    When any organisation is failing it starts at the top, yet some of our fans won’t have it. It’s like Morrisons failing nationwide and sacking a team leader in Girlington.

    Oh come on! Look the sooner Bradford City fans can understand we are shite the better! The team is crap. End off. We need quality signings in Jan and the summer.

    im just clutching at straws mate. The players were fully behind him before but that performance tonight was back to the rubbish of old and nothing like Swindon onwards.

    Only way that would happen is new owners.

    I fully expected defeat tonight everything pointed towards it the architects of our improved form were missing.
    In the same way I think we will have a good win on Saturday

    Fair points.
    Either he didn’t see the issues in the first half or chose not to do anything about them.
    Both those options are very worrying in their own right.

    I think it all looked worse from the away fans lofty view.
    You could see everything going wrong before it actually did.
    Also noticed their player holding on to Wilson to stop him blocking the shot for the first goal, very sneaky.
    Have had a good laugh reading some of the comments, gallows humour indeed.

    I agree it's been cringeworthy to see underpeforming players backing him for job.

    Give it to our mate it's easier for us

    It could have been 8 -1 tonight and no one would have argued. And you mention the p word. Deluded pal.

    Wins in the efl cup don’t get you promoted. It certainly is all about how we recover on Saturday, but even you can’t be happy at losing 4-1 to MK Dons, fans are well within their rights to say that performance was shite.

    Why is there never any talk/questions about our non playing striker Derbyshire.

    If he had any respect he'd just retire

    Another disasterous signing to add to the collection in this squad

    I think McDonald better worry about his playing career if the last few games he’s played in is anything to go by if we get a new manager.

    If Sparks brings in someone who is not a natural successor to possession-based 4-2-3-1, we might as well be a factory owner that decided he wanted to manufacture toys, but on a whim suddenly deciding he's going to make curtains instead.

    That's about as much sense as Sparks' previous appointments have made flip-flopping from one extreme to the other and praying for it to magically work somehow, but yeah, we still refuse to consider how detrimental it is not having a footballing identity.

    MK Dons sacked Graham Alexander because he wasn't a fit for their DNA. They brought in someone that was, and look how easily the players picked it up. That's because they know what they're supposed to be doing and all their players have been signed for having quick passing and the ability to maintain possession.

    What are we going to be playing when Sparks rolls the dice on the next manager?

    The good news is City are playing the team rooted to the bottom of L2
    The bad news is Sutton are on a poor run, just like the Dons were till we played them

    Of course but it’s not a doomsday scenario. It’s one game with a weakened team. People go over the top on both extremes

    Not me,my extreme has built up over the last few years in this god awful league and the start to this season with poor signings.The performance tonight was shocking and it could easily have been 6,7,8 or 9 goals for MK but I’ll be back supporting us on Saturday and the prediction from you park of a good win.

    I expect you to clap much harder on Saturday than you did tonight.
