    This team selection and formation was a disgrace in a must win game. Bowyer has managed to take what was left of the fight and pride out of what is left of the season

    Apart from the loan players going back, how do you get rid of the players still under a nice edin contract, they are going to walk away from a nice little earner?
    Skint club stuck with alot of dreck next season.

    I’ve never felt so sad about what has happened to my club in over 50+ years. By god I’ve seen some crap but this lot takes the biscuit. The club is in an absolute mess/shambles. Never seen such weekly gutless performances for so long a time. Can’t believe it!

    Two terrible teams. Neither deserved a win.
    I didn’t see a foul on O’Brien, to me it looked like he missed a sitter.

    We did nothing and deserved nothing more than a point. Not sure what the formation was meant to achieve but all it did do was isolate our best recent performer in Butterfield.

    Our supporters at the end were an embarrassment trying to get across to theirs.

    Oh, and one of our own supporters made a go for me at the end for making a comment on how bad we were.

    Great day.

    I'm sure Stefan wants out of our club just as much as some fans do, let's wait and see what the closed season brings, Stefan may have to take a big hit in his finances if he wants to get rid of Bradford City Football Club.

    They had over 20 shots. They deserved it far more than we did.

    To be fair we sounded a joke apart from the defence, clutching at straws expecting a late pen after getting absolutely bossed by a shit Oxford side.

    They absolutely deserved it more than we did, but I still thought they were poor.

    My bets on the bottom four including them and Wimbledon survive.

    'Rupp has a responsibility to sort this shit show with serious backing next season. I hope he lives up to his promises.'.

    Really? Grow up. Why would he? if you seriously believe he is going to throw even more money at this utter basket case of a club, you are seriously deluded. We are down and we will finish bottom of a very poor league. Thousands will not renew (even at that price it is shit value for money), sponsors will disappear in droves and we will really struggle to stay in the League. I can see non league football and oblivion on the (near) horizon.

    For a brief moment this morning I thought about going today. Fecking glad I didn't and will certainly find something better things to do with my Saturdays. Meanwhile, Payne counts his dosh. Bowyer walks away at the end of the season (we didn't much from the Grayson scenario then?) and the club is utterly rudderless, skint and........................need I go on?

    EVERY decision this club has made in the last two seasons has been completely the wrong one. This is NOT a professional sports club. I am embarrassed, whereas once (and fairly recently) I was proud and thought we had something special going on.

    I watched on I follow and wasn’t a pen in a million years. We were truly dreadful. Oxford weren’t much better. A half decent team would have hit us for 6 today. We’re gone

    Credit where it’s due, you’re right in that the back 4, O’Donnell and Akpan were the only one to come out with any credit.

    Any comment yet from Bowyer? Also, any videos of what happened?

    Unless these lot get their heads out of their ar$e$ then I'm done for this season. Come back next season when we might have a team that tries and is worth supporting because this shower are hopeless. Poor team, poor tactics, poor formation. Its just awful.

    Sorry to all those who went today but I'm just glad I didn't spend 4-5 hours and £60 making the effort.

    Being relegated before the end may give us time to begin to sort next season and get a head start for next season.

    Whoever we want as manager we have to get it done early and give them an idea of their budget for next season. They can then being talking to players who will become free agents and make decisions on our players. At the minute it’s still all short term

    Let's give Reece Staunton a run of games. Maybe Maltby deserves some time as well. May as well play our own kids who will at least try.

    How does a man who has made hundreds of millions, get so dramatically shafted by a man pretending he knows football.
