    I've seen it more than a few times mate. One of my 10 favourite games.

    Better go tell Ryan Lowe that he can't get promoted playing 3-5-2 and last season was all in his imagination and whilst you are at it tell Danny Cowley you can't win league 2 playing 4-4-1-1 or 4-2-3-1. Also go tell Paul Tisdale he can't use 3-5-2, 3-4-3 and 4-3-3 to get promoted then you can complete your journey by telling Micky Mellon that he won't get promoted using 4-1-4-1.

    At some point you have to realise football has moved on and very few teams play 4-4-2 week in week out even in league 2.

    Is he actually saying no side can get out of L2 playing that way, or City can’t get out of L2 playing other than 4-4-2? Bearing in mind, he’s trying to shoehorn Doyle into the team as one of his 3, I tend to agree with him.

    It is possible to gain promotion playing other formations, BUT you need to sign the players needed.

    He's saying Bradford City as a club have had all their success with 4-4-2 so it's the way we should play and should forget how Bowyer played at Blackpool as we've not had success with other formations in the past.

    Maybe if we’d played a few different formations we may not have been shit for most of the last 110 years

    Actually we played 2-7-1 in 1911 hence the narrow victory in the replay.......but we won. ;)

    Just seen a few tweets that the home fans were chanting about Robinson. Not sure what was said but sure it wasn’t positive.

    To be honest I’m surprised it is first time it has come up, probably due to us being so poor last year other fans didn’t bother

    I only saw him for the 60 mins against Liverpool but he looked class... he could well be our Gary Jones for this year

    The only player we haven't really replaced yet is Lewis O'Brien. Still lacking in the central midfield.
