    In the last five games we've kept three clean sheets and conceded only two goals - one an og and one a deflection - despite facing several of the division's best strikers.

    It's great that Canavan is here, but surely you don't mess with a defence with that record? Paudie and AOC have both been excellent recently. I don't see why you would drop either of them and neither needs a rest after the enforced break we've had. And FCD has done nothing wrong either.
    Games will soon be coming thick and fast so there are bound to be injuries and suspensions. Canavan will get his chance, but in my book you keep faith with those who've done so well recently.

    If they've reunited the Wright brothers, maybe they're flying up?

    As it stands, we're the only game in the country postponed due to weather, despite having a playable pitch. I think its fair enough to be pissed off and ask 'why?'

    Lxxxs have been fined £200 for breaking lockdown protocols for making a pointless journey to Crowley today.

    Thanks for pointing out the obvious, the game isn't on but this is a forum to discuss such things.

    Make him wait and make him earn it. No one should be guaranteed a spot. You get your chance you take it.

    very frustrated considering no fans are attending!

    I fancied a home win today. I think it would have been "after the Lord Mayor's show" for Crawley and a good time to play them.

    Im starting the 'No to O Connor' at right back campaign now.
    Not fast enough and not creative enough going forward.
    We need to improve the team not maintain position.

    So wait you aren't allowed fans in the ground and the pitch is perfect but the games called off because its deemed unsafe outside the stadium its off. Unsafe for who ffs

    The argument must be that absolutely no one should travel to work in any job in Bradford tomorrow, because of the conditions of the roads and pavements!
    There must be a Council meeting at the moment ordering everyone to stay at home.
    Do not leave your home.
    Anyone who chooses not to go to work (often in areas far more removed from main roads), can say that they went off the advice of these experts.
    Gob smacked that the ground staff and external contractors operating the machinery managed to get to Valley Parade.
    The most absurd, ill judged, decision I have seen for a very long time.

    Genuinely pissed off. The weather is milder, as forecast, the roads are fine. This game should be on.

    Don't forget we drew at their place only a few weeks ago, restricted them to no shots on target.

    In circumstances like this, with no fans attending, why not just postpone by 24 hours and play Sunday instead?

    So have Bradford MBC, who are responsible for Burlington Street and the surroundung area, declared a major incident and closed the area off to pedestrians and vehicles? Is a referee professionally competent to comment on the state of the roads/pavements in the area, are they a qualified meterologist?
