    When the final whistle went we didn't stick around so cant comment on the Doyle situation, but for effort during the game he gave his all IMO.
    He is wasted at Bradford City best thing for both parties would be to let Swindon take him back, although looking at today's score line do they want him back.

    Yeah but our goalie had 75% of that 53% due to the amount of back passes. :cool:

    Not sure they have, but certainly with Bowyerball it's a no-go and that potentially goes for the play offs too.
    He's becoming toxic, Tuesday a defining game for him imo

    Was saying this at half time, i was ridiculed by some around me. You guessed it, humble pie for all those around me at the end. I said ages ago this had McCalls second season written all over it and thats exactly whats happening. That today ranks as one of the most painful performances i've had to endure, not one solitary positive came out of that today, not one. 90 minutes of humiliation after 45 minutes of it against Scunthorpe.
    Where's that excuse for an apologist Park Bantam tonight? Gone into hiding i expect. Can't wait for him to show his face.

    The fans backed him before kick off but it took a mere 10 minutes for that to disappear. Today for me was his defining game, a chance to right the wrongs of the past few weeks and get the ship back on track against the worst form team in the division. And he failed. Not one solitary shot on target against a team with 1 win in 13 and no clean sheet in 8. Sorry, he's done, pack your bags and clear your drawers. And for all the apologists crying 'but who would we put in'? I don't f*cking care, you could let the lads manage themselves, cos lets face it, thats what that shambles looked like today. A team with no guidance or encouragement from a manager who should be heading for the door.

    There are many who share your pain/feelings.

    Well done to all those who went today despite knowing it was likely to be a shit show.

    Tuesdays ACTUAL attendance will be interesting. I can't see Cheltenham bringing many.

    Christ almighty as if today couldn't get any worse that joker is still sucking off the opposition in his post match interview.

    I supported Bowyer and honestly thought once he got his full fit squad back he would get us back up and running, but he looked clueless today.
    McCartan was not the answer along side Doyle yet he played the full game, we had no one with any presence up top something that Donaldson had yet he waited until the 76 minute to bring him on.
    Sat here reading fellow posters comments whether they went or not you have to think is there any point in spending your hard earned money when you see a gutless performance like today.

    Reckon could be under 9k, it's been while since a league game has been at least under 10k and that is a distinct possibity.

    We're booked on the Dolly coach for Oldham next Saturday how daft are we, I have to say the best part of today was the couple of hours before the game talking to fellow City fans who I didn't know, yet they were still hopeful for a good result today.

    Tuesday will be the same. The 1 hour before the game in the pub will be the only enjoyment of the evening I suggest

    Why put Mellor on and put Henley on the wing at 2-0 down?
    Just don’t understand that?
    Chasing goals put a full back on the wing?

    Same, but after today, it's difficult to come up with a valid reason why I should continue with that support.

    I don't think it was that McCartan wasn't the answer today, it was playing head tennis and hoof ball that wasn't the answer. That was never going to work for Shay and Doyle who need the ball played to their feet, and don't even get me started on waiting until the 76th minute before bringing Donaldson on, might as well not have bothered by that point.

    I might wander over to Oldham mesen. Its not that far from Keefly.

    Not been since they put a roof and seats in the away end.

    Remember one boxing day where I nearly died of hypothermia stood on that open end.

    I believe what is now the away end used to be the home end, so dont worry if they tell you to go in what was the home end it will be full of City fans ;).

    Me too. It was just before Xmas and was Trevor Cherry's penultimate game in charge.
    Already got my ticket. But there's two scenarios
    A) GB is still in charge and we're shite so I spend the game going mental or....
    B) The ginger warrior is back.....
