It was with Lesley Vainikolo and Shontayne Hape.

I think most teams would, based on last week!

Talking of signs, is the edge of Bradford still plastered with those 'The People's Team' signs ?

I don't think so.

I think the word is "guffaw".

Remember what happened last year when they were gonna sign the cronulla half back?

Ooh don't mention those words "The Peoples Team" to me

How can any club be so pig headed as to call their team the peoples team?



Although it was rather irritating at the time that the club and their fans actually believed their own hype, it makes it all the more funny now that the former "Peoples Team" have pulled in a mega average crowd this season of 9,500 fans



Whilst i'm having a rant, the most annoying thing i have ever seen in SL is when the Bulls had their "Men in black" themed night at Odsal against the Rhinos, and all their players ran out wearing black sunglasses

yes you are and in the week before you play in the grand final.
obsessed much?

I'd say they are just amused at what "uber coach" mcbananas next "marquee" signing is!!

Another SL team filling their boots with Aussies for 2010. How encouraging...

The "People's Team" was a Caisley creation. It was supposed to indicate that, unlike you and numerous other SL clubs, the Bulls were not bankrolled by a wealthy individual, but relied primarily on the support of the bodies through the turnstiles.

There was no undue hype, just rubbish promotion. And the fans did not anyway buy into it, because the launch was crap and it was a pants description anyway. Pretty well all of us always considered it embarrassing and just ignored it.

But don't let the facts get in the way of having a dig, eh? After all, we had the opportunity to do it to you for long enough, and as is the way of these things may well have the opportunity at some stage in the future to do so again.

But for now, kindly bog off, eh?

This would be the SL team that has dispensed with Tupou, Morrison, Jeffries, Solomona and Tadulala.

That's 5 overseas out, and three in (so far, anyway).

But not to worry, why spoil a good dig with the facts, eh?

In the main I think you're right - but wasn't it also successful to some degree, in embodying Bradford Bulls culture of that time? I thought it had some level of buy in from fans, and whilst it left an opportunity for opposition fans to have a laugh and the thinking home fan to cringe, for a great many supporters it worked.

No different to some of the utter bol-lux that's come out of Headingley in recent years that's been lapped up by many fans.

No direct dig at the Bulls but the majority of SL. Its still one Aussie up overall considreing run of th mill Jeffries, good on his day that never comes anymore Solomona and do I still play Morrison. Terrific.

Have they signed Chris Walker as well? Or is that still rumour/rubbish?

Wasn't that confirmed two or three days ago? I would look for a link but CBA.

Oh dear, I always feared the day he washed up in SL. Get the white flag ready the comp is on it's uppers.

Havent Leeds got more overseas players than bulls??

Leeds have seven next season (Webb, Donald, Delaney, Leuluai, Buderus, Lauitiiti, Eastwood) which is one more than the RFL allow (perfectly legally of course), how about Bradford?

4 so far

Still rumour. Hope it stays that way tbh.

Utu.

The prosecution rests m'lud.

Ouchy.

Utu was a disastrous (according to the game result) one game promotion, hardly on the same scale as branding the side 'The People's Team.'
