    This should be a winnable game. Zero transfers from Colchester as far as I'm aware. Also released a few first teamers last season. Our first 5 look quite decent imo.

    Reading the fixtures just makes you realize how far we have fallen
    Take notloB out the equation and you could be mistaken for thinking it's non league already
    Depressing !!!!!

    Awful in my view. Southend, Crawley, Newport and Orient away games all on Tuesday night. These clubs will miss out on the Bantams travelling fans, even if we have a less than brilliant season and the loss of income from gate money plus add ons' of catering, etc. will not be good.
    Some will quote ifollow but not all those who would have traveled will take that up. I view ifollow will do to football what Amazon has done to the High Street, really feel for those clubs and there will be many more in the same position.

    What is the point of listing the stadiums with only their sponsored names?

    It doesn't mean anything.

    That’s what the sponsors pay the money for I guess

    A totally meh fixture list where you can’t even look for the local away games as we probably won’t even get to them.
    Let’s just get on with it and get to where fans can come back properly

    Because its the requirment in the naming rights contracts that the clubs themselves only use the Sponsored versions. They do sound stupid though. I wish if naming rights were being sold that they did something closer to what Newcastle did at one point where it was SportsDirect.com@StJamesPark which while thats a mess retain the traditional name. Something like The Utilita Energy Valley Parade while not ideal would be much better as it doesn't slowly wipe out the actual name as we have seen with the likes of The City of Manchester Stadium or Ashburton Grove (which admittedly its easier to wipe it out with new stadiums as you don't have the old timers who still remember the old name but even old stadiums you will get a crop of new fans who never really know it as the actual name)

    Always assuming away fans are allowed to travel
    Have I missed something ??
    Good point about I Follow however in our case put a good team on the pitch and the fans will turn up

    Away fans will not be allowed in when fans return.

    Always enjoy an away day mingling with the "locals"
    Better than a trip to the Valley

    I don't see iFollow having too much impact on actual fans turning up when things are back to normal (even if they are allowed to keep showing all matches). The service isn't robust enough and peoples internet connections are not fast enough (or reliable enough) across the board to be fully relied on and you lose a massive amount of the reason people go to a live match. It's more likely to hit the causual fan, the person who turns up because they have some time on a saturday afternoon and want to watch some football but cant watch the club they support so they go to a local game. This will especially be the case if the PL clubs ever start doing it as casual fans are more likely to watch a United, City, Liverpool, Spurs, Arsenal etc game than Bradford or worse the teams even lower down where the casual fan is their lifeline
