    Actually a stunning 450 souls go. Apparently the second poorest support in the National League North. Half the number that Guiseley get and significantly below Farsley Celtic. Not sure how (and why) they keep going? https://www.footballwebpages.co.uk/national-league-north/attendances

    Fair enough. I do know negotiations are on going for Bulls to get a new Stadium. Whether it happens is another story like all the previous attempts.

    It’s a basket case club ….Wont be long before they play at Peel Park .

    A once proud club placed in the hands of wannabes, egotists and probably some downright grifters.

    A lesson for any professional club sport.

    They are by no means the only example of a once proud club going down the tubes Kev, in various sports.

    Well a lot more than their near round ball neighbours, who had an attendance of 238 on Saturday. As the old TV show said ’Drop the Dead Donkey’!

    Would you not say that two teams that play in the same county is a derby ??????

    And the majority of them teams have little or no history and dont come from a big City unlike the Bulls ..............defend it all you want but its pathetic bud

    Featherstone v bulls never has and never will be a Derby

    Halifax and Leeds that's it

    It's neighbouring clubs not every club in the county lol

    Because EFL/EPL football is a truly national game with teams from Plymouth to Newcastle and all points in between. So a game between two Yorkshire teams is an exception to the general rule.
    By contrast, hardly anyone one outside the M62 corridor gives a flying feck about rugby league. Half the pro RL teams are from Yorkshire, so calling every RL game between two Yorkshire teams a derby renders the concept pretty meaningless.

    As a long time supporter of Northern/Bulls i can confirm that although the radio may refer to it a West Yorkshire Derby, i've never heard any Bradford fan refer to a game against Featherstone as a Derby. The real rival derby game is arguably Halifax or Leeds more so in the last few decades. Can't really say Keighley as we hardly played them.
