Most important thing is not what goes on on field but having a well run and profitable club. If that happens, then success on field naturally follows.

Re launch of The Big One lottery is the big news I think.

I'm bemused but impressed by the appetite for this sort of thing by our fans. Our level of hardcore fans surely bodes incredibly well for our club..

Karl Pratt is on staff to run the lottery.

I feel a little underwhelmed if I'm honest.

Re: An Evening With the Bulls : Wed Jul 30, 2014 8:29 pm  

Pretty much what I expected to be honest, couldn't go as I didn't finish work till 8 but the key thing is going to be income & stability. Seems we are slowly getting there, if we can retain even the current gates of 5-6 thousand I believe we will be ok moving forward. Squad is coming together, there gonna be departures but on the whole not that bad.
On another subject why are people obsessed with Ainscough been resigned, I appreciate he was passionate and was quick but that was essentially it for his game. All our current wingers offer more IMO. Maybe it's just me.

I was hoping for a few more squad details and possibly some news on season ticket pricings etc., but I can also appreciate that these things take time and we've still got this season to get through yet.

From what I saw, it looked to be a professionally put together event, which bodes well for the future and I'm sure the squad will begin to fill out as the weeks progress, and the season ticket details will come eventually.

I can't believe the negativity

To be honest, it was always going to be more of a 'bang the drum' event than anything earth-shattering in terms of revelations. There was a lot of back-slapping, big cheers and smiling faces. The place was absolutely rammed with Bulls fans and the whole event was a well put together and run event. What more do people want?

Which other clubs in SL, let alone the Championship, would be able to pull off something like that, with so many people?

Re: An Evening With the Bulls : Wed Jul 30, 2014 9:32 pm  

Fantastic turn out for what was essentially a relaunch of the clubs lottery scheme. Hopefully a lot of people will walk away feeling upbeat about the next 6-12 months. Overall a success, it's a just a shame not everybody was able to get in.

Nice touch at the end with the club awarding lifelong Bradford fan Charlie Ebbage 'Life Membership'.

by what? The quality of the announcements or the fact that a club on its aaarse can get 1k to a relatively minor event?
