Thanks for that.
In truth, the list is endess, and these memories of past days and days yet to come are one of the reasons why we watch the game. All the more so for those with more woll on their backs, who can remember having good times despite the years being barren and the team being poor-to-crap.

| I don't remember the year ( 2002 or 2003 maybe ) but Leon scoring a try in the last minute at headingley to win the game is probably the most crazy i've ever gone in any rugby match including finals.
Was that the same match as Reardon smashing Danny Mc into touch.

I remember that. For some reason I was on the eastern terrace and got plenty of banter/abuse from the Leeds fans throughout that game. When Leon scored in the last minute it went a bit quiet and when I looked around everyone had gone

| My first Bradford game which was v Leeds at Headingley. Yorkshire Cup preliminary round 1990 - took my brother as well and we had a right laugh rubbing Paul Harkins nose in it (with help from all the other Northern faithful that day). Remember someone squaring up to Henderson Gill and someone said 'Hit him with your thighs Gilly!'
Other favourite memory
Then Paul Dixon tackling Graham Steadman seconds after him catching a bomb which Steadman spun out of in a daze to be finished off by Karl Fairbank - then he got counted out

| Bulls getting the Super League Trophy after thrashing PSG 68-0 on a balmy late summer evening.
Withers' Drop Goal v Leeds when 24,000 were packed into Odsal.
Beating Leeds at Headingley in 1998 felt pretty good.

| Quote ="lani_bull"Paul Deacon's last minute penalty to beat Wigan at Valley parade in May 2002 when we'd been losing something like 20-6 late on in the first half. Came from a controversial crossing penalty, Nobby was calling for the kick to touch and the drop but Deacs lined it up from just inside the Wigan half and nearly on the touchline. I was sat behind the goal and it came towards me and through the posts in slow motion. That always sticks in my mind.
I actually still think I have that match on video somewhere.'"
I remember that. Don't think he would have been able to do that at Odsal or any other ground for that matter, but at VP it was a tactic that you used very well in the tight games. Small, compact pitch - give a pen away and Deacon kicks the two points for fun.

Winning at Central Park in 1997 was a class moment and for me just told us that we could win the league, though i believe it was fairly early into the season..
Beating Wigan at home in 1996 was another sign that we had arrived into the big time i thought. Never saw us beat you before then.

Yep. Remember those. Remember beating you 14-0 at CP in 99 as well. Great game.
Best game in recent years though would be the 12 all draw at the JJB.

Wasn't that 1999 game just pi**ing it down! I remember that!
Mate, the best game of recent years for any bulls fan is the come back in 2005 after two straight losses. Though your comback in playoffs is hard to top.
I remember losing as well in final minute at JJB.. I remember that was a decent game.
Quite a few gutting losses to the pies actually, but some decent wins too.

| Fielden vs Jason Smith, where Smith ended up being led off looking like a '99 with extra raspberry sauce (nod to Tigertot for the memory jog).
Brimah Kebbie's try against Featherstone in 1993, fed in our 20 by Newlove from a bomb, outpaced the defence and then turned Bibby inside out for fun. For someone who seems to be a standing joke amongst Saints fans he didn't half entertain while he played for us.
David Hobbs' radar boot in the Yorks Cup semi vs Wakey at Odsal, 1991.
Doing Leeds 5-nil in the cup at Odsal the year before, with John Gallagher absolutely abject and Schoey doing his nut.

Nope, cant seem to remember the games you claim to have seen, I just recall a fuzzy mist and the bottom of beer glasses for some reason when I try. I think your making em up
I do recall a good game being over by half time in the 2001 Grand Final though - the best Bulls performance I've seen, everything clicked.
Jimmy scoring a try in his last game whilst winning the 2003 grand final wasn't bad either..which team was that against again?
