    Well it looks like the weather is on our side today, great start to the day no excuse for any City fan to stay away from todays game.
    If Grimsby bring the 2000+ quoted we should achieve 16,000 today, hopefully the begining of a new era, no matter what fans previous opinions of Stuart's past as our manager are.
    I'ts been a while since I was looking forward to a home game as much as this, I'm sure Grimsby and their fans will make it a great day, unfortunatly there'll be going home with nothing.

    Not sure about McCarten in a central 3. Perhaps Pritchard or Akpan in there instead?

    Yes for some reason I have my wires crossed, Mellor/McMahon I'm getting a little giddy ;).

    Buzzing right now.

    Looking forward to VP having something to sing for.

    With Grimsby bringing 2700 I expect a great raucous atmosphere and hopefully a decent performance from the lads and 3 pts.

    I am expecting attendance to be around 18,500 ish.

    Just hope that whatever team he plays, the players manage and thrive off the atmosphere in the right way. Very easy for this to turn into a Stuart occasion and get carried away. The players, aside of the new signings, are the same that have put in several unacceptable performances this new year.

    Stuart is giving the club and supporters the lift we all need. Time for the players to come to the party as well. There is plenty of talent in this squad, has been all season. Time for them to show us they’re worth the shirt and support of the club. If they can’t channel today’s support in the right way, we know where the issues lie.

    Gutted I can’t make today - VP will be a great atmosphere at KO - let’s hope it stays that way till 5pm.

    Hanson and Clarke will thrive on the atmosphere and occasion today and will love to shut their critics up. Important we get an early goal and take the edge off the game.

    There'll be plenty on here wanting Hanson to score, that's the mentality of some.

    Nice way of calling people losers mate.

    You're correct though.

    As long as it's an own goal, he'll get 100% backing from me.

    Possibly the biggest James Hanson supporter at the time he was here but you're both talking absolute crap.

    In the reverse fixture someone posted that they'd "love Jim to score" and that's a direct quote.

    Maybe a wind up and a few took the bait, he's part of our past history lets leave it like that great servant for the club, I'm sure the crowd will applaud him, Clarke and Luke but once the game starts all our support will be for Bradford City.

    It wasn't a wind up, not in the slightest.

    This isn't a bash at Hanson either so I don't know why you're jumping all over it. The punt was to highlight the strange mentality of some of our fans.
