    Calling our Fans
    Calling out Sparks

    Making out he’s the best thing ever!

    Seriously, a joke! Get him out

    Ryan, i know it is not an easy decision but this man has to go. There are financial implications i know, but these will pale into insignificance against the number of loyal fans who are losing all hope and interest with this delusional arrogant plonker at the club.
    We are about so much more than this, and I am certain you also get this and know it's true. Adams is killing all unity - you only have to listen to Levi's interview to get an honest assessment of where we are - its just nowhere near good enough.
    Stefan needs to be made 100% clear that his investment is being badly damaged and if he really cares he needs to authorise the removal of Adams asap.
    I know there are other City fan who have different opinions to this as Wetherby did last week but in my eyes Adams is the opposite of everything I want at my football club.
    Sorry its a bit of a rant

    I do not believe that for one minute. Just more spin from Adams to make the very last minute poor signing look better than it was. Did the guy actually do anything today.

    One day I hope to meet you, buy you a beer. This season is a missed opportunity.

    Sad reality is there is only one player id keep and he isn't even ours. When you've got two former league 2 promotion and league cup finalist winning players calling Adams out says it all.

    I wasn't impressed by them. Just that they looked like they had more of a game plan and looked like they knew what they were doing on the pitch. And yes their slowing down of the game was also noted.

    Well when you start turning in the fan base you really are asking for bother ............ bad enough that Sparks may have to try and sell season tickets with him in charge even worse that’s he’s having a go at folk that are spending there hard earned money in that dross ............. seriously think things could turn nasty at Oldham next week :(

    Complete shit show today. Our midfield was abysmal. All clogged up together in the centre. No Width, No creativity. No Spark

    How the actual feck can you justify sitting back for an entire half at home? an doing more or less the same in the second half

    we we’re losing yet We had everyone in our own penalty box whenever Exeter had a corner

    Those that said that Adams was a counter attacking manager. HOW? Every time we do get the ball on the break, we pass backwards. You dont see a single player running forward into space. They all just stand where they are and ball watch

    The only pace in this team comes from Eisa an Verham. They are both injured. So what does Adams do? He gets A winger who likes the ball to feet an has no pace

    I noticed this earlier on in the season an its becoming more apparent yet again. If Vernam does not play. We are fecked. As we have no one that can play wide (Daly an Walker both prefer to play in the middle, an once again no sign of Lord Luton)

    He’s lost the fans, he’s lost the dressing room an now he’s ultimately lost our respect. Adams out

    Btw Exeter looked like a bang average side which sums up how bad we really are .............. they should have seen us off more easily than the 1-0 score line suggests ............ honestly I ain’t seen one team down at VP that have impressed me this season which just shows that yet again we have wasted another chance to get out of a pee poor league :(

    You could see Walker holding his leg but then why wouldnt a manager replace an injured attacking midfielder with another when we had Callum Cooke on the bench. Instead he throws on Theo Robinson.

    Fair comment mate, but deep down is Ryan the right man to make the next appointment, we all
    wanted Ryan to be successful as that would suggest he made the right call and Adams was the right man unfortunatly so far that has not been the case and his past decisions are questionable with regards managrial appointments.

    Agree. There were absolutely bang average. how they missed that cut back second half I’ll never know.

    it’s embarrassing a team that bad is fourth and we’re stranded in midtable, going nowhere.

    what a cesspit of a division.

    Being CEO of Bradford city at this present time is a poison chalice, a job that i would not want for any money.
    Do we stick or twist, can we afford to keep Adams , with the possible loss of ticket revenue next year, due to his poor performance as manager. Can we afford the probable £400, 000 for his remaining contract
    Again another managerial appointment that is not working at city, i am at a total loss why so managers with good records are total flops at our club. I am not having the funding bullshit, our playing budget is bigger than most in the division and id wager some in league one.

    Adams is in big trouble if we lose at Oldham. Away fans are the most vociferous in our fanbase and with Oldham being such a local fixture I do fear for him.

    It’s depressing enough being an isolated southerner, tuning in via iFollow and having a read and the odd comment on here, and I’m not even watching the shite in person.

    Going to my first game this season for Northampton away as it’s fairly local and was planning to take my boy to his first City game. Might have to leave him with the other half for the day, if we’re as bad as we sound…

    2 home wins in 16 in all competitions. That's a poor show.

    Rupp out.

    Have you heard anything RE that figure of 400k to pay him off or just guessing?

    we’re gonna lose 4-5k ST holders I think. Not based on anything but feeling. If ST’s are £250 and we lose 2,500 adults that’s £625,000 in lost revenue, plus another £75,000 lost if 1500 kids at £50/ticket give up

    The club is a rudderless ship Dave. Literally going round in circles.
