    The result of Losing to a team with 10 men for over 90 mins is bad yes, but im not sure it was the worse performance in recent weeks, you cant legislate for having 4/5 kicked off the line and hitting the post. It was the piss poor efforts against Plymouth and fleetwood that upset me more.
    From what is implied and the odd story here and there, i think it was more the reaction of certain players in the aftermath that tipped him over the edge

    Mate I was there.

    How much of the ball we had or shots is irrelevant.

    Not many football matches a team goals not to 10 under 10 minutes, go one down then win 3-2.

    For me it was just as poor as Fleetwood even if we had more of the ball etc because of course we were going too.

    I'll bear that in mind for the future, although our future is somewhat limited these days.

    Where did I say he wasn't a fan?

    You're trying to twist things because, frankly, you're talking absolute nonsense.

    Your original statement was that he cared MORE than any fan. I called you out on that because I believe you're talking bollocks.

    The situation hasn't changed just because you're now trying to back track and pretend I'm saying he doesn't care about the club.

    I said he probably cares more than most fans on here because while you are tapping away on here talking crap and probably moaning on Twitter - Rhodes has a job to do.

    Keep trying...

    While earning money.

    Do earn money for watching Bradford City?

    Not saying he doesn't care but he sold to these jokers and needs to help get us out of this mess .

    He's a businessman.

    Doubt he is working for free.

    What a ridiculous statement Fordy. The Club was sold in good faith to properly funded people who passed the 'Fit and Proper Person' test.
    Thousands have got good jobs over the years then proved to be not competent and this is no different. Not the fault of Julian or Mark it has turned out like this. At least Stefan is sticking with it.

    Yeah to be fair..

    Take it back. I accept the hammering on that one.

    Think the poster upset me because he was making out that someone cared more than someone else due to them working at the club.

    We'll care extremely for Bradford City, money, where you live, jobs, history, what car you drive doesn't come into it.

    Think too many are putting themselves first and no is the time we all put Bradford City first. We don't need a crowd pleaser as manager. We need the best man for the job that will get the best out of all the players.

    Mr Rhodes being here is the biggest positive of the season so far make no mistake about that.

    Thanks for that.
    Now, driving around in your Merc indicates to me you may be a talented guy with time on your hands. Why not put that to use, drive to VP and offer your services to Julian and join Glenn Ackroyd and myself in trying to help, boy do we need it.

    I'll take you up on that but believe me I think everyone on here and all the City fans around the world admire and are thankful for all the work you, Julian, Glenn and Rupp are putting in.

    We'll get there and it might be a rough ride but we will get there just with me at your side it will be a little quicker ..(only joking). Have to laugh at moments like this right?

    For me we don't have a bad bunch of players but now is to make all players feel they've a chance to play. 12 cup finals! Fans are getting caught up with expecting mega performances straight away without taking their life in concentration. I'm guilty of it.

    3 points off safety - we have a chance! If we can stay up then I truly believe this club kicks on massively!
