Watching some great rugby all the way to seeing Leeds beating St Helens at Old Trafford.

I do like a bit of tradition!

Beating Leeds.

Because they are there.

I'd be disappointed if Rhinos fans didn't feel the same about us.
:)

Sorry to disappoint you,but at my age and it goes back along way,well into the 1950s,and from the start of my time watching Bradford weren't on that kind of radar .It was Hunslet ,and Trinity,who we wanted to beat.I saw someone make his debut for Bramley and went on to make 410 appearances for them and still I wasn't keyed up to beat you .Its probably my age but its still not a rivalry to me.Honest!

I am am just looking forward to the start of the season and coming home to see games at headingley easter monday and following friday.
but you and I weve been through that and this is not our fate.
So let us so let us not talk falsely now.

FROM 2004,TO DO WHAT THIS CLUB HAS DONE,IF THATS NOT GREATNESSTHEN i DONT KNOW WHAT IS.

Would love a challenge cup draw of Fev vs Cas, Leigh vs Wakefield, Fax vs Salford, Batley vs Widnes, Sheffield vs London.... Show the championship is at a level with bottom end Super League, and bring in a serious look at P and R


but the sad fact is its miles behind Fev would be well beaten by any SL club I hate the concept that is franchise and SL its knacked our sport its knacked the international calendar and are we any closer to the Aussies are we hell we have fallen even further behind them our game

Looking forward to a decision on the new stadium and a better season with the odd win against one of the big 4 Leeds would be nice a decent cup run with away draws at Featherstone, Leigh and Fax  :laugh:  
Hoping to see the young players like Walshaw,Wildie,Johnson,Armor,Davey.Annakin develop

Apart from that struggling for any real enthusiasm for the game its run by muppets and we have Richard Agar who inspires me with little or nothing   :angry2:

Some of the grammar and basic use of the english language leaves a bit to be desired on here. Perhaps someone could set up special classes..... Thanks for the polite welcome though.It makes a real difference. I think it was Shankly (wrong sport I know) who said "It's nice to be important but it's more important to be nice....."

To be fair to KS he has made the maximum use of his talent and overperforms - never an international player as he is not good enough to hold down a test position but other players with more talent could follow his example of effort.

It feels like a long time since the season ended. August was a long time ago.
I am looking forward to seeing some young players emerging, and for the England and Wales 2013 teams to take strong shape.
I am also looking forward o a huge surge in crowds and interest.
So many SL teams have reasons to be very hopeful. Cas, FC and Cats could all go very well with new coaches/key players in place.

Lewis Jones is regarded by many me included is the finest artisticly gifted player ever to play for the Leeds club he held the goal kicking record 1244,Kevin Sinfield broke that record last season..Lewis Jones holds the club points scoring record 2920, Kevin Sinfield needs about 68 points and He will break that record too.Since those records have stood for 48 years now that is definately not ordinary.Kevin Sinfield has captained the club to 5SUPER LEAGUE TITLES IN 8 YEARS and that is not ordinary either.There is going to be a statue commissioned for another player who many regard as Leeds greatest ever player ,The late great John Holmes.

By the way welcome aboard

Thanks. I have a mate who is a Loiner (not an easy relationship....) -  his view is that, if Mick Nanyn had played exactly the same games, same era etc for Rhinos that KS has, Nanyn would have scored even more points and had a better all round contribution to the team......

YOUR mate is wrong ,but what on earth is it to do with with nany one else, who has nothing  whatsoever to do with the Leeds club to say they te Leeds FANS are wrong to want to commemorate KS,s records at Headingley ?.Lewis Jones probably LEEDSRFL clubs FINEST ever player who held the goal kicking record and was broken by Kevin Sinfield and Jones point scoring record is within 68 points of Sinfield and you are saying its not important .I say its envy.They the usual suspects used to, say the same things about Lewis Jones and of course the Late great John Holmes.,If Nanyn was any where near that level he would have been spoken abou in those terms.

Thats what you get with dreaming about pictures of nice new stadiums, you start to lose your grip on reality and spout nonsense. Give Fev the chance and they would beat Wakey  :cool:

I's nice to realise that any impartial newcomer to the forum can immediately identify the serious defects in education, character and social skills that are exhibited in postings from the Lancastrian board members.
