    Why can’t we retain the ball like other teams? most of the game we looked like we were playing a team of 14 Tranmere players they out passed us.

    According to Mr Sparks who publicly stated "The new manager has had full input into arrivals and departures"
    Am all for continuity but we can't continue like this or he will get us out this division but not in th way everyone thought

    The bull shi&e that Adams said about not using the loan market is sackable.

    For Sparks to allow Adams not to use the loan market is sackable.

    Tranmere sign a talent for liverpool on loan and we lose the game. 6 points being 7th and 9 points being 3rd. Oh 14points behind top.

    JOKE!!

    Very true. Just a lot of 'get it up the pitch asap'

    That second half was classic Adams. When he has to think on his feet or innovate: he can't. All about the preparation and structure with him. Problem is, aside from Sutton, the players are the same. Like robots. Play to the plan. Pass the same way to the same teammate.

    He needed to switch up the formation to try and get us up the pitch and create chances. He did nowt. Of course he'll say "well, we had to play like this because of Tranmere blah blah". Well the result was no shots in the second half.

    Derek said so himself twice before. Literally half this team is either made of glass or naff.

    Songo’o?
    POC and Ridealgh were a 3.
    Canavan was poor today IMO and as CPT I expect to see him step up in game like today and get a hold of the team, like Gary Jones used to.

    I like Watt, but he is having a horrendous season and needs some time out.

    FCD proved how much development he needs. He completely lost his head and was absolutely all over the place second, we were virtually 10 men as he became a total liability.

    2 wins since August is a shocking statistic for a side with aspirations of promotion.

    2 reasons, 1 our passes are inaccurate and not good weight, second the player recieving the pass has poor first touch, simple really

    It's unacceptable.

    Let's see if Spark has the balls to come out and say this. Oh he will hide behind his books?

    Did you enjoy watching that.

    20 or so minutes in the first half was ok.. but the rest.. I can watch a Sunday league team do better.

    To say we only had one player out of the squad, I suspect 3 or 4 of those players were carrying knocks going into that game. We did ok in small patches in the first half, but once Angol went off, we had no presence up front. Eisa is the new DMH, and for all the anticipation of his return, he was nowhere near the ball and made no impact. Robinson seems to be reverting to the player Port Vale warned us about, no affect whatsoever. If we don’t pick up 3 points on Saturday the atmosphere will turn pretty quickly. We’ve nothing upfront whatsoever so I’m fearful of the next few weeks.

    Fantastic supporters, shit owner turning us into a shit football club. Let's get rid of this so called owner. If not let's start a new Bradford City, and put the pride back into our great club and i don't care where we start.

    This is 2021 not 2001, pal. It’s a quick-results game unless you’re a self-sustained fan owned or family run club these days.

    We’re no longer a United Bantams family we’re a sinking ship that needs steadying fast.
