Yes, but never the less they did have the chance to be in Super League as a merged team, they chose not to. End of argument.

Gingdong, leave it alone and focus on Thursday's game.
Whilst the cheap tickets at Bulls have most certainly had an effect on the Fax gate I would not want to be in their shoes. The Bulls fans who I am more than happy to give banter to at a match deserve more after the efforts they made to raise 1/2 a million quid.
What has to happen now has got to be fair to others that have been in this situation, and others who may come up against it shortly.
Not sure what the situation is if the club go under and the RFL have hold of the great white elephant.

The one thing that unites this game, indeed the only reason we have the game is the supporters.

we were united until, at a guess, around 1995....then it was a case of 'I'm alright jack'

Spot on, and while I feel for Bradford fans I doubt there will be too much sympathy, especially as it was Caisley who played a major role in shafting the rest of the clubs.

Where all victims somewhere along the line spener!!!
Better to take it out on those dishing it out, rather than those who hurt the most as a result of it!!

In 95 we were pushing for a play off place then booted out all rubber stamped by Caisley and i never heard 1 Bradford fan protest.

And that is the basis for you coming on here and making a t1t of yourself?

Firstly, sudden amnesia from the Fev fan thinking his team came 7th?! Funny that because Bradford came 7th too..4 places above Fev.

Lets look at other clubs who didn't make the initial cut - Salford, Wakey, Widnes, Hull, Huddersfield, KR, Leigh. Look at how all those clubs have struggled since Or perhaps they all got promoted back into Super League at various times, all but one now being in the 14.

Everyone knew that 10 teams were staying up, the rest relegated.

Maybe Fev fans should be more bitter at the coaches, teams and boards not competent enough to stay up or get back up rather than childishness like this
