Monday result says it all, 84-6 against half a Wigan side, what an advert for the comp. I fear it will only get worse. They will struggle to get enough point

After the 2004 GF, my favourite memory is for the home match v Bulls that same year. Never known an atmosphere like it when we stuffed them after years of being tormented by the likes of Jimmy and Robbie. Briefly, we had our own version of Wigan v Saints or FC v KR and Bulls v Rhinos in front of 20,000 was a spine tingling fixture. I miss all that buy know it will never happen again for Bradford as all the Bull Power hype was nothing more than, well, hype. As much as I couldn't stand them over the years, I hope they pull through on a secure footing this time round. I think we will never see the glory days of '96 to 2003 again.

Bradford were poor yesterday. Sixty-one missed tackles against quite a young Wigan side. http://superleague.co.uk/report/9976

There is only one person at the Bulls that I have any sort of pity for and that is Franny Cummins. He as a bunch of players who quite clearly are only interested in the next pay cheque and are devoid of any professional pride. On paper there are IMO four weaker squads(London, Wakefield, Widnes and Hull KR) in the competition.

As for the fans I have no sympathy whatsoever.

Basket-case SL franchise requiring a meaningful dose of good old-fashioned relegation.

If that doesn't work, there's always euthanasia.

Like blood in the water for your lads the other day, saw it and savaged it. Some of those youth players wouldve been champing at the bit to get a run out and prove they can do a job for you. (and after watching last seasons jnr GF at Headingley they know they can) with a run out no doubt at Hunslet this weekend, those lads will be hoping for an extended run in the team. I said at Odsal that we went for the throat on Thursday, then eased off, but a team such a Wigan, Saints etc would run up the score.
