If we wanted to see how far we have progressed?, we will get the answer, as Ilkley says avoid a drubbing, and get a big crowd, no injuries. Up the Fax.
My Humble Opinion Only - let the knockers begin.

Looks like we are sure to be in round 7! I think this is a bridge too far. I think we will get a drubbing but it will be great to one of the top British teams at the shay. They will be far too strong and fast for us but lest all get down the Shay and cheer on the blue and white.

Last time I saw Fax play Saints it was at Knowsley Road where we got smashed by 60+points to 0, must have been early 2000’s. Hope we can avoid that kind of beating again, and no injuries.

Should bring enough cash in to enable us to add some quality to the squad which is great.
Its also the second time in recent years we have made Bradford miss out on a big game with Saints which is nice.

Already looking forward to this one and like as already been said hopefully we can get a good crowd which should boost the coffers to bring in some more players. If we can give them a good game it should be a good day for the club. They really need to give this match a big push as a club to generate as much interest as possible.

So the game will be played on a friday night and on viaplay. This will lower the crowd for the game but all being well we will still get a good turn out from both set of fans.
