the best game day experience throughout the Championship and Super League.
David Argyle is the top dog at the Wolfpack, he is ultimately responsible for everything that happens.

I don't think he has, but he seems to know more about the club than the owner does.

Yes one automatic and one through the play offs but as the OP was saying Workington have beaten them twice this season and will have to play them again

As Castleford found out last season, you can beat a team all you want in the league, it's how you perform when it matters that counts!

Bit of stating the obvious that remark, someone like David Argyle at any club you care to mention could make a successful Super League team, if he can do it in completley virgin territory in Canada he could do it anywhere, Workington? Keighley? Newcastle? Fev? Leigh? do you want me to go on, till I've named every club.

The Lamport stadium just looks like a bigger version of Dewsbury's.
