Where we have spent far too much time, in the manure.

Glad to have been right about the outcome (if not the margin). It would seem that we have dug ourselves out of the crap we were in, purely by accident, as the Owner didn't have a replacement in mind when he fired his selected coach, but yet again, we seem to have found ourselves with a more than capable coach at the helm.
I would suggest that Hughes and Loubser make it a priority to secure this guy's services now rather than wait until it is too late to sign players for next year.
Our current form would see us around 7th spot, with us being capable of challenging all those sides currently 7th-14th and whilst the nucleus of the squad will be with us next year, we do need 4 or 5 "star" bodies to get us into a top quarter spot in 2023.

We were the better team tonight and deserved that victory. Broncos played a much more open game whilst Bradford were happy to keep making one man drives. Credit to Davis, Leyland, Siti and Parata for making Bradford chase shadows. The Bulls 2 tries came from consecutive penalties and their 2nd looked to have come from a forward pass but hey ho.

It never really felt like we were gonna lose this, Eccles is doing a marvellous job and the boys looked much fitter and keener than our opponents. 3 wins from our last 5 (and 2 from the last 3 away) is a million miles away from the gloom at the start of the season with no wins from our first 10 games (inc the Cup). Get Eccles signed up now !

The team is enjoying our rugby again and it shows

Good to see Sid and James Meadows supporting the boys as well.

If this article is to be believed, it doesn't sound like Hughes has told him no matter what, he has a fitness role to fall back on if he wants it. That could be the next shambolic Broncos decision, to lose Mike.

You’ll recall DC that others once amongst the management team were unsure if he was a rat a snake or a xxxx. It’s possible that view is one that has traction in the upper echelon of our club in which case your self harming suggestion becomes almost a certainty such is the perversity of our decision making.

Speaking of foul mouthed former management, the Broncos kit is seemingly no longer available via the APX website.

Possible evidence that our fan base is growing in line with 5000 target? Hmmmm!

The Hull Shop boy seems to have torched some bridges on the way out the door. The grandiose manner of his departure stinks of a firing and him taking every cent available to him by law.....6 weeks notice and we mad him work it!
His inability to step away from social media when drunk points to an end to his career in sports marketing and instead a career offering free numbering on pub football kits in the north east. I'm sure his mate at Hull Trains is having a great time explaining the expected ROI from the Broncos Shirt deal


I wonder what Paul Blanchards plans are after the commonwealth games? I'm sure he and Hughes are still in touch, whilst Gus is AGAIN at a loose end

Perhaps APX could find a position for Gus. It seems he talks a good job, so would fit right in. We certainly do not want him back.

Just watched the Bradford highlights on YouTube. Strikes me that "the game caller" does a commentary for bulls TV and whilst one eyed (Flanagan JR scored an average try from a forward pass and is lauded, but flapped, patted and stumbled whilst avoiding a tackle for our last) it stuck me that surely there's a position for us to get someone to do the same for our games?
Maybe get monkey back as our coms guy and pay him in special brew
