Any offers been promoted for walk up tickets?

Use 'EARLYBIRD-BRADFORD' to get 20% off on-line tickets before 11:59pm on Friday night. Doubt you'll get a walk up discount.

Hope we can back up from sat and make northern work for it.

It will be interesting to see who plays this weekend.

Anyone know the best sports bar in central London to watch the magic weekend fixtures on Saturday?

Hope Henderson sticks himself in again,you buzz with him.

Agree mate, at the minute we need a leader on the pitch, that showed on Saturday, so hope Hendo gets out on the park with nobby looking after stuff on the sidelines.

Normal service resumed!!

Far too many free mtrs given away.
Players trying to blame the ref, but if you are gonna try to slow the ptb down so much you are going to get pinged, once or twice fine but u have to get the hint.
Looked so good the first 15 mins

Dreadful, dreadful ref.

Still not getting enough out of 6 and 7.

He had a shocker! I know we contributed to our own downfall as per, and that Micky will defend him but the ref had a shocker! In one passage of play I think he missed one obstruction and two forward passes!
And correct me if I'm wrong but didn't he miss a 40/20 in the second half? Hendo seemed to think so!

It was a 40/20 he missed and then gave yet another penalty to the Bulls, perhaps for dissent. Wes waded in 2 (or 3?) times to ask the ref about some of his decisions. Matthew Thomason should be given next week off and lets pray that Chris Leatherbarrow isn't the ref next weekend when we play Leigh. Still a very disappointing result.

Thought the ref was on the whole okay. Touch judge called the 40/20 not the ref. Lack of ideas from London did not help, caught out on the a couple of times on the 5th tackle and then run into dead ends. Neither team would survive in the SL.

After your result last week I was almost believing we would lose today and to fall behind by 12 confirmed my worst fears. I doubt either of the teams would be called upon in Super League as the extra money available would bring about noticeable improvements to the squads.The big test arises in the middle eights.

Lots of calls for crossing! Rule does not exist. Not trying to defend anyone to be honest, but it has to be actual obstruction, there were 2 that last year would have been pulled up but rule has changed, no defending players taken out or impeded so by rules of the game no obstruction. 40/20 call was tj players need to such it up and accept the decision, they got penalised for dissent.
Dunno about fwd pass.
Was interesting that the players didn't react trying to claim obstruction which was one thing.
We gave away 5 Penalties for laying on or hands in at the ptb that's not down to the ref, especially when they actually spoke to each other about slowing it down

That's players need to suck it up and accept decisions

There were at least two completely indefensible decisions.

First, ref called held, attacker and defenders continued in the tackle oblivious. Ref penalises defenders. On what basis, one side rather than the other? Surely re-set the PTB.

Second, Bradford player feigns PTB (happened a few other times too), London players move up. London penalised. Offence is very clearly delaying the PTB.

I won't mention 40/20 other than to say that the ref had a better view than the TJ and so I hope he made the decision himself (right or wrong).

Finally, always rings alarm bells when refs end games by trying to even out the penalty count - noticed we got the final two pens for stuff that had gone unpunished for 75 minutes.

The penalty at the ptb not being able to hear what the ref is saying to the players does not help, although on that one even Karl Harrison was a bit confused.
As for the 40 20 the tjs only actually rule on 2 things that's ball in touch and goal kicks rest are advice, if that's where he says it goes in touch the ref cannot overuse that decision.
As for playing the ball quite defenders should not move until ball has left the back foot.

And what are the other offences you are talking about

By overuse I mean over ride

The reason you tend to find Penalties start to even up is because the game swings the way of the other team, we started pulling it back, we were becoming the dominant side for that 10-15 mins, it's generally the dominant team that get the penalties.

So Penalties, at least 6 for messing around at ptb one for dissent, at least a couple of head shots and rest probably Offside I can't recall, that's not the refs fault that's the players not reacting! Just silly play
