Well i have just bought my season ticket. On a visa i must say. Ha

Well I may regret saying it - but appointing JK may be the long overdue turning point we have all been praying for.

My patience with AC ran out a few months ago; but credit where credit is due - getting JK is an impressive coup.

JK's speech was clear - taking the (once) mighty Bulls back up to SL would look very impressive on his CV (and, in my view, put him in the Odsal hall of fame).

I have a lot of respect for JK; as a coach; and as a father supporting his son playing the other code - he's a genuinely decent bloke. COYB

I understand why a few are feeling negative and have found other things to do.

I myself stopped going for a few years due to working away and the appalling way the club was run. I didn't go to games and go on forums.

I started again and am now really enthusiastic about the future as I also think Chalmers has pulled one out of the hat here with Kear - but Chalmers still has his communication problems - but I also know many other people who are cr*p at communicating but are good at their job.



My advice to those few who are not going any more and are totally pi88ed off - and I am really not trying to be nasty here, but try taking a total break from any forum or anything to do with the club and take a break and see if your enthusiasm returns. Take a year off otherwise all you do is argue and accuse others all of the time. Is it worth it?

If and hopefully when things actually start getting better then come back and enjoy being a fan again. Again, I say this in in good nature and not as a wind up. Fans can be negative at times but when it gets to negativity 100% of the time maybe a vacation is due.

Having previously said on another thread that after many years as a season ticket holder, I was not renewing this time, I have gone and bought one on the back of the best bit of news we have had in 5 years - recruited a coach who gets the very best out of his players.



I am now genuinely hopeful (if not totally confident) we have hit absolute bottom and the only way is up.



Or to put it another way.....Toovey couldn`t polish a t??d but maybe Kear can make silk purses out of a sows ears....

Good man. That's what this is all about. As a long time supporter who has followed from afar for more than 25 years, I really do believe that YOU the supporters of the Bulls (Northern) are the lifeblood. You will help bring it back to where it was in the late 40s, the early 80s and the SL era. YOU will make the difference. The SL era will come back if you have faith and do what you do do best. Support the club.

As a Bradford lad I know we are often glass half or even three quarters empty, BUT looking at the England (and BBC) set up three weeks ago tells me that is wrong. Bradford IS RL. Keep the faith please. (Burgess, Burgess, Bateman, Whitehead, Gale, Noble, Anderson, Paul,



John Kear will give it everything and do well medium term. He is likely to be successful in getting the Bulls back into Championship and maybe even SL. (Maybe). Personally I think that will take a younger coach with more energy and more money, but for now he IS the man. BACK him. BACK your club. The good times and money will come back when you do. Have faith. Please.

You are correct in only one way. You are narrow minded.

No He's not a lot of Bulls fan will feel that way even now, with the Tribunal hanging over the Club, that could also impinge on getting one or two better players because of the fiscal implications if the Club has to pay out!

We are at the edge of the Woods but not clear of them yet!

What Tribunal?

It's got its own thread Mick.

Do I Cas troll. I've read it again and again and I find no real anger of any sort. A few have some reservation but I see no real nonmosity or bitterness.



So Cas troll can you put up a link to one of these numerous bitter and malicious anti Kear posts if you wouldn't mind.

Did I say all Bulls fans?



Bulls arrogance refers to a section of your fans who did and still do delude themselves regarding the importance of your club. He was the worst the one with the anti troll spray avatar.



I'd love the Bulls back in SL. I'm a pragmatist and as such they have far more value to my team than clubs like Catalan etc. RL is a poor sport we can't afford the loss of 5000 plus paying customers.



However the Bulls myth was built on sand and as such a bit of a fake. There is nothing fake about Kear - we will miss him but I can't deny that left alone he is the Bulls best chance to turn it around - possibly your only chance.



Word of warning, it will be ugly to start with but it will get better.

Not sure which part of Bulls history you mean when you refer to myth.
