so, hold on - let’s take a step back a minute. you’re accusing me of being antagonistic yet i’ve been told i’m a WUM, a bot, on edin’s payroll, work for the club but then that i don’t go to matches at all (which is it?) or that i don’t support city at all. all because i don’t toe the party line of this forum and throw abuse or rumour at the club and for having my own opinion which in some instances may differ from others. so how about you tell other posters to back off like you have me? or does it only matter for those that have differing opinions?

you, personally, have had 2 or 3 digs at me in the past and now you are asking me to respect what other posters are saying. that’s a bit rich isn’t it? in all honesty, this is a forum and personally it doesn’t actually bother me what people think about my posts - but just because someone has a different opinion that doesn’t mean they are wrong or don’t care about the club. people have a choice and a right to support or not support the club in whichever way they seem fit, as long as they don’t overstep the line.

you’re right, i don’t agree with a protest at the moment but i definitely don’t agree with a protest that seems like it’s going to fizzle out after a short time. the fact that there isn’t one person willing to take on the mantel as chief organiser on this board indicates to me that they are plenty of people who will talk a good game but nobody actually wanting to do the graft. there have been people advocating for an no-show and for people to skip matches as a sign of protest, but 24 hours later those same people seen to be saying that actually now they are going to go, or if we get a good cup draw at some point that they can’t see themselves missing out on that one. that doesn’t mean i disagree with a persons right to protest, in whichever way they see fit in accordance with law. but if the protest is going to work and get a message across that people want then it can’t be dipped in and out of when people see fit or when it suits them. what kind of message does that send?

living and working 70 miles away from bradford it actually takes up the majority of my saturday attending matches and dependent on the m62 can be a bit of a trek on evenings. am i going to stop making the journey now during the tough times? no, and that’s my choice. if people don’t want to go, then that’s their choice too.

enjoy your day.

 

Totaly agree, just putting it out there for anyone who hasn't given yet, I'll be sending the link to all my Bradford City friends we should piss £750.

 

Are you happy with the way they are running our club, as I assume from your post you will not be contributing.
I never thought I would be protesting about how our club is being so poorly run, but now Jon has started the ball rolling I'm quite happy to see what becomes of our protest, this is not a pop at yourself @How everyone sees it differently but enough is enough IMO

 

I’ve put the fundraiser up on the other forum

 

£190 now =]

 

Large protest outside the main reception before and after the game?
95% of us have already paid for our tickets so it’s not going to hurt them financially us not going to the game so we might aswell try and get behind the team, as bad as they are.

 

It’s the first time in having a ST for 23 years that I decided not to go simply because I decided to do something else. I’ll be there Tuesday but I feel like I’m losing the love for City now. I’m sure there’s plenty of others.
I know most of my group who went yesterday aren’t going Tuesday after witnessing that.

 

As a life long Bradford City supporter can I suggest you carry on with your great support with regards finacial help ETC to our club, but until you see change you make it quite plain to the owners no monies will be forth comming their way.
Or will that mean you won't be allowed at the top table feeding from Edins scraps .

 

Might come into contact with a Rory clearance that is still orbiting, but otherwise should be okay.

 

I’d go with everything on here plus maybe dumping the matter of heart dvds on the pitch at a defined time.

 

Will you set up a just giving page or something? There's enough support for this.

 

That might come later as momentum gathers.

 

Good luck getting a banner in.

 

See if you can get 70 members to chip in for a banner that simply says "Bantam Talk". If you can't then you have your answer.

This is about the club, it really shouldn't be used as a chance to publicise the forum and for what it's worth that would apply to any City related group organising a protest such as the trust or various supporters groups.

 

If only we could.
Why do you believe they will honour something they promised us fans and Stuart as manager last season, and what sort of money would you be happy spending on several new faces, upward of £1m for 4 quality players, bearing in mind we payed transfer money for the likes if McCarton, Reeves, Jones, Scannell, Doyle, I do hope your right but even yourself has to acknowledge we have been let down in the past so why will/should the Januaries transfer window be different ?.

 

Can you put me down for a tenner please. I can't sit back and watch that crettin ruin my club.
