Poor attempt at trolling, you might’ve got a bite a few years ago but you won’t find anyone on here that thinks the Bulls are “a super league”.

Cheer up you had long enough rubbing it in are faces when you were cheating all those trophies. Not jumping on the shelf bus from the tip now are you

Looks like someones had their first beer tonight

I shouldn’t reply as I know you’re on here for a bite. And you’ve had your first beer. But not one person thinks we are Super League quality. Literally the only thing that is Super League standard is our academy. And the potential to get decent crowds (should we start playing well).

I honestly don’t mind fans from teams like Halifax, Featherstone, Leigh etc coming on here giving us grief because our glory days have gone. It makes me appreciate that we had glory days! How long has it been since the likes of Halifax had any meaningful seasons? Or trophies? Better to be has-beens, than never-was don’t you think?

Difference is we aren’t dragging Chris Andersen on for a prematch interview babbling on about how good 1986/87 was .

Not going to go in to the ins and outs of the performance people will have their own opinions but what i will say is the booing of Sam Hallas when he came over to applaud the fans was an utter disgrace. Way out of line in my book.

What’s that got to do with the fans?

Bongser, in fairness and good conscience, can think of at least one Leigh (frequent) visitor that has never given you grief. He is, furthermore, struggling to recall a time in the last six or seven years when he has read a fellow Leyther post anything but support.

Unfair "2011".

Stay after class!

I thought that was mainly the Fev fans mixed in with us. The bulls fans around us were applauding. The general feeling was that was a much improved performance on recent weeks.

I actually felt a bit nervous throughout this game as I thought Bradford were on the front foot a lot of the game and when I saw our team named with so many key players missing I thought it might be tight especially with 2 backs and a hooker on the bench. Luckily we got an early score and ground it out from there. No doubt Fax will pick up more bans from the game but the clear instigator of the coming together was Flanagan after what was a nothing tackle by Fairbank and hopefully Patton picks up a lengthy ban as there is certainly no place in the game for what he did.

For me Bradford look like they need a complete reset and you have to feel sorry for your new coach as he really had no chance taking over this team.

I thought it was a very average game and whilst Fax were nowhere near their best we coped well enough with as poor a Bradford side as I can remember seeing for a long time. Still, two more points in the bag and an enjoyable day out, the highlight being a couple of pre match pints in the ever excellent Corn Dolly. Up The Fax!

No offence intended because you’re generally a voice of reason however if that was much improved… we really are in a mess. I genuinely fell asleep part way through the 1st half and could only watch 10 minutes of the 2nd, the quality from both sides was low. Ryan Brierley rated Halifax as the 2nd best side in the Championship beforehand, they certainly didn’t show that quality yesterday, although perhaps they knew they didn’t need to.

I suspect it is going to be a very long wait til this season is done, with little to cheer about. I’m sure the Cumbrian clubs will be targeting our fixture for a scalp, if they turn up enthusiastically and fight for every inch then can turn over our lads. I’ve seen nothing to suggest next year will be any better with reduced resources (season tickets sales WILL be down) and uncertainty over central funding. Doyle etc will be picked up by a SL club and Bradford will just fill the shirts with whatever is left.

Anyone give an unbiased summary of what happened regarding sending offs? I was watching the football in the 2nd half so evidently missed the most exciting part of the dull fest.

Improved as in we had energy, fight, enthusiasm. The chase back to cover the Halifax break in the second half and prevent a try showed me we had found some team spirit which had been lacking. Set completion rates were pretty good I think. There were a couple of individual errors again but our goal line defence was better.

Can watch for yourself below. Im obviously a Fax fan but to the looks of my eyes Fairbank drops a player which on first impression to the Bradford players looks a high tackle, on the replay its a fair shot on the Bradford players shoulder. That causes Flanegan to run towards our players and then another Bradford player, Im not sure who it is, goes even further and gets in the face of a Fax player. Joe Martin then takes it upon himself to run in to try to get to the 2nd Bradford player before 3 players restrain him one being Dec Patton who appears to gouge Martin's eye or at the very least rake his face. https://twitter.com/PremierSportsTV/sta ... 4191166471 With every viewing Patton's actions look worse and worse.

I thought the game in general was just a poor standard of rugby, from both sides. Everyone looked to be moving in slow motion.
We have no attacking threat whatsoever, nobody with any pace or agility, and yesterday we had literally one guy on the pitch with any ball playing ability so Fax just kept the pressure on him.

Our game was followed by Leigh v Fev and it almost felt like they were playing a different sport to us such was the difference in class. Pretty depressing tbh.

That was the Featherstone fans.

Hardly an eye gouge. The commentary from a bloke who admits himself that he hates Bradford didn’t help. It looked like handbags to me after the high tackle fand I’ve no idea why Martin was sent off.

You should get back on your sister.

I actually enjoyed it. We’re miles off the pace but I thought we played better than we have done of late.

Feel sorry for Burton - Kear should have been playing there.

Martin was sent off for running in, exactly the same as two or three bulls players did.

Typica of you lot taking someones family into it.

Can’t handle the banter take it like a man!!!
