    That's how it looked from our end, but as I say someone said it took a deflection.

    And if they don't 4-3-3 simply won't work. Bowyer must know this yet he picks Henley at left back. Incomprehensible.

    And what was with the police presence today, anyone would think they Grimsby were playing Leeds talk about OTT.

    Why would I?

    I didn’t think it was particularly good last Saturday or that Mellor deserved MoTM, so why would I this week?

    You mean like you’ve just suggested? A right winger on the left and a right-back in central midfield. You’re as bonkers as Bowyer

    ;)

    I presume you weren't sitting anywhere near the right hand of the away stand then Bronco? Our disabled supporters had to be moved by stewards to the Grimsby section to get away from City fans surging towards the front. There was also a smoke bomb set off (I don't think it was a flare, not 100% sure). Aside from all the issues this brings on the club from the FA, the side effects irritated my breathing and I now have a cough and dry throat that I didn't have before.
    There wasn't any actual disorder, but the risk of it was reasonably high I think, given that Grimsby isn't too far from Bradford and the nearer the away venue, the more of our badly behaved fans tend to travel.

    Stewards and police are in a no win situation. If they enforce the rules and regulations, eg people sitting on their allocated seats, no standing etc, then there would be loads of people moaning about the heavy handedness but if they don’t there is a risk of incidents like yesterday.

    It had a similar feel to Rochdale because its the same groups of individuals involved. I don't think the away end helped, our seats were on the back row so you couldn't see properly because of the roof, we went and stood up further down. And to be fair, for most of the game yesterday the atmosphere was completely non existent. For such a large following it was pretty tepid stuff.

    This applies to the manager as well.

    Needs to prove his worth at Bradford City.

    I'd personally be very disappointed if we dont win the next two.

    Well to be honest, looking at the first two games of the season, I was thinking we'd be disappointed if we don't win those. Now I think reality is kicking in, and Oldham at home should be a win, but maybe we're happy (!) with a point away at Stevenage. This, unfortunately seems to be how it is at the moment.

    And that strategy surely beats lumping Gibson out wide left (round peg, square hole ironically based on that article).
