    He wasn't responsible for the reason we came down. But he's a big part of the reason we're still here.

    In reality not many are going to get to see the game.

    Their away section, ‘...has a capacity of 700. On one side of this stand is a small covered seated stand that comprises 150 seats, which is also given to away fans’.

    Let’s face it we could probably take 5,000+.

    It's just called failure mate. FAILURE! Has nothing to do with the magic of football.

    Agree. It's a shame that local business won't be able to benefit from this

    You miserable sod. Harrogate in the EFL is absolutely magical. Good on them and its a reward for the owners investing in the club with a clear plan. A clear plan is something we need sooner rather than later.

    This is it. You call for a clear plan and something I have for years but our CEO Rhodes doesn't have one but you still back Rhodes.Still back Ryan and then wonder why we are now in the same league has bloody Harrogate. It was Salford last year but now Harrogate and Barrow.

    If this isn't a wake up call to Bradford fans of the failure of this club then nothing will. Maybe, us being in the non league will open people's eyes. Too late then!

    So, yes I am a miserable sod because I hate failure! Hate it! I am in things to win! I am taking no joy of Harrogate being in the same league as us none! If we were in the PL then fine but we are in div 2 and a club going backwards!

    I know exactly why we are in this league and he has been ousted from hierarchy of the club.

    Well done to Harrogate and Barrow-shows what you can achieve with a plan.

    Our new CEO will set a clear plan, of that I am certain.

    You said that's the way to go, non league reform and go again with a plan or have you changed your mind again?.

    If I were you I would be on the blower to the Harrogate chairman asking how you could get on the board.

    They are an ambitious club (ambitious like you) and could benefit from your money (you have lots) and expertise (as you keep telling us) I am sure. ;)

    I would hope not but anything can happen between now and the end of 2020/21 season, when ever that finishes.

    How are we “going backwards”?
    Personally I think we are moving forwards.

    Underdogs perhaps... they'll have a momentum we don't have, perhaps?
    Why wouldn't we be underdogs? They're on the up and we've got some work to do to gain some sort of positivity reading these threads

    Ignore @Fordy117@Fordy117. If he won the lottery he would moan it is not enough.
