    I agree. If we are serious about promotion this season, however we dress it up, dropping 4 points against two other promotion seeking teams isn't helpful to our cause. Six points from the last 15 tells a particular story.

    As of today, we are currently 9 points off the automatic promotion spots .. and 10 points off the automatic relegation spots. Phew!

    I'm surprised Fordy hasn't clocked it yet. He's probably off with the dancers or summat.

    He'll be off making more money for himself and won't have the time to deal with such mundane issues.

    Bradford is on the western edges of the Pennines. Some parts of the district are high, like Queensbury.
    However travelling over the Pennines can be quite challenging.

    Cant see us winning this. High wins to catch rod out, cold so the manby pambies won't fancy it. No strikers. I'm going 3.0 defeat with poc getting sent off.

    I think you're right. He's more of a strategy guy I reckon. Hand waver, hands all over the shop while he's talking.

    Thankfully Angol is fit, get into these anything less than 3 points will be terrible. But it is City after all…

    Pleasantly surprised to see Angol fit. He was the last of 3 injured players I was expecting to see. Nothing less than 3 points will be good enough.

    Seven points from the next two or Adams is out.

    Stronger starting line up than I was expecting, but weak bench.

    However, the starting eleven should have too much for Scunny, surely?

    Can someone do a welfare check in on @StaffordBantam@StaffordBantam. I think he's been drinking or eating something particularly potent looking at his prediction!

    Yep. Arguably as strong as we could be. Thank goodness Watt is dropped - not because he's a poor player, but he needs to regroup and hopefully come back a better player.

    It’ll give him a wake up call and he’ll realise his level is non league

    I admire your pessimism / realism (to be edited post match)

    Watt playing his usual Hollywood passes in this weather would have been a nightmare. Sensible tactic to bench him.

    Probably won’t stop the rest of the team hoofing it though!
