    Link has been removed now total has been reached

    A new thread may be starting once it is decided if more funding is required for other purposes

    This is not a charity, this is crowdfunding a movement for regime change at Bradford City.

    Let's get this done.

    "Under the leadership of Edin Rahic and Stefan Rupp, Bradford City have gone from a promotion chasing side that reached the play offs in back-to-back seasons, to a mess slumped at the foot of the League One table.

    The sheer scale of the club's regression is far from mere hyperbole - Bradford City have the ignominy of being the single worst performing side in the English Football League throughout 2018 (as of late October). With no fewer than five managers in the space of 12 months, and a complete (disastrous) squad overhaul, City's fate is in real jeopardy.

    This proposed Flyover, touted by the forum members at Bantam Talk (and in particular Nick W), isn't intended to remove Rahic and/or Rupp instantly - but it is intended to send a very clear message. The City faithful are not happy, and 'WE WANT EDIN OUT'.



    Suggested donation: £10

    Once the target is met, a poll will be conducted on Bantamtalk for the most appropriate game for the flyover - please ensure you have registered there in order to vote so as to avoid disappointment."

    @Nick_W_@Nick_W_, I'll be in contact when the funds are raised if that's okay?

    You will be getting a cease and desist letter from me in a moment for using my copyrighted logo lol.

    In all seriousness you should have let me know what dimensions you needed, I could have given you a copy that didn’t chop the name off and wasn’t all pixelated

    Haha, you had me going there for a moment!

    Yeah, if you want to send me something in a bit higher resolution it does allow me to alter the reframe the image - I've updated it, but it's obviously still pixelated :)

    Don’t think my donation has gone through. If it hasn’t by the morning will have another go.

    It just said mine is "taking longer than usual, keep an eye on your email", so I wouldn't re-donate if I was you!

    Just a heads up!

    Done. I can edit this if anyone vociferously protests, but it sounds sensible to me.

    Just out of interest, there are 16 league games and a couple of FA cup games before then.. What if we happen to win 8/9 of those and are also through to the 4th round of the fa cup where man city await.. Does the flyover still go ahead?

    Yes, definitely.

    This isn't a protest about the players or the manager, so while the on-pitch turn-around would be welcome, the levels of incompetence displayed over the last 10 months won't suddenly be tolerable.

    Like Onside said and like I said I think it has gone through but you can't always tell. Even with Faster Payments these days they can take hours to get transferred. I will double check my account tomorrow and if not processed will donate 20 quid as I have said. I said I would donate weeks ago and nothing I have seen on the pitch and particularly read tonight on the BCST thread has changed my mind...
