    I too don't want Scunthorpe to finish above us in the table or anyone else in fact. Do you?

    In a head to head bet, it's something that I would bet on. The reality is both teams are unlikely to push for promotion, so yes I would entertain this bet and yes, if I would be comfortable on scunSc finishing above us.

    So you want Scunny to finish above us? That was the question. And you do. Wierdo.

    Of course I don't, but then that would be my heart over ruling my head if I believed we will finish above Scunthorpe, now if someone wants to offer me a bet that City finish above Scunthorpe I'm quite happy to take it, because like it or not Stuart will turn Scunthorpe around quicker than Micheal Collins can/will.
    I'll offer you the same bet if you fancy Bradford City to finish above Scunthorpe, £10 to the Burns Unit, I very much doubt you'll take it because I believe you are a realist, at the present time Bradford City are in the s**t.

    So in a bet you would not back against city.

    I wasn't offering a bet with you just asking you what you wanted.

    I hope we finish above everyone else in the division but deep down know we won't.

    Unless there’s a change very quickly I’ve no doubt a Stuart McCall Scunthorpe will finish well above City. No doubt whatsoever.

    I know you wasn't. But my original post was based upon the wager presented..

    The bloke is hot air.

    I like a wager, not a punt. 25 years working in the industry and some of my thinking is related. I would love city to be successful and have backed city on multiple occasions.
    This calendar year I have exploited the bookmakers inability to recognise a team and club in decline. I backed Wycombe on Saturday, I have no issues with my wager.

    ohh jeez...do I really need to run out the playground rhyme....Sticks and stones....how old are you?

    Are Bradford City really at the point where the most exciting thing for our 'supporter's is the appointment of a manager to a rival club?

    Really...that is how low our self esteem is?

    We bait each other with the appointment to another team?

    We applaud and cheer for a rival team?

    We fervently hope that a rival does better than we do so we can score points on a forum and give us ammunition to fire at our current owners and coaching team?

    Personally I hope McCall fails, massively, at Scunthorpe. Not because it is McCall but because I want Scunthorpe and Luton and Barnsley and Blackpool and Shrewsbury and Doncaster and Sunderland and Portsmouth... and...and...and...and...and...and...and ... to fail

    ...and Bradford City to succeed

    Nah thats not completely true....sorry I couldn't keep the straight face that long...

    I hope he fails massively if for no other reason than to give me something to talk about on the forum :)
