    It was failure unfortunately, it was an issue that wasn’t created today but has been there all season. Our weaknesses exposed time and time again. But it’s the Bradford City way to disappoint and when success comes it’s that much sweater. Chin up everyone we go again next season, enjoy your summers.

    Is that a recruitment hotline? Give it to hughes if so. If we get a few forklift drivers and packers temping they’d offer more from the bench than our lot have been doing this season

    Its both.
    We’ve progressed from last year but still failed to meet our seasonal objective, which was promotion. This was a poor league, there for the taking, and we blew it.

    The results weren’t good enough and neither were the performances.

    Hughes out.

    Shit tactics from players selected by Hughes cost us the points for the autos.

    End of.

    Hughes as a player: b*locks the size of Jupiter.
    Hughes as a manger: b*locks the size of peas.

    May be a little raw right now but I'm sick of it. Patience is being tested.

    Five years in the bottom tier now. Stockport may get out in one.

    Luton dropped from the Championship to the Conference, spent five years there and are now 90 mins from the Prem all in the time since we were last in the Championship.

    Coventry were in L2 5 years ago and also stand 90 mins from the Prem.

    Christ, Stevenage came 21st last season and just went up in 2nd spot. It doesn't take years of planning to get out of this division.

    When oh when will someone grab this club by the balls and get it going.

    Badly needs a football person above Hughes doesnt it.

    Sparks is interested in speedway and RL and Stefan in cars. Noone has any football experience.

    our home form and tactics have been criminal but footballing wise he gets such an easy ride.

    i acknowledge off the field we made progress but it is football expertise we need

    Yep. And I'm supportive of a lot of what Sparks seemingly has done on the commercial side. We seem much improved.

    But the footballing department is sorely lacking. Needs a Football Operations/DoF type guy.
