That Sam was rolling around on the floor like he'd been shot

Commented on how Sam fell to the floor as if he had been shot. To be fair to Sam he got right back up after the tackle and didn't try to milk it. So I dont know what Thaler was on about.

Apart from that though I thought the ref had a good game yesterday, showed some pace to keep up with Charnley in his 2nd try and even got stuck in to split up Hock and Elima :Lol:

He got right back up and tried to carry on playing until Thaler stopped play!....

I seem to remember a few bugs crawled out of their woodwork back when they were Grand Finalists as well.

The second year they beat us at OT, my wife and I were on a tram afterwards with a shed-load of them and - to my surprise actually - they were far and away the most loutish, ignorant and intimidating bunch of RL fans I've ever had the misfortune to encounter. The bad old days at Leigh and Warrington had nothing on that bunch. Thanks to that experience, I feel no regret whatsoever that they've slipped to oblivion.

Just emphasises what a sad club the self proclaimed "Peoples Club" have become. No wonder they can't attract a half decent crowd to the Landfill stadium

Only you lot of arrogant know it alls and Leeds will avarage more than Bradford at home this season!

O'Loughlins was worse.

Not much in it for me!

Hit ball/shoulder and went up! Looked worse because Sam and Sykes were at full pelt. Penalty given and ref got it right no need for a card, would be suprised if he was banned. Slow mo made it look worse

Has for the Fans clapping and cheering, well thats upto them they didnt really have much to cheer!

Yeah because they were literally giving your season tickets away in cereal boxes! Lets see what you're attendances are like when they are full price like the majority of Super League.

At them prices being 3rd highest isnt much to celebrate!

When it came to paying for cup tickets not many fancied it did they!!

Wasn't even a high tackle, looked bad when I first seen it but he clearly got Sam on the shoulder.

Yes, that's exactly what he did. I appreciate that you, understandably, probably haven't watched it back - but I have.



He didn't milk it - see above.

I couldn't believe that Thaler actually said that when I watched it back. Completely inaccurate, and not a little out of order.



Chest? Try shoulder. On balance I agree that a penalty was a fair call though.

Its a good job no-one has statistics on average away attendances then isn't it ? cos then, you'd be bottom.

Bradford fans actually all jumped up when he hit him round the neck. terrible.

As for Sykes, he is the biggest coward in super league. He only touched the ball once for the rest of the match.

It's strange seeing such poor players playing for Bradford, the likes of Sykes and Jeffries are just awful awful players. Oh how the mighty have fallen.

Aye, I used to poo myself when we were playing the Bulls.

That North stand was full to the brim in 2001 as well. 5k away fans to just 50.

Another made up statistic that could be quite easilly be proven as b*ll*cks!

God you lot love romanticizing, most Bulls fans like me didn't think it was a full on high tackle (as replays have proven) they where cheering becous it was the first time in the match a Bulls player showed any enthusiasm in the tackle!

But you lot carry on thinking only Wigan players put in textbook tackles, its quite funny watching you lot try strugle to take the moral high ground

How the mighty do fall, but don't worry we will be back, probably won't take as long as you lot did getting back though

Don't get me wrong, I hope you do get to the level you used to be at (well not quite that good

), it took us a good few years though. Bradford are a club I've always quite liked, not sure why, they broke my heart at Old Trafford!

Twice

HISTORY





just like your missing glory hunters or should that be fans last night.

He was responding to what I said

Sam definately wanted to play on. If Sykes hadn't kept hold he would have been away after the hit, it was as though he didn't feel it. Couldn't believe what Thaler said when I watched it back. He is one tough hombre as Stevo would say, but I fear one day he will get hurt bad.

You know i can recall on many occasions during our glory years and wondered while playing your lot at odsal, why the rooley lane end was so sparce of the so called best supported team in the country, even when you where richest club in the world in the 80's and early 90's, you've just hit the nail on the head!
