With a bit of luck, by the time we play them, that unprofessional bellend "Head of Operations" of theirs will have been silenced, otherwise he'll turn his anti-Bradford bile into overload on social media and make his otherwise good club look very amateur.

The guys an embarrssment. I mean he could say its his personal account, views are his own etc. But he even uses Keighleys platform to air his pathetic views!

Agreed. He is an absolute joke. Shame really. I have a real soft spot for the Cougars after being there on scholarship when Jason Demetriou was the head coach. Really implemented some great foundations at the club. Don't get me wrong the scholarship system was poor at the time but he brought on the reserve grade well at the time with some very good coaches.

Love Cougar Park, especially the atmosphere when the Bulls are in town. Shame they aren't a Championship club anymore like but very much looking forward to the home and away games against them!

I'll be getting a freebie ticket if we have to go to Cougar Park. Certainly not giving them any money.

Whilst Mr. Chapman is in probably the worst case for a long time (certainly for an actual club representative), he's by no means the only one. We've had so much Anti Bradford abuse from fans especially (and no doubt other club officials, although I couldn't say that for sure) over the last 20 years from them that it's unreal. Whether they're justified in it or not is obviously another debate (I'm sure they feel they are, I'm sure we feel they're not), but if they think they can do nothing but throw abuse at us for 20 years and then want us to turn up in numbers and swell their gates and bank account, I for one won't be partaking. Same reason I very rarely go to Halifax, although they haven't been quite as bad as the Cougars. I for one would happily get behind a campaign for absolutely none of our fans to go to Cougar Park next season for those very reasons. Spend your money at other clubs who haven't spent two decades slagging us off.

I notice the Bulls article says that Ethan is the 14th player to commit his future to the Bulls for next season. From that, you assume that maybe Ashley Gibson & Lee Smith haven't actually committed after all yet. Even then, I still count 15. Maybe Hallas hasn't actually committed either? Have the Bulls themselves actually announced him or was it just that T&A article that people assumed it from?

Or of course the dipsh*t in charge of the website can't count. Which is probably the most likely explanation.

Very excited to see how the Oakes/Ryan patrnership will flourish over the next 2 years.

that would be the Keighley poster from page 1 of this thread then, his twitter ID is in his sig.

Looking at the team list on this forum for League 1 just beings home the reality of 2018 if there is to be no restructure, and how few fans league 1 has with only a notable couple of clubs the exception. We really do need to be getting ourselves out of the third tier asap, and the squad is coming together well so far.
