Bradford City - the last 12 months - SHAMBLES

I don't think people are realising the severity of the situation we face.

There are zero positive signs, very few chances to recover.

 

The handling of the striker situations was criminal, circa 60 goals a season walks out the door, and you end up left with Donaldson.

 

A lot on here said Ivan Toney and Tom Eaves weren’t good enough when we looked to replace Wyke before.

 

There's so many more failings. How about entrusting last January to Bowyer them sacking him a couple of days later.

 

Pretty much did the same to Bowyer when he came in late Feb/early March

 

Don’t think anything will change unless we collectively take action now - ala plane banner

 

I think you put the blame at the door for the club for the recruitment pre season, as bad as Stuart is in the market I think he makes a dig about the club in post match interview about us basically having no idea what we were doing at all.

I dont understand the logic of giving someone a contract extension, teeing up a head of recruitment guy all linked to Stuart and then sacking him. Their doesn't seem to be any logical thinking to what we are doing....

 

As football manager surely Stuart is 100% for his own recruitment. Didn't he know what agents would be asking for in money before making offers, didn't he have wiggle room so if Salford offer Henderson £50 p/w more we can match it (and with the salary cap the margins could be that small), specifically with Henderson didn't he think to ask Gary Jones to put a word in with him ?

 

I can just imagine Henderson after 6 months of being here ringing Gary Jones..... Ohhh some friend you turned out to be you scouse feck wit having me sign for that load of shite. And have you read that forum there's some nutter called fordy on there never says a good word about anything or anyone at the club... Fecking Leeds fans.

 

Leeds fan thats you mate. Having silly losing bets with your Leeds pals.

As I say when the club stops being a shambles I will have many good positive words to say about it. Right now the club is a joke.

 

There's also many, many, many more that people suggested who won't even be professional footballers right now. It's easy to act like Billy Big balls after the event. It's what @Sergio Pinto III likes to do to try and get a decent wind up going.

 

My suggestions are in the premier league and beyond. Listen to me

 

You're obsessed with Fordy

 

Was it not a transfer that took place before the cap came in so the full amount of his salary would have not have counted.

 

Glad there someone else who thinks the same.

My simple answer to this is Bravo for expressing it.

 

Inconsistent communication.

Ryan Sparks, T&A 28th July
“We would not want someone like James Vaughan to walk out of our club and we certainly wouldn’t hand him to a rival without significant compensation.”

11th August
James Vaughan signs for Tranmere.

Ryan Sparks WOAP 21st Jan
“Ryan stated there was a shared will within the club to restore Bradford City back to where it was before it had unravelled – back into League One as a starting point. And then the club can look to build from there”

Julian Rhodes later in the year
“Promotion was never the aim this season” (or similar).

 

You missed we can’t sign free transfers at any point as they take weeks to get fit
