| Quote ="Mick Gledhill"Mark my words when I say that this round 20 clash from Craven Park is the biggest and most important of the season as defeat to the Robbins on Sunday will guarantee no playoff footy for the Bradford Bulls for the first time since the playoffs were introduced back in 1998.
The thought is a truly sickening one, especially when you look at the experienced and big name players up at Odsal.
Defeat on Sunday will also spell the end of Steve McNamara's tenure at the club.
Three and a half years which have seen us go from Grand Final champions, World Club champions etc to third from bottom with falling crowds that show no sign of leveling out.
The past two years have been truly dark and depressing for myself and the thousand or so who go week in week out.
The time for change is now, Christ I don't hold any coaching qualifications but I would put down good money that I could get more out of the current shower of **** then what Steve McNamara or Basil Richards have managed these past 24 months.
Im in the notion that there is too much of a comfort zone currently in place at Odsal where all the bad performances are just swept under the carpet and the same poor performing players picked each week.
I would if given the chance keep but only a handful of players for next season going on what I have had witness and endure during this horrific year.
Menzies, Halley, Nero, Morrison and Lynch are the players who are immune to my criticisms as they have given 110% when out on the field.
The rest I wonder if they know the meaning to the words passion, honesty and pride.
There is just no fight in the team and that is what is most upsetting.
I hope that during the next seven days the players take a good hard long look at themselves and think about the supporters who travel week in, week out and pay good money to only be treated to a gutless and heartless display.

LOL
I'm loving it, if this was happening to leeds you'd be all over it, i mean seriously if leeds were in your situation you'd be having multiple orgasms. Every few hours and would be spending hundreds on tissues. |

What's the big deal?
If you get into the playoffs you're only going to out straight away anyway as nyou have done the previous 2 seasons. |

Seriously though.
For the bulls to have a prosperous future they need either or both:
wealthy backer
odsal sports village
Otherwise I feel the bulls could lose their license within the next 10 years.

How about players who actually play and don't go through the motions, take the money and run?
It's the teams with those who do the little "extra" that seem to be those who are successful. |

Tough $h!t !!
think this proves what everyone always said that once the novelty of 'bullmania' and bouncy castles wears off and the bulls cant just trample their way to victory like they used to do the families got bored and stopped coming which equalled less money to pay wages for huge,colossal battering ram type players.
I think the Bulls are suffering now because of their succes over the last 10 -15 years and if the fans who were celebrating all that success are real fans they will stay with the club till it picks up again - somehow i cant imagine those dancing housewifes and rucksacks full of goodies for the family for the day out at the rugby will be seen around Odsal much in the near future !

The bulls players cant be entirely to be blame though
After all the current crop are uneniably not as high qaulity as the ones they replaced are they?
Quite simply a team capable of winning the championship was replaced by players from the bottom end of the league
Unsurprisingly those players now find themselves at the bottom end of the league.

On your last point though in the current economic climate it really cant be easy for a family of 4 to spend 60 quid on 90 minutes entertainment.
The husband might go but the wife and kids may be staying home. |

The kids have gone off to University now and are interested in Guys not the Paul brothers. Mother doesn't need to go as there are no kids to look after and Dad just writes on RLFans about how it used it be when they were the biggest team in the world. |

cheap season tickets maybe, but not giving away free ones
i applaud them for taking that decision, unlike some clubs who are virtually blackmailing their own fans into paying £60 now so they get a cheaper season ticket next season |

Only true for u12s.
But what if it's true? Offering their own fans better value for money. Shocking  |

A few have, but Macca doesn't seem to like giving them much game time. |

Course they are. Nothing wrong with a club thinking of new ways to further increase revenue, compared to (for example) just letting most fans in for next to nowt.  |
