    If I were going to single anyone out, which would be pointless, it would Doyle.

    But as I say, pointless. He's not the reason we're last, merely a small part of it.

    Annnnd after all that nonsense, we are going back to a men-not-boys philosophy.

    What a waste of time, thanks Edin you moron, here's to your inability to learn from the past or even current events.

    Bradford City have completed the signing of Scottish international Paul Caddis.

    Caddis, who can operate at right-back and in midfield, has agreed a deal which will keep him at the Northern Commercials Stadium until at least the end of the season.

    The 30-year-old has made more than 300 career appearances, enjoying spells with Celtic, Swindon, Birmingham, Bury and Blackburn over an 11-year professional career.

    Irvine-born Caddis said: “I am delighted to be joining the club, it is great to finally have the deal over the line.

    “I have been training with the team for the last few weeks, which has been well documented, and am now looking forward to getting stuck in and helping City move away from the relegation zone.

    “On paper we have a fantastic squad, packed full of talent and quality. But you don’t get results on paper and there is a great deal of hard work ahead.

    “I will bring a fair bit of experience to the team and will do all I can to help us get the results we need.

    “I have won League Two before and have earned promotion from League One, so I know what it is all about.

    “I have played my part in teams who have survived the threat of relegation and kicked on, which is what I want to achieve here - at the very least.”

    City head coach David Hopkin, completing his second new signing since arriving at the club in September, said: “Paul is a fantastic addition for us and we are really pleased to have got him over the line.

    “He has been training with us for a couple of weeks and has looked really sharp. He is fit and raring to go.

    “Paul comes with a wealth of experience and I am looking forward to seeing what he will add to the team in the weeks and months ahead.”

    Caddis’ signing is subject to the club receiving the relevant clearances.

    Agreed, only Scott Phelan could possibly upgrade the engine room at present.

    If Doyle was played where he has all his career the penalty box off a proper centre forward he would score goals which he has done most of his career

    Harsh criticism of our recruitment and methodology that, Park. Have you finally been swayed?

    Are you for real?

    Payne has been a let down. We build a team round him and he doesn't produce hence why he gets dropped

    As for being top scorer that's not hard with the other let down in Doyle not scoring

    A fan can agree that the thinking behind replacing Wyke leaves a lot to be desired and at the same time not think that this means every other recruit since June 2016 has been a disaster

    By default, the fact no signing can play with Doyle and have any effect is a heavy criticism of a number of signings.

    Maybe not the back line, but the lack of quality there is undeniable.
