I would say so and I must admit I'm looking forward to seeing some new grounds.

Really, are you for real? Let's not dress this up as some sort of exciting adventure if we drop into the 3rd tier. I expect it will have a pretty devastating effect on crowd numbers. Expect you can chop off at least 50% and once people get out the habit it's easier to not go than to convince them to come back.

As is there right, I for one will still be SUPPORTING them.

I thought the consensus was probably, or possibly, or depends on the RFL, or who knows? Pick one & go with it.

Yeah i think it will affect crowds.
I know some who have gone for about 60 years who said if we go down that will be it. I go every home and nearly all away games, but i think i'll only go to home games nexrt year, but thats only because of social aspect and habit. Can't say I've enjoyed the rugby for while. Ive not enjoyed SL either so even if we were in there, i don't think I'd enjoy the rugby still TBH.
The only positive i can see (and it totally depends on how we react as a club) is if we truly rebuild as a club. Fill the squad with young HG players, give the fans something to connect to and BUILD. A good year in L1 and we could have a good year in the championship again with a stable, continuous, HG young squad. Toulouse did it. We've made wholesale changes every year since 2005, and every year we have performed worse than we did year before.

We're working on it.
We got fed up of being soooo good; it was boring; we needed a challenge.
So we've decided to play cr@p until we hit the bottom of the barrel; then work our way up to the top again;
it puts a bit more excitement into the weekend.
We've been planning it for years, but its been surprising how difficult it was to drop down;
We've had to bribe the RFL to deduct us silly points year on year, we've had to persuade other clubs to buy our players,
We've had to teach our players how to NOT catch a ball; we've had to bring in chairmen to rip the guts out of the club,
sometimes we employed the wrong coach and it looked like they were improving us - but we soon put a stop to that.
Its been a tough few years, but we'll get there

Here, as you seem incapable of looking it up yourself, I've created a simple website to keep you updated:
[urlhttp://arethebullsrelegatedyet.ga/[/url
I've even put up the link so you don't have to mash the keyboard with your hands to type it in too. I am presuming your typing is as cutting and incisive as your wit here though.....

I've seen a number of similar comments over the last few months, so here's my two-bobsworth:
I began to loose interest in SL when it was cut down to 12 teams but not just because we(and London) were kicked out. These days, it has become oooooh-sooooo-booooooring. Same old teams on Sky week in week out, same old boring plays(5 tackles and kick), same old boring commentator telling us every players' life story instead of commentating on the game. I could go on and on and on ..... I've been watching RL since 1964 and I've seen many changes, some good, some bad but methinks the time has now come for a complete overhaul before the RFL and Sky Sports ruin our beloved sport for good.

I'd agree with you if it wasn't for Cas.
As for SL, I lost interest once we stopped winning it .

Pretty much everyone said that, all us fans wanted to start from scratch but rfl wouldn't let us..we were lambs to slaughter this year but yet some deluded opposition fans still think the rfl did us a favour and we're their pets.

Jesus wept who pressed play on the moron machine?
At least we won't have to listen to this crap anymore.
Where were you in January with this amazing foresight of yours? We know we said that as did 3 of the 4 groups that wanted to set up a new Bradford club. RFL wanted to sell tickets to the summer bash and so we were sold down the river.

| Maybe a temporary move to Horsfall Stadium would make sense. Odsal is a massive expensive stadium for a League 1 club and as I understand you are only tenants.

Maybe. Who owns the lease on Odsal? Would they like their 'favoured' club play at a ground other than Odsal? Wouldn't it then be sat empty?

It's no expense as we are on a rent holiday and he RFL pay the maintenance , as part of their love for the Bulls
We can't be allowed to move as the RFL are obliged to ensure RL is played at Odsal until the clause expires so if we go, they would be in breach of the clause

| I think this has gone far enough. We already have sufficient threads letting us know how rubbish we are.
