Despite the self denial and pathetic wailing and a sycophantic media that acompanied the old clubs demise I am delighted at this news.

A strong and above all HONEST Bradford on the up has far more offer SL than silly clubs like Toronto.

I hope the Bulls return in a few years with a side they can afford and HONEST ambitions to do well.

Their fans who've stuck with them deserve something good. Hope they continue to rebuild.

Imagine if your club went through what they did, it's a horrible thought, I want back the Bulls of the mid 90s.

A belated well done Bradford and all the best for 2019.

Fantastic that the Bradford Bulls Club are promoted to Championship RL, their fans are a great bunch too .....
Onwards & upwards *hope to see you home & away next year*

What spending money they don't have and thus buying title dishonestly - not for me thanks.

You will do don’t worry my friend

As a Leeds fan I really hope Bradford kick on from here, they've done it tough the last few years and the fans who have stuck with them deserve a load of credit. I hope they are being sensibly run and return to SL, the Leeds Bradford games are some of my favourite ever RL memories.

No you’d prefer to go bust after running up a massive tax bill with f*** all to show for it.

Buying mediocrity dishonestly.

Also Bradford went into administration after missing the play offs three years on the bounce. It was a long time after winning the title.

Keep fibbing to yourself love, it's what you do best - funny isn't it, despite what you say our 'mediocrity has us in a far better place than you are at present.

When did Wakefield go bust? We've been in admin twice and a CVA that was completed but never went bust and have never renaged on a tax bill - get your facts right pal.

Anyway for sensible Bulls fans, well done

Hope Bradford carry on the good work and get back to super league were they belong used to love going their in the old days does the rfl still own the ground or did they sell it on

Love banter me . Reckon we’ve still got some work to do before we are handing out beatings to you lot again but we’re going in the right direction.

Well done on another good season too!

No the council own the ground. The rfl own the lease and sub let it to Bradford.

Michae carter and Neil Hudgell are buying it. You’d think they’d prefer to spend 700k on their own respective squads if that’s the sort of cash they have lying around but there you go.

What buying the ground or lease

Theory was it was done to stop Bulls getting it on the very cheap.

Well done to the Bulls. Hope to see you back at the top (just behind Wakefield of course) soon.

The mid 90s side was coached by Brian Smith and then Potter, as far as I'm aware there wasn't much of a problem then, maybe thinking of the mid noughties or should that be naughtys?



i.e. the time of the Leeds/Harris episode, the breaking of the salary cap due to 'media rights' issues, etc

Cheers for the comments guys. Hopefully we are now being run correctly and not boom or bust men. It has been tough but yesterday was a great feeling that maybe, just maybe we are starting an upward trend. Still a long way to go. The championship is going to be unbelievably competitive next year.

There was a fantastic photo yesterday that John Bateman put on of him, Elliot Whitehead, the Burgess twins and Donaldson all watching from the coral stand. All Bradford academy graduates. It gives me hope that depsite all the off-field problems we've had, we are still one of the best at developing young talent. Add to those names, Jake Trueman, Cameron Scott, Luke Hooley who will all be playing SL reguarly for their respected SL clubs soon. we always have a good conveyor belt, but don't get to see the benefits because the man running the club tries taking short cuts. We've again some great prospects coming through, all we have to do is make sure our sums add up , no short cuts, continue to bring these exciting young players through, and hopefully we'll earn the right to play in SL again.

You can add Reiss Butterworth too now signed for Huddersfield.

Appreciate he’s from Crofton vasty but they’ve signed him from the Bulls.

Enjoy your trip to Canada

At close to about £1k each you can shove that right up your jumper

Hopefully promoted next season n’all!
