    How though? You are his most ardent opponent. What are YOU doing to effect this?

    The last payment collection for those who bought their STs via direct debit is 1st March, so maybe we’ll see some movement in March RE next year’s campaign, when that income stream stops?

    not sure how many pay via DD but Ryan must be getting nervous!

    Think it was the first week of March last season that the tickets went on sale. Although back then it was looking likely we'd be in a play off game or even autos, so I get the rush to get them out last season, tempting fans to get their seat in early in case of promotion.

    Cant imagine it will be that soon this year? Especially with all the fan relationship at the minute. Might be wrong, I have no idea how it works, but I'd guess that City already have their money from the 15,000 ST sales this season, and had it back in the summer? And the DD payments actually go to some creditor company on behalf of City?

    I've voted out as the run of year on year on field under performance is now way beyond the realms of bad luck.
    Ryan has his strengths, but a change is needed to progress on the pitch.
    Also, in the opinion of a source I trust, there are still elements of the club that remain toxic.
    Others have mentioned behind the scenes aspects holding the club back, it would be good for someone to
    come forward with info about what is behind their opinion.
    If Ryan Sparks were to leave, who would be responsible for choosing his replacement?

    Good news.

    I don't really know anything about the previous supporter group, but I have not been impressed by some of the question/answer sessions.

    I hope a new supporter group is able to find a balance between criticism and positivity, though, especially as times change at Bradford City. We're not always going to be stuck in a malaise, so we don't need an eternally confrontational supporters group, but we definitely need something above and beyond 'discos in the concourse' nonsense and 'I don't like the pies'.

    Perhaps your source could shed some light on the issues, anonymously of course.
