    Maybe we'd be made to go as a punishment.

    Go where? We wouldn’t be in VP if we get relegated, couldn’t afford the stadium. We might have to play on some rec or other. That is if we still had a club, which I doubt we would, unless somebody jumped in and paid the admin fee.

    And if we failed to meet FA criteria - We could rapidly suffer further relegations, playing the likes of Liversedge. :(

    No need for a paddy, it's just a curious observation as to what percentage of supporters would keep up their support should the slump continue.

    It's 18 months of miss management, anyone who can't see past that I'd probably say is short sighted.

    I went with the flexi-card option, but it would depend on different factors as to whether I would make it to many matches.

    If the club managed to stay at Valley Parade, I’d find it a really dull experience watching football in a 24,000 seater stadium with only something like 6,000 in attendance every home match so I would still attend, but would not attend as many matches as before.

    If City ground shared at Odsal, I would have to consider my options as I have tribal loyalties with Keighley Cougars and I wouldn’t be interested in going to Odsal if Bradford Bulls were gaining money from my attendance. If Bulls weren’t getting any money from my attendance, I’d consider Odsal an absolutely excellent ground at non-league level and would likely keep going to matches.

    I could fancy going to more away matches than home matches as there would be a lot of grounds I had never been to before. I could also start groundhopping on some Saturdays or potentially going more often to watch other nearby non-league teams such as Steeton or Silsden.

    Let’s just hope it doesn’t come to this though o_O

    Thats what would do for us a club pretty quickly if we went non league. And for me if we move from VP I've no interest in supporting the club as thats our home and always should be.

    Well that's where we differ @YungNath@YungNath , if we had a owner that money was no object to take our club forward I wouldn't have a problem with moving to a modern stadium with up to date facilities.

    So later on you can pull some spurious figure that x% of fans would accept mediocrity, including dropping into the Conference.

    We know your game
    :p

    I'd certainly buy one. Your club is your club regardless of what league we are in.

    If you can go to Chelsea away but not support your team in dire times, then what does that make you?

    Support them regardless what league and predicament :)

    It just wouldn't be Bradford City to me if we aren't at VP, look at all these new stadiums that are up to date and modern. I wouldn't have any of em bar tottenhams, whereas VP is a hell of an intimidating ground when its rocking.

    This is why football is such a great game that it is, it divides opinions.
