| Quote Pumpetypump="Pumpetypump" We left Odsal because on top of the rent we also had to pay all maintenance of the ground which is rumoured to be 300k per annum. It doesn't feel like we can win. We stick at Odsal and go bust again because it's unaffordable, or we get berated for leaving and remaining solvent for a change.'"
Your only 7 miles away from Odsal, stay at Dewsbury and play in SL. It was OK for TWP to be 3,000+ miles away wasn't it?? You should offer your club to take their place for the rest of the season?.
I'm serious here, I was at the Bradford.v.Leeds Cup game, fantastic day.......How Superleague misses the Bulls......

| If this were true re Toronto, wouldn't there be more reports from other journalists, not just one who seems to have a penchant to only report negative Toronto news?

One season I went to all three Leeds & Bradford derbies....
Bradford.v.Leeds 22,843
Leeds.v.Bradford 21,225
Leeds.v.Bradford 20,220
last time I went to the Derby Bulls were down and out of Superleague and struggling and it was a Challenge cup game, all pay and set to be a walkover.
Bradford.v.Leeds 10,256

No He got the exclusive from the player acting as spokesperson. Here we go.......

So that's why super league need the bulls, on the back of three(3) selective attendances between them and the rhino's, according to your logic then Hull KR and Wigan Warriors should be exempt from relegation.
While on the subject of the rhino's, it will be interesting to see if any of their glory boy supporters will stay faithful now the peacocks are back in the premier league having abandoned them for the then new found success of the rhino's.

Yes, and when that is the case it is reported as an exclusive. They make a special note that it is an exclusive, this article did not.
Do some critical thinking.

You don't know much about the demographics of both Leeds Rhinos Fans and Leeds United fans do you, loads of Cas Fev Wakey fans are LUFC fans Leeds utd are a regional side massive fan base right across the country, York, Selby, Harrogate Wakefield met, Rhinos attendances wont be affected by Utd, the Rhinos where still the biggest Attended team in British Rugby Last time utd were in the premier league and champions league.
Sadly RL as an attendance problem across the game thats a real issue, but thats another story.

Leeds United have a fairly healthy fan base in Hull fwiw. Mainly guys in 40s and 50s who grew up with a very good Leeds team. Think Liverpool are the main team colours around the town even before recent success?Then the long suffering Hull City fans who draw in both KR and FC suppprters.
Will Citys and Huddersfield Towns recent woes swell the local RL teams crowds? I suppose if a fan supports both Leeds Rhinos and Leeds United then finances might dictate only buying 1 season ticket? Personally im quite keen to see how Leeds fare in Premier League?

If both Leeds Utd and Leeds Rhino's fans do what exactly, don't use big words if it confuses you.
There must be ten million Man Utd fans in this country but they don't go and watch them they're simply armchair fans for various reasons, like distances and no available seating, this isn't the case at Elland Rd who are a regional side with a fairly large fan base not a massive one as you imply, which rather proves the point when they could not fill their stadium in the championship, these closet Leeds Utd fans you mention, what follow Cas, Fev, Wakey don't go and watch Leeds Utd they watch Cas, Fev and Wakey, this isn't the issue here anyway, what I said was with a hint of sarcasm if you hadn't noticed was that now Leeds Utd are back in the big time there is a very good chance of those glory seekers what left Utd to go and watch the rhino's when they started winning being lulled back to football then your boast of being the best attended side in super league would be an empty one, I can understand to some point your touchiness on the subject as RL crowds are increasingly diminishing every year added to that your rather large debt for ground improvements which at the moment you can't service through either your attendances or your corporate side of things, keep your chin up Utd will probably go straight back down anyway.
