    Sick of seeing this crap. Club size means absolutely nothing!! Season ticket sales mean absolutely nothing! We are a league 2 club. Our squad is very much a league 2 squad. It’s not a stand out squad by any stretch. We didn’t deserve to lose today but that’s football! We will be around the top 7.
    We also have a number of injuries. The overreaction and over analysis of our formation is getting very boring.

    I think most of us believe in the manager, it’s the belief in Bradford City we’re questioning. All this talk about auto promotion from the board, and they’ve done nothing to back the manager. It’s almost like they’re treating us like mugs. We’re one injury away, in every position, of being a threadbare team.

    Yes have to agree. He totally switched off there!

    Got to give him 15-20 to get in the game though!

    Where are the young legs in midfield or out of defense to run at defenders and take them on making them make mistakes? Answer? on the list to go out on loan because Adams does not trust them,

    I'll post here because the Facebook group seems to be filled with the absolute dregs of society with no football knowledge whatsoever.

    I'm fed up with the kinda scripted games we play. It's always the same, with Vernam trying his best to cut inside, Cooke and Watt slowing play down looking for a pass past their ability, the LB crossing as soon as the ball is near him despite nobody being in the box and Gillied offering nothing whatsoever apart from one or two decent runs with no end product every game. Evans is a turd and should have been let go in the summer.

    Our key midfielder is sat on the bench for some reason, we lost our only attacking threat through injury and we are still holding on to rubbish that has seen many failures during their Bradford City careers which should have seen us move them on regardless of ability.

    Are you seriously saying that Sikora, Staunton and Scales would have made a difference today?

    FCD, Staunton and Scales yes should be in or around the side, all have enough talent fitness and the legs to get better they just lack games and a manager to play them instead of the duffers like Evans

    If changes are needed then Sutton needs to start for me was one of the few players who would run for 90 mins none stop and give us something different, also what's the deal with Songo'o ok he looked average at Orient but thought he was the player who was expected to break up other teams yet doesn't get a look in. Vernam looks decent for 70 mins then blows out of puff. Would definitely change quite a few personel against barrow.

    There's something strangely comforting and familiar about realising we're still a bit shit.

    The extra days training on Sunday seems to be working. Feisty and prickly interview from Derek this afternoon.

    For everyone who slated Bowyer.
    Bowyer MKI beat Bowyer MKII today.
    If you don’t take your chances then that’s what happens. I would argue that this performance was better than the utter shit show last time at Salford. However that was a particular low point.
    For all those who didn’t miss Angol....
    Angol helps the ball stick up front and knits together play with Cooke. We badly miss him. He misses chances but his wider impact was so positive for the whole team.

    Trouble is we were comfortable in the game, I don’t know if you watched it or just going on one or two on here. But Cook should have scored two headers Vernam got into good positions and was wasteful and they didn’t really threaten. They scored in the last minute after we switched off, if Cook scores and we win everyone is loving Adams and it’s a good victory with that same team and formation. I’m not convinced anything on the bench would have given us more threat and their returns prove it.

    That I agree with, see my initial post after the game to see who I blame and he’s not Scottish.

    FCD had been playing before his international call up.

    Scales not good enough.

    Staunton hasn't played for 10 months since his bad Injury
    so maybe Adams has this spot on too, get him out on loan

    Saying above Adams took Cook off because he was injured which is hardly a suprise, once again trying to battle two central defenders alone.
    Yes he should have put that header away but once again the lad was fighting a lost cause he needs a foil.
    Very disappointing result we should have come home with at least a point their keeper being given MOTM two great save to keep Salford level, we never looked in trouble from dead ball situations yet lose 3 points to one in the dying minute.
