    Has McCarten been injured? Cant recall as to why he hasn't featured at all during pre season.

    I was replying to a post that suggested he might start - I don't think for a minute that he will, hence my comment. I have no idea what that remark in the YP means, all I know is he is back training with the squad and Bowyer has commented that he looks good. That doesn't suggest to me that he's a long way off but maybe you know different.

    Saw Gibo in Tesco last night buying Krispy Kreme Doughnuts. Shay was also browsing the aisles.
    I asked Shay if he would be playing today but didn’t get a positive .I suppose the decision will be made today.

    He was saying at the Bingley event that both his calves went in pre season. Didn’t say too much other than he felt pain one evening in both calves. Can’t remember the details (other than it was walking up stairs in Nandos when he felt it!) but he did mention that it was rare for both to go at once & was hopefully not too far away from coming back.

    Another expensive City flop, who needs binning as soon as possible.

    No I don't know different at all but Shay seems to be one of those unlucky players who gets almost fit and then gets another injury as he's about to come back. Hopefully that's not the case here.

    Just great! Aren’t they suppose to keep themselves loose in the off season, ie running etc., ?

    He didn't seem to be bothered too much by injuries last season at Lincoln. Maybe they don't have a Nandos there.

    Krispy Kreme donuts and Nandos. I could be off the mark here but I'm guessing we don't have a club nutritionist. (by the way I like the odd Nandos but I'm not a pro footballer)

    Because maybe he is what you call injury prone.

    Bradford City have far too many unlucky players and either need better recruitment or to stop showing they're a soft touch and get these players out of the club.

    We wouldn't let Doyle go out to Swindon if that's the case would we? We not that foolish are we?

    Yes, funny that he's not even on the bench.

    Hope Danny has a good game.
