My spreadsheet social experiment served its purpose. It proved that there is no point in any of us trying to predict anything, as nobody came even close to a correct set of predictions. Indeed after examining the final results, there were queues of bookies in silk-collared Crombies fighting for the Odsal concession, as a get-richer-quick scheme.

I knew you were going to say that... 
I'll go 3000 reported on 3rd January; "reported" to factor in Nothus cynicism of PR. And it'll be a lickle baby Bull.  |

Mine is a quote from the 17th chapter of the book of Job...or so I was led to believe. Not that there is much that is too obviously, wholly believable, in that book but that bit seemed a good candidate - if indeed it is actually there..and indeed, if the book of Job really exists..Well, I'm hanging on to it anyway!  |

| Job, 21:
Quote 21:10 Their bull gendereth, and faileth not; ... 21:11 They send forth their little ones like a flock, and their children dance.'"
What can this mean, if not that the bull will rise, we will not fail, and Odsal will once more be filled with dancing children? |

| Ah, that Mother Shipton. Quite a savvy lass, for somebody who didn't predict she'd end up living in a cave, Oh well.
But did you know she was into rugby league predictions, too? Look at this one:
Quote 'The time will come when England shall tremble and quake for fear of a dead man that shall be heard to speak ; then will the Dragon give the Bull a great snap, and when the one is down, they will go to London town.'"
How could she know about Catalans, and better still, how could she know that when we went down, we would still be playing London?

I bet she didn't predict that one day her gaff would be owned by a little with a bad hair piece. Not a lot of people know that.

No, TT she wouldn't have put [iquite[/i so succinctly as you've done - it would be in some sort of code, but as i write, I'm sure FA is going through the scrolls.... |

On a point of order, Mother Shipton predicted that the world would end in 1881. I therefore don't need to go through the scrolls on this one, as I'm thinking that any post-1881 on-planet predictions would be hard to reconcile with her belief that there wouldn't be a planet.

No its a typo, her teeth were so rotten it was dificult to distinguithh wha she shaid, and illustrious academics now believe it was eighty eighty one = 8081. Noteworthy therefore is:

This from Halifax is a good idea.
viewtopic.php?f=15&t=576806
They've launched a mini season ticket which allows the holder in to any four home games and offers a saving on general admission. I'd like to see Bradford give thought to tapping into the people who can't commit to a full season ticket. For example, I'm not getting a season ticket but buying a mini ticket of this nature would be a no brainer. |

It does make sense. But I think the club want to maximise the number of people buying full price season tickets before looking at offering other deals

That's fair enough I suppose, but I'd hope they are savvy enough to roll out some other offers thereafter.

I think they have done things similar to that before, iirc but it was after the season started. Some of those 'specials' may have been under previous owners but it's still [largely the same people in the office doing the admin, so I'm sure those things would have put forward in meetings etc.
I certainly hope so, 'cos it's a good idea.

They did it in one of the crisis years as a short term measure I think. I can't remember which one. They all look the same to me.

They've gone small step in this direction with kick off membership on website now. Think they've misjudged pricing a bit mind. £60 for one game and members club discounts is too much. If they'd gone two games + membership for £50 or one game + membership for £30 think they'd sell quite a few. Can't see many people taking up current offers TBH. |

I re-read their latest offer a few times but can't find any way that it represents value for money. If that's supposed to be a tempting offer its way over my head. |

That's what I thought. If it had been two or three games then it would sell. Think their placing too high a value on the membership discounts and pack tbh. Most people aren't going to use many of discounts. |

Definitely. I honestly and sincerely don't want to be negative , but the added value that discounts brings over a conventional season ticket is being massively overplayed. |
