Welcome to the NEW RLFANS.COM. After twenty-five years of service, the old site expired over the last few days. To maintain service we have had no option but to make an early switch to the new site which was in development/testing. Some elements of the new site are unfinished, such as; page numbering and quotations. We will fix these minor issues as soon as we can, please bear with us. If you are having problems logging in, please try a different browser or platform, if problems persist then email support@rlfans.com

| Is there a cut off point for deciding if this game will go ahead? Do we have 17 players available and prepared to play? A coach (and a team bus)?

Quote ="ridlerbull"I think I do. I was sat behind a row of 5 or 6 young Huddersfield fans who kept looking enviously behind them at the throng of noisy Bradford fans at the back of the stand. The fact that we are subject to such ire when we are on our knees and on the brink of permanent oblivion demonstrates a key fact: Bradford are a massive club. This isn't arrogance; rather, it is an indictment of how bad fans of clubs like Huddersfield are at being smug, which must surely be rooted in a deep held inferiority complex. Now either Huddersfield has some serious parenting problems and accompanying self esteem issues, or fans have an acute awareness of their own irrelevance. />
There are a few ways that this can be dealt with:
- Actually get some people through the door. It's not straightfoward but that would probably make it seem like people actually give a fsck. />
- Have a prolonged period of success, which would have the added benefit of making Superleague less boring as a sporting narrative. />
- Go about your business with dignity greater than someone turning up to a funeral laughing and eating popcorn. />
Seriously, it's like there's an outbreak of undiagnosed Borderline Personality Disorder or something in Kirklees. The amount of whinging, pi$$ing, b1tch1ng, and moaning is amazing, and contrasts starkly with the sentiments of the Leeds, Saints, Wigan, and Leigh fans of the world, who have been almost entirely unwavering in their well wishing and support of a Bradford club on life support. />
If you want your club to be considered a 'Big Club', act like it. You have nobody to blame but yourselves for your failings.'" />
Unfortunately we were sat in front of some Bulls fans as well. Wayneta and Wayneta, 2 foul mouthed large ladies in Bulls shirts who were in a box> they were horrible and foul, were Fing and blinding until they were warned by a steward to shut it or they were being thrown out for an early trip back to bradford. Hope those fat horrible foul mouthed things never come to the John Smiths again.

I agree with you in regards to these so called ladies. Not getting at your fans but I was sat next to couple who brought a few week old twins to the match. One of the babies did not have any wheadgear on a freezing day. To make things worse the father was drinking cider throughout the game. These weren't young parents they both looked well into their 30s. I wanted to say something but being sat amongst your supporters I feared causing an argument that may have got out of hand. I honestly do not believe the mentality of people like these,including those women.
