End of an Era!!!!

Well, today Bradford Northern AKA the Bradford Bulls got relegated from Super League. As an ardent Leeds fan of nearly 40yrs I get no pleasure from this. I loved the local derbies against them. No other team will generate that feeling even though we have often lost over the years to them, sometimes heavily. I suppose we will have to adopt Cas Tigers as our near rivals as Wakefield are not the real deal and the Huddersfield Giants who are a good team are very bland. There is no history between the teams to generate a rivalry.
I hope the Northern(bulls) get promoted back next year at the first attempt.

What's wrong with Wakey? (not that I'm a rugby fan)

Stuffit!! Sad news, mate. I used to barrack for Bradford Northern, Castleford, Featherstone Rovers and Wakefield Trinity 60 years ago. All 4 teams were good in those days.

Hope things improve for 'em all.

Cheers, Bobj.
