Well done to the Bulls-something Quins should have looked at

You were demonstrating to us how you managed to get to 10,000 pledges...

I can't either, but well done to Bradford, not totally going into a corner and dying.

[size=70like some teams *ahem wakey.[/size

You're not bringing Caisley back are you





Joking aside, you have to say what fantastic value for money this is. Can it be beaten anywhere in any sport?

However, the hard work is getting them to attend every game and then spend more money, on food, merchandising etc. If you have a season like last year it could be hard work.

Absolutely. An important part of the platform for the renaissance has been built, but it will count for little if results on the park do not improve. THAT part of the platform is of course still being built...

nah I don't believe it, won't accept it.

Crwods will still be crap, performances rubbish the club is supposed to be going off into a corner and dying not trying to build itself up again.

Just hurry up and die you coffin dodgers.

It's something a lot of clubs should have looked at. Fair play to Bradford. They had prepared their pre-season way before the end of SLXV, okay the team had had a poor year, but the marketing team must have been working flat out early.

I can see Bradford averaging 15k next year.

From my post off Total RL

The 11,016 total is just adult pledges.

The OAP's, U16's and free U8's aren't counted in the final pledge figure and don't forget that 11,016 figure will rise as it did last night when at first they announced 10,681 but later upped it to the current figure of 11,016, because people are still making their pledge after a good thousand of the current season ticket holders waited to see if we would do it and we have have.

The family tickets only count as two pledges, so if 1/4 of pledges (say 2500) were family tickets for the main stand and they all have two children then that's another 5000 people who'll be coming through the stadium next season before you add the 11,016 and the OAP's and the U8's.

I think my estimate of 13,500 is going to be way low, as we are now potentially looking at least having 15,000 season pass holders when you include everyone "Adult, OAP, U16's and U8's.

You have to hand it to Peter Hood, Stuart Duffy and Ryan Duckett.

They took one massive gamble with this club and the gamble has well and truly paid off massive dividends.

I've said since Potter was announced as the new number 1 and the board changes at the top, that this is the whole re-birth of the Bradford Bulls.

This is our 1996 all over again and it's truly brilliant, make that a fantastic feeling to be part of it.

I think all the Bradford fans are reading into the increased crowrds too much. It's fantastic having a large support, but looking at your squad for next year, I wouldn't be that happy yet. There is nothing yet to suggest you won't finish in a similar position to last year.

Still about 4 signings to be announced

More Aussie crocks?

I wouldnt get too excited about all these people 'pledging' for Bradford Bulls.

Limp wristed 'band' the Jonas Brothers made a pledge as well... a 'Purity Pledge' whereby they have all pledged to stay virgins until they get married.


You cant tell me they arent rooting the granny out of any female that comes backstage for an 'autograph'


I know I would be.







These 'pledges' are worthless.

Between me and all my mates, we must've made about a hundred pledges using fake names and contact details






Im sure there are many many many other people that have done the same

One slight issue there....




Apart from your 'Scorpions for SL' username (which is you as well) You have no mates?

I doubt it. There may be some who have done one false pledge but I would imagine most adults have got better things to do than make hundreds of them!

Interesting. You do know that you've just admitted to that on a public message board, and as you've legally entered a contract with the Bulls by signing up to the pledge, they can now pursue all available options to get you to pay up for all those entries you made?

What a numpty..

Im fairly sure they have to be able to prove it was me, im also fairly sure i covered my tracks well enough



Out of all the people who made the pledge, and had no intention of actually paying, im sure there are some idiots who didnt cover their tracks, fortunately im not one of them






Barry (not your real name, but as its the one you're going by until this account goes the way of your others, so its what i'll have to call you for now), I'm not sure how you can claim to know i have no friends, when you know nothing about me. Also the about me and scorpions/toulouse being the same person is getting pretty tiresome, i've seen your NRL predictions, i know your hardly The fount of all knowledge, but please try to portray your own bull$hit opinions, as fact a little less.

That's the best you could come up with? You do realise they've had people checking for false pledges right? So you've basically wasted your time. But given that you're in Widnes, it's not like there's much else to do with your time

His dole wont cover it

Wrong again, I've never claimed dole (or whatever its been renamed as) in my life, dont worry, i didnt expect any better from Barry 'Nostradamus' McKenzie.

Pretty childish?

My defence is that it is funny. Whats your defence for coming out with this childish comment:
(note: You being a massive , doesnt count in my book)

Not particularly funny though is it. Especially seen as it will have been a waste of time, as minus a hundred and we've still well beaten our 10,000 target and we'll have more people who buy yet didn't pledge.

I've been through my comments re McGuire and apologised. I accept many people won't accept my apology, you may be one of them, but it doesn't bother me tbh. I may be a ba$tard, but you're a childish one!

does any bradford fan actually think your going to get 10000 pass sales imo i cant see it but this is rl so you never know but good luck to you for trying
