    Each to their own. I think WOAP is terrific. I really enjoy the level of analysis they give. I’m always amazed at how much detail they pick up and remember. They give insights that I often don’t pick up on during the match. I think we’re very lucky to have this forum, which I consider to be amongst the best in the EFL, and WOAP.

    Not knocking it , depends on my mood at the time I suppose more than its quality? I think the point is rather, it’s never light hearted . Sometimes we like a laugh .

    Not knocking the people that contribute or the people that like their content, I prefer a more comedic and light hearted approach, even though it's Leeds the square ball is a very good podcast.

    I did notice that Jamie Raynor said at the end of the podcast that they are hoping to give Bradford City coverage as and when we can. The club only signed a one year deal with Radio Leeds and I wonder if there’s some doubt from City about renewal. I hope we carry on with Radio Leeds as they provide superb coverage. I always remember ex CEO David Baldwin once telling me he would like to scrap local radio coverage and make supporters buy the club i follow coverage which they would do in house. Leeds Utd once tried that under Ken Bates leadership and the Leeds fans I worked with said it was appalling and amateurish. They quickly went back to Radio Leeds coverage.

    Jamie knew about Sarcevic’s option before the retained list was released

    So did we two seasons ago.

    The giveaway word “ Initial”

    Bradford City AFC is delighted to kick off its summer recruitment drive with the signing of seven-time promotion winner Antoni Sarcevic, on an initial two-year deal.

    Raynor is fed info anyway and always couches them in caveats . Let’s remember the programme was recorded 24 hours before the list was made public , very very likely under an embargo . Listen to his words Silver.

    Good podcast that's got better as it's gone along, Mark Bower gives some excellent balance and professional insight.

    The only slight annoyance is that Hudson still talks absolute drivel and his football knowledge is incredibly poor for someone who supposedly watches the game.

    I'm only a fan but I can tell you if we played 442,433 or 532.

    Hudson not only doesn't know the basics of football, he's seemingly not even interested in them.

    True but Jamie knew he had taken the option

    He “speculated” based on what the club had told him under embargo.

    I find Bower to be boring and monotone, but this adds to the mix and they all contribute to a great podcast.

    Why are you acting like it's some kind of shock that a sports journalist knew something before we did?

    The forums okay. Just needs a few more adverts.

    Can’t agree , tbh. His professionalism, as opposed to a fan, shines through . Those that know what they are talking about sometimes give that air , which as you rightly say gives a brilliant balance .

    Give me him or Morais over Kiwomya or Jones any day of the week. Jones knows his stuff but I just don't enjoy listening to a scouse accent.

    I pay a tenner a year and see no adverts. Well worth it to support the forum.

    I like Morais too but don't really care for Jones. Especially when we aren't playing well and he whines on about how good we were back in his day
