Can you pack in this hurt, indignant victim act now? It hasn't got a bite for weeks, no-one cares.

What act is that?

I was merely pointing out a blatant case of two-facedness that is in evidence on here.

Still, I guess I should be honoured that my words seem to hit more than others eh?

Well, "clever ar$e,", we know that on several occasions some of the players "aren't trying" as much as they should. How do we know this? Because other of the players have gone public and said so. Not that they needed to - we all have eyes - but when players state this as a fact, it sort of eliminates the need to be a "clever ar$e".

Moving on to whether they are doing this "to get the coach the sack", is a weird theory and you're the first exponent I've come across. So no, that isn't what I either believe, or would rather believe, for the record it sounds like a completely barking theory to me.

The "Oooooooh, if [iI[/i said that, you'd all shout at me" act.


You should if they did, but they don't, so you aren't.

Both macca and Hood need to go we need a chairman who is willing to invest alot of money in to this club

And when you land back on Planet Earth do pop by for another chat.

Given Bradford's unique population profile, wouldn't some Sheikh from Abu Dhabi be interested?

They've got some brass and there's a surfeit of places for 'em to eat.

Bradford Bactrians. Has a ring to it.

Of course his time is up. his time was up 2 years ago though and the club will continue to do absolutely nothing about it.

anything below 6th for this club is unacceptable, and thats pushing it. we are 12th, an absolute laughing stock, and Steve McNamara is to blame, because he doesn't have a bloody clue how to coach a Super League team, nevermind one as big as Bradford with such history and expectation.

We have done nothing but go backwards at an alarming rate ever since he got the job after Nobby was hounded out, and this is the price we are paying for it. dwindling crowds, a no hoper coach, with several below required standard players, a few of which are way over the hill, and wouldn't get in any other SL first team.

I don't want to say debacle but..

You're obviosuly upset but your rant is untrue.

What you are trying to do is to change history, everyone is upset at what has gone on this season so far, and we were not that much better than mid-table last year but finished 5th which is 3 places higher than the Warrington team being held up as a shining example of coaching currently occupy.

But before that, in 2006 we were 3rd or 4th when Noble left and stayed 4th all season. That after the loss of our "star" prop Fielden and our coach. In 2007 we started off well, and spent over the final half of the season in 3rd place, where we finished.

Now we're talking broad brush here, but how can any reasonable person call those years "going backwards at an alarming rate"? Seriously? I mean, try and be objective even if you can't be fair.

Think you're being a bit childish. It didn't seem anymore of a rant than some of you opinions.

In Macca 3 full seasons in charge, where he has made his signings we have gone backwards at an alarming rate.

07 - 3rd
08 - 5th
09 - 12th - ?

Yes, that is indeed an alarming rate.

Cant really agree with that logic. A few years back when it was still mathematicaly possible for us to stay up the chairman sacked the manager and appointed king kear - we won four of our last six including an away win at your place (in the days when you were decent) and we stayed up. If the chairman didnt act when he did we would have just continued being garbage and gone down.


Interesting that you mentioned Jordan in your post though - maybe macca will try to sign her - he did sign Sykes and Sherriffe who are without doubt the biggestTITS in Super League

Being realistic thats all lets face it we have no money in the pot.

TBF my mum's not that bothered.

Not sure what I said that might be viewed as "childish" but hey ho,

... qualifies as a rant in my book. But if you want to debate what is and isn't a rant, leave me out.




3rd and 5th is respectable league positions. You just mean it's been an appalling season this year, that's all. While we can all have lofty ambitions, there's not a lot wrong with top 5. Well, not in my book.

Mate, that is about as [size=150un[/sizerealistic as unrealistic gets!

Well. Maybe we have lower expectations, but I can't say I'd be happy with 5th place and first round of the play offs every season.

simply not good enough for the Bradford Bulls IMO.

From where we were when he took over, and to where we are now, we have gone backwards very quickly. that much is fact.

No we haven't, we've gone backwards very quickly [ithis season[/i, that is the fact.

We did not go backwards, at all, in the year he took over.

The following year we went one step forwards.

I'm only pointing out this for accuracy, as it doesn't help to pretend that we were crap from the minute he took the reins. We weren't.

But he was of course coaching a team he inherited from a far superior set up.

the team he has built is rubbish.

No I dont, I mean 3rd to 5th to 12th in 3 years is backwards at an alarming rate

So I guess your happy with situation at bulls then?

Clearly they do with you, given the amount of them you bookmark.

They don't, and I don't. If it even crossed my mind, (a short journey, I'll grant) I'd book myself straight in with a shrink.

Ah, I see.

In that case when you bring up some of my quotes from way back in 2007 for example, you have actually just remembered them and went hunting them out?

If so I would say that that strengthened my point even further TBH.

I'm going to be very careful what I say because even this reply isn't a general point, but (I suppose inevitably) part of the sort of personal, ad hominem attacks and "I was right all along" pi$$ing contests that you are so keen to start, and want to draw people into, and play to your perceived gallery, so I'll just say this and no more.

It's irrelevant for you to complain that I might bring up a quote from you from 2007. If for some reason I did, then what YOU need to take on board is NOT that I found it, but that YOU SAID IT and have been caught out. I do understand though why that upsets you. The answer is, though, if you don't want your posts quoted - don't make them on a public forum!



WTF? Whatever - a Big Well Done for feeling your "Point" (whatever the hell that may be, and I have no clue) has been "strengthened".

You Da Man. (Is that enough praise?) Are you going to enter Your Point in the World's Strongest Point Contest?

In fact I really couldn't care less what your point might be. I have only posted this so no-one might think for a second you're right and unchallenged.

However: End of public conversation. I won't be boring anyone else with ripostes to any more of your personal crap on this thread. If you want an argument by PM, you know where the buttons are.
