    Dont trust GA with the transfer window.
    Negative, boring football.
    Don’t trust Rupp to employ a CEO.
    Don’t trust the CEO to employ a decent manager.

    Sparks has to go. He runs the show and the show is sh!t.
    100% he’s the problem.

    genuinely question, is he a Bradford fan?

    Sparks is a rugby man, definitely never been a fan of City

    If Rupp really wants to prove he is to invest for the better in January
    I’d offer the York manager an offer he cannot refuse along with funds in January
    Get an up and coming attack minded manager in and rid of these dinosaur borefests
    Do this before the narrow 3 points is too much to claw back

    We recruited some of the players early in the summer. We looked at a centre-half who was a part of the worst defence in the Football League and thought "Yeah. We'll have some of that." Same with Byrne. We were told by the happy clappers to stop living in the past and to stop thinking about bringing former players back, only for them to cream themselves when we brought Wright back. We repeated the mistake of bringing in another LWB who doesn't want to play there. We didn't bring in anyone to replace or compete with an aging Smallwood until it was too late and Evans can't stay fit. We needed more legs in midfield so we brought in Sarcevic whose legs are starting to go.

    Crap and cheap recruitment. All of them have a say, all of them are culpable.

    Think he is a Featherstone Rugby fan. He used to run their Twitter account.

    Then wound up running a professional football club.

    I'm running out of words to describe how awful Smallwood is. Just try watching him for a few minutes in a game and you'll soon see what an absolute waste of space he is. And to pair him with Sarcevic is verging on insanity. We saw them together in September and it was obvious then we would get overrun if they played together. Both of them are over the hill and we've got Sarcevic for another season. We complain about our defenders and attackers, with some justification, but if you've no midfield you've no chance. Nothing to feed on if you're an attacker and the opposition pouring through at you if you're a defender.

    Is this post sarcasm Kev? If so it’s a good one, if not I’ve no idea how you get us dominated the game.

    It's his dream job. Why can't you just be happy for him?

    TBF you gotta give the recruitment team credit for enticing a league one player in Callum Johnson.

    Said this a few weeks ago Eccy. Stop employing dinosaurs or recently sacked managers.

    Try and tempt a manager who is currently employed and doing a good job. My shout was Lee Bell at Crewe. Adam Hinshelwood at York is a very good shout though

    Those mad few minutes in the first half brought back nightmares of the time Gary Shaw scored a hat trick in 4 minutes 32 seconds for Shrewsbury Town at Valley Parade back in 1990.

    This club needs a winner, someone in the vein of Dave Challinor. Someone who wants to progress up the leagues instead of someone who just merely wants to stay in football.

    Because he either won the job in a raffle or he wrote to make a wish.

    I agree.

    But you know Sparks is in control, he's an absolute wimp, and GA will get the full window before we consider a replacement in February or March.

    The man is as predictable as he is spineless.

    Easy for the keeper because no one challenged him.If the ball is not On Cooks head,he's not interested.
