Langley signs new Bulls deal

Correspondent

Bradford forward Jamie Langley has signed a new three-year deal with the Bulls.

Langley, 26, is in his testimonial year with the club after joining from Normanton Knights in 1999 and is approaching his 200th appearance for the club.

He said: “There was never any doubt I wanted to stay.I’ve not had my mind on anything else, it’s always been firmly on Bradford. It’s been a tough year both emotionally and physically and it would be easy to turn your back but I’m not that kind of bloke.

“I can’t wait to work with Mick Potter next year and I’m confident we can be a force to be reckoned with.”

Potter will take over for 2011 after the departure of Steve McNamara, who has left to take over the England national side.

Bradford chairman Peter Hood said: “I was never in any doubt Jamie would commit to the club. His signing is another part in building the picture for next year. He is a very important player for us.”
