Yes. A club who’ve played half a season of Championship rugby so far are a safer bet than a club who’ve been consistently in the Championship play off places since 2019 and have built off the back of that, increasing crowds x5 in 8 years, turnover is now into the £Ms, winning at Wembley, full youth structure in place etc etc. I know Oldham are making the right noises and it’s great to see, but other than the rumoured signings of aged SL players, they’ve achieved nothing yet.

I think it’s to suit the stock cars. Bradford need to decide whether Odsal is a rugby ground or a stock car track as it doesn’t appear they can work together properly if it means the main part of a rugby ground has to be sacrificed to suit the track.

No need for that mate...

Makes a change from Fev fans chinning people outside Burton Lane WMC I suppose.

I’m not saying it works, but if you refresh the page then quickly press the X on your browser while it’s reloading, it might pause the subscription overlay appearing so you can read the article. Maybe.

Where have I been bitter? It was Fev fans complaining about York players “goading” despite Fev fans shouting and gesticulating obscenities at them for large periods of the match. But I’m bitter? Give over. The fact is, some Fev fans love to give it out but can’t take it, that’s all I’m pointing out. Anyway, I hope you do well for the rest of the season cos believe it or not, I’ve a lot of time for the people at your club.

Good job the disciplinary panel aren't Fev or York supporters, then it should be a fair outcome. I certainly won't moan if he gets a ban but you lot will lose your minds if he doesn't.

I meant one team appeared to be much fitter in the last 20 minutes, and won despite not playing particularly well or that much better than the other, which is what generally happens in cup matches against SL opposition.

Yes, thanks for that. Although I did put some money your way for the reverse fixture so that evens itself out. as far as I'm concerned. We got beat, although by less than some established SL clubs did. What's your point? We're a Championship side, they're at the top of SL.

Having watched it back a few times it doesn't look particularly bad to me, just unfortunate that Wynne got injured in the process. But if the disciplinary deem it worthy of a ban then fair enough, I won't complain.

I implied it reminded me of a game where one team had superior fitness to the other, which we clearly did cos your lads were blowing in the final quarter. And considering how Fev fans have been for years, it's a bit rich telling a York fan to reign themselves in cos we're doing well.

They should be made to either level it out or play at Odsal so Bradford can have all the Corned Beef Hash money.

Yeah it would have been 24-8

Having watched the game back, we made a lot of mistakes yesterday, could have put 50 on them if we cut out the daft errors. The game reminded me of a SL v Championship game in the cup where the big boys tend be pretty clunky for the most part then pull away in the final quarter. Although I reckon Fev would have had much more energy going into the final 20 minutes if they all stopped waving their arms about after every tackle, it was like watching those inflatable wavy arm men things they have outside dodgy car dealers. Special mention to the Fev fans as well, there'll be some sore arms this morning. Hope they're all feeling OK after all that mean stuff our players did to them as well, all that "goading". Must have been awful.

Hopefully it’s a positive that Taylor Pemberton seemed to be walking around perfectly fine at the game today.
