    Looks like the spine of our 24/25 team is starting to take shape

    Don't be a drama queen, one person has said they are underwhelmed before your post. I posted facts from a manager who has managed him and some of the Barnsley comments are that they are surprised he's got a three year deal.

    More often than not, football fans judgement on players is right. I think people have the right to question the calibre of a player we've just given three years to.

    In fairness though, we've seen many a terrible player look great on these type of highlight reels.

    Hang on BB that’s precisely what a modern day wing back does and has to do. Some of the stuff on the Barnsley clips is quality. With regards to Curle, he’s a first class hillock , he was a hillock as a player at Reading ., a hillock at Carlisle when trying to b/s the price of Charlie Wyke with fictional clubs chasing him . I don’t have one ounce of regard for the end of a bell.

    No it doesn’t for me at all . Did Eisa play in the CC and gain experience there or was he a journey man for Scunny. No comparison really.

    Look, it's irrelevant who we sign. Wrexham have already been declared league two champions by the press, their fans and two Hollywood superstars. We might as well not bother.

    References to Keith curle as a 'football manager' are tenuous at best.

    That’s under the arch quality manager Keith Curle ….. He has a vastly oversized opinion of himself Dave . Sacked by Hartlepool when he left them 1 point above the relegation zone.

    Different opinion you get shot down.
    Let's hope your faith is right.

    Costelloe was also a championship player as well somehow.

    Be good to see a pacy left back who can also play further forward. I've no problem with the so called versatile tag

    A bit of Championship experience and spent a few years at a good club in Barnsley.

    I look forward to seeing him in action.

    We were so pedestrian last season.
    I know nothing about Clarke but it would appear articles on line suggest the young lad apparently isn't short of pace something sadly lacking in our present contracted squad.
    Hopefully we will get to witness this attribute next season.
    Welcome to Bradford City Clarke let your feet do the talking and get this Senior out of his seat.
    Good Luck.

    You know what I really hope the smug Daffodil eating taffs fail big time.

    Reading up on him this seems like an Adam Chicksen type. Moments of brilliance, potential to be half decent but on the whole bang average.

    Probably just a utility, squad filler though.
