    We almost did get into the championship, then we decided scrap everything and start again. Its not that difficult to get into the championship, but staying in there is another thing

    Villa and Walsall/Liverpool & Tranmere/Chelsea & Brentford/Man City & Bury/Burnley & Accrington lots of clubs out there, which have neighbours that are larger than them.

    I don't buy the 'geography' argument, it's as easy for people in (eg) Preston or Burnley to go to Old Trafford (or any of the big Prem teams on the M62 corridor) as it is for Bradfordians.

    Wigan is far more of a rugby league town than Bradford, but their round ball club have been far more successful than City in this century.

    What the likes of Wigan, Barnsley, Rotherham and Huddersfield have had that Bradford City haven't is significant, long term investment from an owner who's also a fan. Bradford City now have an owner that's neither a football fan in general or a City fan in particular. Who's only continuing to fund the club because of a very poor choice of who he jumped into bed with in business terms. The club's gone from the verge of the Championship to League Two limbo. I can usually find positives in even the darkest situations, but I'm struggling to believe that Bradford City's future is anything but f*&+@# at the moment.

    It’s like when you’re playing 5 aside, you’re all knackered, and don’t bother coming to defend. Enslaught happens. You don’t care. Just waiting for the game to end.
    And these guys are getting paid for this.

    He's a better shot stopper than Doyle for me. Equal in every other department.

    People always want to go against the grain in an attempt to make themselves look more intelligent than the rest. Any talk of ODonnell being poor/ worse than Doyle is nonsense- he is our best player and a very good goalkeeper at this level. He is playing at this level as he makes the odd mistake...

    You have to take into account the shambolic and weak mentality of the defence he is playing behind - I doubt if any goalkeeper could look confident and at his best behind this lot :(

    He’s a decent keeper and appears to be a all round good bloke but he’s got nowt on Doyle.

    I haven't seen the goals today, no idea how he played, but I'll stand by my comments. He's a good league 1 keeper who's severely lacking confidence.

    What has the division got to do with anything? You don't go to VP to watch the other teams we're playing, you go to watch City.
