    this! 100%.

    I can't tell you how much it bugs me when people talk complete and utter nonsense like "I don't want to get to the Premier League"
    don't talk crap. gonna start wanting us to lose if we end up in the Championship play off places will you? refuse to attend matches if we get back to the PL?
    the aim of ANY football club and football supporter should be to be the best. to win. to succeed. to get as high and do aswell as possible.
    saying you'd be happy staying in the football league, for whatever reason is horse shit. AND ITS EXACTLY WHAT WE MEAN WHEN WE SAY CITY FANS LACK AMBITION AND ACCEPT MEDIOCRITY.

    it might be incredibly unlikely that we'd ever end up back in the top 20 teams in english football, but that doesn't mean I don't want it to happen.

    Top post.

    Another post that should be on the walls of the Bradford City boardroom @wetherbywhaler@wetherbywhaler

    Bradford City needs winners around them. This losers mentality needs to stop!

    Who knows mate when the Edin mess is turned into a film you can play a leading part as the man who warned us all about him.

    I'll be filmed pulling up in my Merc with a dwarf on my lap.

    Bowyer got results before he came here and had a very good record.

    What’s your point?

    Playing devils advocate here how would you have kept the following players?

    Merdeith - Millwall offered him a contract
    Marshall - Wanted to move to London to be near family
    Cullen - recalled by Wets Ham who wanted him in the Championship

    Darby was let go as McMahon was preffered at right back, McArdle looked like a big miss, was never replaced but he wanted a 3 year deal (maybe should have given) and Clarke was let go - was he a miss?????
    You seem to have jumped a summer...

    Yeah mate, we can all line up and pay our respects to the guy who has never told us about how he single handedly worked Edin Rahic out of Bradford City.

    Do enlighten me with your knowledge.

    You claim you wanted Evans for his record?

    Evans would have saved us, who cares about his reputation, id rather have 8k fans and a team in a higher division with Evans in charge as opposed to what we currently have... Bowyer wont last he’ll be gone before xmas ‍♂️

    I never mentioned his reptation once.

    Why would he have saved us? Based on what? Bowyer has a good record too and he couldn’t save us.

    I’ll bet you 50 quid for the burns unit that he will be here longer than Xmas. Put your money where your mouth is

    Totally disagree. I would rather have 13000 fans and be in league 2 under Bowyer, than having Evans at the helm in league 1 with a very divided fanbase. Not that I think he would have kept us up either anyhow

    It wouldn't have made a difference who came in to the club. I'm guessing some think Evans going off on one at the players would suddenly give them the ability to defend as a team and give us a strikeforce that looks half threatening. People have strange logic sometimes.
