    What does it say when fans who've already paid for their tickets for the season can't bear turning up? And not in their hundreds, but bloody thousands?

    The two stand outs for Notts County (10 & 7) ran the show last night and would walk into our side, but interestingly they are part of a team that was in such bad form before meeting us. I wonder if they would struggle with the mental strength needed at this club. Confidence is massive and you can't have 5 or 6 players looking at their boots, or it spreads through the team like a knife through butter.

    I think you're right and that would be terrible.

    Let's be clear they were a bang average L2 side up against a bang average L2 side. We were just a whole lot shitter than them last night.

    It must be 50% or more of ST holders not coming to games consistently. It’s unprecedented and shows far we have fallen. 7,000 crowds next year. People have had enough.

    Yer but less fans means a better atmosphere in the ground. Apparently. Better educated fans who can clap harder to make the same noise as 14K. Can't wait.

    Yeah, let's get rid of the chaff and plastic fans Keefly. Oh, and all the money they bring into the club to help keep it running when they do turn up. Let's just stick with the hardcore, who I'm sure will love life in the National League.

    Agreed. Leicester cannot be compared with Bradford, it is a very different City, obviously in the midlands, well led and has a vibrant busy and well looked after centre. Can't believe anyone making this comparison has actually been there. Burnley, Blackburn and perhaps Preston, more realistic Cities to compare football club outcomes against.

    I was just reminding us all of another couple of posters thoughts who think that less is more.

    Leeds is definitely a relevant issue for Bradford, but don't agree with the comparison to towns like Blackburn or Burnley. Can't see the relevance at all, but not in the mood for an argument about it lol

    GA referred to the deflected shot with Notts first attack last night, but no mention of their no. 9 being given the freedom of our penalty area.
