Well they may be playing god awful but I'll still go and cheer if there's cause (and god i hope there is).



Staying away hurts the club financially and as a supporter it doesn't make sense to want to do that.

he worked as a scout for the sydney roosters for years asim, i think he knows a good player from a bad one

How come none of them ever signed for Souths?

I certainly will be voting with my feet ... by trying to get to more games than usual.



Call me a sucker for punishment but the club needs more support not less

I think casual supporters are quite good at discerning the general direction in which a team is heading. Many will have watched the Leeds match on Sky, appreciated it for the great effort that it was, but not seen it as the start of better things. That will have been confirmed by the result at Wakey.



In 2004 it became clear very early in the season that the balance of power had shifted to Leeds. Achievements in 2003 soon came to mean little to the casual fan.



By contrast in 1996 it was obvious that the club was the club was moving forwards. There was a feelgood factor which even the victory over Leeds last week couldnt create. Attendances will not recover until there is a general feeling of optimism about the club.

Despite how badly we are playing at the moment, I could never stop going to see the lads play. I couldn't go to either of the Catalans games this year due to financial circumstances, and that alone had me all over the place with much anxiety.



Rugby League is my world, if I had my way, I'd be attending 2/3 games a week, but for obvious reasons (Like family commitment etc...) that isn't the case.



Bradford to the end, through the good times and the bad times.



Sure I can be a sore loser and often I will talk crap when we lose, because it hurts. Usually the following day I tend to regret some of the comments I've made.



It would be the ultimate dream if we were to be sitting at the top of the league every season, but let's face it, there's (now) 13 other clubs out there trying to their best to keep their game on the right track.



Each week I live in hope that our turn will come, and that's the hope that keeps me alive during these (many) dark times.





So to turn my back on the club would be too much like betrayal and I wasn't made to betray anyone, let alone the team I have supported for so long............





What's the next step for those that are voting with their feet ?



.......................Deciding on what club to follow instead

Half right. When my washing machine is playing up I get shut and replace it. I tried leaving it for a year or two but it didn't fix itself.

Perhaps you were trying with your right foot?

Not read all the points, but the worst thing that could be done at the moment is not turn up, crowds are desperately low and needs to change. Perhaps changes need to be made but club needs its fans behind it.

When mine plays up I try to fix it.



Then I swear at it.



Then I kick it (and hurt my foot)



Then I go out to the garage and look for that bloody great lump hammer...







Not suggesting that provides a model for how to solve our present problems, but it must have potential?

This is what a lot of people don't seem to grasp, I understand all the frustrations, I share them, but if the fans stop turning up the club stops, simple. (although even with the results and endless navel gazing on here average attendance this year at home is still over 11,000) We need to back the club by turning up still - you dont have to be a cheerleader or anything, just please dont think its only worth turning up if we're going to win, thats the easy bit of being a supporter. You need to turn up because its your club and we might win, and even this week as unlikely as it most certainly is, its not impossible for us to get a result.
