Was watching this today when my dad turned to me and said "it's naff this" but I think the club are on to something bringing it back.

Last season I would have seen it the same way and thought of it as dated and way too nineties. HOWEVER, the nineties are now twenty years ago. Everything nineties is now just beginning to get past the naff and dated stage and is now becoming retro. My 90's taste in music and dress sense is now popular with the young lasses upstairs at work. Good barometer that!

Forget the parade. That girl band that were performing during the pre-match entertainment were a car crash. Bull Mans Parade should have run them over on their way back to the tunnel.

As for the parade, it's very outdated in my opinion. Does the club still have that kids area where they used to have a DJ, bouncy castles and the cheerleaders?

Gotta agree, they were absolutely terrible. Wasn't even that it just wasn't my type of music, they were just bloody awful.

I enjoyed the band at the Wigan game, but this week's effort was nothing short of shocking. I can only hope they were some sort of last minute replacement.

This weeks music wasn't my taste either but I guess it might have gone down well with the younger girls/boys. If we had a rock band every week it would be a bit dull I suppose!

Little harsh, they sort of held a note in a high pitched kind of way. It was too loud though, which wasn't their fault.

They also seemed to be a member short from where I was sat (in the bar).

I think the parade in principle is a good idea for the nippers... but it only seemed to consist of a stretch Limo the Bullettes (who were quite good actually) and the guy who couldn't turn his buggy thing around without doing a 3 point turn.

My 5yr old son absolutely loved the parade it made his day waving his foam hand around with a big smile on his face made me chuffed i had brought him...the girl group on the other hand he hated and sat with his hands over his ears (says it all really)

What happened to having an old player interviewed by Duffy? Thought Wigan Bull's feedback was that they thought it was a good idea and would do it?

I've often thought that with the Bulls connections with Bradford College they could somehow organise some sort of competition where students studying music or that are in bands could end up playing at Odsal during the pre-match/half time show?

The girl group were missing a member for some reason This is them missdtheband.com/ I actually thought they were OK. Not my sort of stuff at all, but for the younger fans probably quite a good group

My 10 yr old daughter loves the parade and especially seeing bullman and bullboy. We both thought the band were good as well.

As per usual the Bulls are not going to please everyone all the time. Or it would appear some of the posters on here are beginning to show their age a bit?

As others have said, much of the pre-match stuff is for the littlies!
My too certainly enjoy that part.

Like it or not these are the future people who will be filling the ground, so getting them there week in week out is vital.

I didn't think the band were too bad at all - just loud - it's too much for little ears!

Surprised that anyone enjoyed that band. It might not be to my taste, but I like to think I can still appreciate if someone's good at what they're doing or not.

Those three didn't seem to be in tune and certainly struggled to sing together on quite a few occasions. A lot of people around me were actually cringing at times, and not just because it was too loud (which no doubt didn't help them).

Yes, they need to get different entertainment for different tastes, I agree. But if they're going to get someone to aim for that taste, I'd rather they at least got someone who seemed remotely talented. The three girls on the stage seemed to me like decent dancers singing karaoke.

Bring back that rather large chap that sung 'If I Were A Rich Man' last season.

Well you can diss Bullman's parade all you want cos I've gotta sauce that says Bullman is homesick for the green green grass of home and if you don't believe it you're gunna have egg on your face, innit.

My mate has got a band, he is only 17. he played at cue gardens 2 weeks ago and played at leeds university last week, he is not very well known as he has just come out of schoo, how do you get in touch with bulls to let them know about this band?

Email Stuart Duffy.

I personally think Bullman's Parade is excellent, although I admit I never watch it.

Have you got a direct email address for stuart?

Me neither.

The parade is fine, it's still appealing to the kids I think even if the days of the whole main stand rising at the very sight of Bullman ended years back.

I wish they would ditch the second rate pub acts though. It would be nice to hold a conversation before the game and soak in the Odsal ambience as it draws nearer to kick off. Especially now that we have the big time feel back. It's little surprise that we are not the most vociferous of support at home after 15 years of the American style 'clap in rhythm to this Queen song' programming still very much in vogue at Odsal despite the Deakin revolution being so long ago that some of our top prospects were in Primary school at that time.

At the very least, could we just turn the speakers down a little?

I actually don't mind the entertainment that much, yes sometimes it's not to my liking but guess what, most of the charts isn't nowadays. I didn't think the band did that bad of a job at the weekend, yes it's a bit loud and it's difficult to hold a conversation with the guy next to you on the popular side but again it doesn't bother me to the point where it affects my enjoyment.

The parade is ok and the fact that balls are now chucked in for the kids adds a highlight for them and I'm sure we'll be seeing a rush down by the younger generation to the front in future matches.

It's a disgrace that they aren't getting acts like Rihanna or Katy Perry to do the prematch entertainment it's a total lack of ambition. I suggested forcing Oasis to reform but it fell on deaf ears and when I suggested tempting Michael Jackson out of retirement Duffy said something about "mortal hurdles" being in the way. Total lack of ambition and totally half hearted!
