Please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please.

Biggest game of the year.

Until next week's if we win.

I'm doubtful. Very doubtful. But even more hopeful.

13 wins apiece hopefully means this will be a close contest -lies- a Giants' capitulation. I'm still not convinced they weren't over-achieving topping the table as much as they were under-achieving while tobogganing down it.

Top of the table Giants might have been over-achieving, but not by as much as they were when freefalling down it again

Giants with some form, momentum and a stable team says a home win to me

Could be an enthralling game this. I'm probably going to say a Giants win but in a tight match.

The giants have turned the corner I think - a few weeks ago we'd have lost last week to Salford, but dug in for a win. They are playing and defending as a team again and I'd say on paper we have far too much pace for the Bulls

At home on a firm pitch I'd say we will have too much for Bradford. Then again I thought the same about Wakey and that didn't go at all well lol

Nick Scruton and Elliot Kear aren't in the squad, and are presumably fit. Olivier Elima isn'tin the squad but can't be too badly hurt.

John Bateman's back.

We look strong for the end-of-season run-in.

Bulls by twenty.

Six a piece.

Good game this. Poor handling though. Very greasy conditions.

6-12 Bulls.
On 13/2/2013, Hull City's owners the Allams, released a statement in their position as the owners of the KC Stadium Management Committee. One line in this statement read as follows....

"The SMC's principal responsibility is to remain neutral"

Luke Gale scores and converts. 6-18 now

Let's hope Luke Gale develops a taste for scoring at the Galpharm!

Giants announce season ticket offer for 2013. Bulls fans might want to sign up to see their local SL club play.

Go on, fill us in. A pound in each and bring a mate in for free?
Astute analysis from a Wigan fan:

Rumour going around Headingley that Wire will have to play the second half with 12 men.

It seems that they forgot to bring the half time oranges, and Solomona ate Chris Bridge instead.

Don't know why he was hungry, as he looked as though he had eaten the whole youth team before the game started.

Huddersfield must have dropped the ball 30 times in this match.
