Not seen you guys too often this year but Menzies has been outstanding whenever ive seen him.
He will still have it when he's 40

along with signed Manly and Bulls - wtf that does not make any sense - what a laughin stock, signed waT??

I've spent all day trying to narrow down the possibilities. I've got it down to three, but that's as good as I can do. It is either:

1. Signed Manly and Bulls used condoms
2. Signed Manly and Bulls floodlighting pylons
3. Signed Manly and Bulls merchandise

its terrible is that, some no mark clearly

Absolutely.

I guess nobody has noticed it says £50 a head on the website.

Either that's a typo or it really will be a quiet night!!!

Since it includes a three course meal and is black tie, I doubt it's a typo.

If they were charging a fiver for that, people would go regardless of the event itself!

after this season i will be suprised if it actually goes ahead with the way most fans feeling plus £50 per head is a lot

The POY is usually just a fan event with no meal or dress code.
It's usually a fiver or thereabouts so that's why I thought it might be a typo.

It doesn't mention any detail [url=http://www.bradfordbulls.co.uk/news/4367/BULLS%20ANNOUNCE%20PLAYER%20OF%20THE%20YEAR%20EVENINGhere[/url

Except the bit that says "The evening will be a Black Tie event and will include a three course meal with Bulls Player/s joining you at your Table" two paragraphs above the price.

TBH i think this perfectly illustrates the clubs feelings to the general fan by making such a highly popular event in the past so expensive to attend.

Leeds player of the year dinners have always been expensive, black tie events. Then again, we've always had a little bit more panache at Leeds.

Maybe the black tie is to mark what will no doubt be a sombre occasion?

Either that or perhaps they know that many won't turn out due to the incredibly poor season and to save embarrassment they've decided to turn it into an 'exclusive' event?

I'd like a signed picture of Nero wearing a Bulls shirt with his arm around the shoulders of his hero Beaver wearing a Manly shirt.

Don't want to see one of our Sammy wearing a Manly shirt though

Precisely the same had crossed my mind too.

Well I detest black tie functions with a passion - spent all my working life in a bloody suit so I hate getting dressed up in my own time, and will only go when forced so this one is not for me. Think I've managed to escape with only about four in last twelve months - although at one of them David Cameron was the main guest speaker, and I've only just recovered...

Or they are worried that the general fans might turn hostile after the the rubbish we've been subject to this season and this is a way of keeping numbers down.

I've been to numerous black tie/sportsmans dinners. Generally the guests know bugger all about the team, but they like to be seen there, like to bid outrageous amounts for sports bling, usually signed by a boxer. I used to work with a lad at Bradford who is black & into men's health (steady AP). He was forever getting guests coming up to shake his hand at such functions, even though he's never played any RL.

well obviously none of that was there when i posted the link. I thought they'd put more detail on and them some wag would point it out.

I'd have posted the text but it would have been replaced with a link by the mods anyway. I won't be going at £50 quid a pop anyway. Don't they know there's a recession?

Mens health is no laughing matter tigs. I likes a good healthy prostate I does!

What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be playing Mafia Wars?

It was there last night when they put it up on the website and has been there ever since.

I'm guessing that would make more sense to me if I knew what Mafia Wars was

Aye keep the riff raff out.



But I won't be going, black tie certainly ain't my cuppa tea and I certainly won't be shelling out £50 of my hard earned to wear one!

Don't pretend, you're really an Australian called Brad, and here's the proof
