    I was on a lads trip to Albufeira 3 or 4 summers ago and Mansfield were playing in a tournament locally and we drank and chatted with their supporters.
    Great people. I got so drunk I remember dancing in merlins bar at 5am to Pink Floyd. I certainly was comfortably numb.

    Anybody expected back from injury today? What's the sp on Staunton's injury? Vernham must be close?

    Match Day. I haven’t felt this excited for a very long time. I haven’t been since the Northampton game November last year. I have been watching on iFollow Going today though. Looks like the Yorkshire weather as come out to greet our new manager.
    I just want to see us put in a good performance, it would be great if we could nab all 3. Mansfield are flying so we will see.

    woke up this morning with a real spring in my step and really looking forward to the match.
    The sun is shining and it really does feel like a new start, we are coming out of a long dark damp winter of Adams ball.
    I am not expecting miracles, just the small shoots of recovery. A win would be fantastic , a draw not bad .
    We have not had many good days as Bradford city fans, but today feels like one.

    Not sure we should be doing anything as fans that might dissuade a Russian oligarch from taking the club out of the evil hands of Stefan Rupp.

    Starting from a fairly low base, then more energy, clever play, solid defending would help.

    The promise of better days ahead would be great.

    H&H only have the ingredients to work with that the last Manager, Head of Recruitment, and Scouts got for us.

    This exactly. This ship is still effectively sinking. Hughes first job is to stop it sinking any further. I hope he knows just how low this club has actually sunk, it will probably become clear to him when he sees the squad in action. This time a manager has to be given time to turn it around.

    Buzzing right now. Haven't looked forward to a game this much in a very long time.

    Sounds like there will be a bumper crowd today for various reasons. Possibly 18,000+?

    A good solid performance and a win would be ideal but for starters would like to see some sort of cohesion amongst the team.

    Match Day just dropped Mrs Rocket off at the Railway Station she’s meeting number 1 Daughter and Granddaughter in Leeds . Both have messaged saying trains full of Lxxxs fans.
    “What’s going on Marvin”
    Anyway hopefully today is going to be a good day a big crowd back at V.P and a new City Manager.
    Hopefully uplifting for all and we “move on up “

    Hope I’m wrong but I can see it being an anticlimax today. Mansfield are flying and we’ve been struggling. New manager or not I can’t see us getting 3 points today…. We shall see!
