What I’m saying is that just because of a big stadium they don’t own, and a modicum of success in the past decade, there’s no reason to believe that City are a better draw for players than many other clubs in that division. Talk of clubs being bigger or smaller is bollocks and means next to nothing in the real world. Say to a player Salford on £5k a week or Bradford on £3k a week, he’s off to Salford. Same money he’s thinking what’s the coach like, how many of my mates are there and what do my mates who have played there think of club. He might trot out to the media the lines about massive massive football club, once in a lifetime opportunity to play for the best fans in the division, sleeping giant, but at the end of the day he’s doing what’s best for his wallet and his career.

 

Sadly, we are more likely to be at the bottom of the table than the top.

 

So pitch invasion at 3pm then?

 

Christ. Its no wonder fans are negative and down if those in the board room are already getting in the excuses should we not go up next season.

 

I would like to say thank you for all the hard graft, keeping us in the loop. I often think a new documentary filmed behind the scenes, showing how the business side works will open eyes of a lot of people. Bring back a few fans.

 

Bloody hell yes please ! In fact I'm sure that's not beyond K Block to sing it

No commitment, you're an embarrassment
Yes, an embarrassment, to the claret and amber
If you been bothered we could have been top
But we bottom coz your never turned up !
Your embarrassment
Repeat....!!!
Easy !

 

All progressive businesses have to have a long and a short term plan a goal to aim for including projected timescales and how these plans are to come to fruition
I presume Bradford City are no different
Would show some appreciation of our season ticket sales and boost the long suffering fans confidence in the new season if some of this be made public
If indeed such strategies exist

 

@Bronco is a tripe man. I'm not. I'd sooner pinch matron!

 

There’s also 19 other mega rich PL clubs trying to stop Man City. Doesn’t mean they can though.
We are the biggest club in league 2 by far and 13000 fans expect promotion immediately.

 

A club who sells 13 thousand season tickets for div 4 football and a club when doing well could generate 20 + thousand crowds.

That's good enough in my book for a big club in div 4.

 

Oh I agree. Backed Fulham yesterday. Shop window and all that

 

I’m crying with laughter

 

Totally agree regarding the council not giving a shite about the club, however they were quick to jump on the bandwagon when City were promoted to the premier league, flying the City flag at the Town Hall and marketing Bradford using the clubs new stature.
Where is Prentice Park?

 

Yeah, autocorrect sorry about that

 

Too True
Players and Agents have only one thing on their mind
Most of this seasons no hopers would have uttered the immortal
Can't wait to join such a big club
It's an honour to sign for a club like Bradford City
Am so impressed by the set up it was no decision but to,sign
Their performances prove it was more like "Give me the money and if I can be arsed I will play "

 

I agree with his comments regarding being poorly educated, but what you allude to is also correct. The ability to learn is very often held back by a woefully inadequate education system for the working class and also a lack of encouragement from the parents of these children. I take my brother in law for example, from Holme Wood and got offered a scholarship at Woodhouse Grove as a young lad but his parents couldn't be bothered to put the effort in to get him there (my father in law was a lazy get and my mother in law worked a lot of hours to compensate), he left school with next to nothing. But personal drive and goals are also important to succeed, he now works at a Grammar school in high Wycombe after gaining two degrees, one of them a physics degree at Durham University. Sorry for the digression.

 

All sat in the centre circle?

 

Bring a picnic if it's a nice day.

 

I would think most of the players would be saying I'm not going back out to face the supporters knowing that they don't have any passion or pride for this club.

 

Everyone will be fine in a few weeks time when everything has settled in. Its a massive dint in our collective pride but we will bounce back.
