Come on guys I get where your coming from but this game could be the defining game that see's us making a serious challenge for an auto place, reading Bowyers comments some important players coming back in the very near future.
Get your sens well wrapped up and down to the Valley of Dreams.

 

Pathetic second half.

Mellor put the worst individual performance in memory. Simply abysmal.

Lost patience with Bowyer.

Tide has turned.

 

Look everyone as an opinion on the current state of play but surely even the most hardcore supporter must be feeling aggrieved with our poor performances home and away.
Who do you blame?
The manager,The Players?
Supporters pay to be entertained on a match day and it's not happening.
The club want 20,000 plus to commit to buying a cut price season ticket, that doesn't mean we have to put up and watch the same old lacklustre performances been served up week in week out without a voice been heard in anger.
Unexceptable City.

 

Lack of leadership, no composure, slower to the ball, poor movement off the ball non committal in tackling - features of the team today.

 

30 mins left, they moved Gillead to right back. I'm thinking, 'great, get Connolly on and go at him'

We moved Wood to left wing. Then replaced Cooke with Reeves.

We were lucky to take a point today, and didn't deserve to be 2-0 up in the first place.

 

Will it be on ifollow.....I might watch too

 

Sorry I just cant accept that for one minute, of course we would prefer to get out of this league playing great attacking football, but the alternative of playing entertaining footbal yet getting no points for doing so will soon ware off.

 

Steady on tiger.
I'll repeat if it's only the one game and we walk away from Valley Parade after getting beaten but playing free flowing football you believe the fans will be buzzing because of the entertainment they have just witnessed for 90+ minutes.
Well this fan wont be happy getting nothing from a home game and possible seeing us drop down to 9th in the league, I can hear it now as the hordes of Bradford City fans leave Valley Parade, that's much better didn't we play well we really should have got at least a point from the game we battered them.
Sorry @Chipolata I still can't agree with your post, but that's what a forums all about fans have different opinions.

 

I'll go to the game hoping for a good performance against a lower team. Couple of early goals and a 3-0 win will be great. Now if its only a win by one goal and not a very good game I'll still take the three points we need to get out of this dam league .

 

Thought this was a match day thread . Any one up for it today ?
Nice over the Aire Valley today .

 

If anyone thinks that Bowyer is getting sacked while we are 5th and 2 points off the top 3 then you are seriously deluded.

 

Cashed out my Bradford to win and both teams to score bet just in time. You just know it's coming. Relieved we didn't lose.

 

Park Bantam will be along soon to tell us we are tracking to plan and all is well!

 

Agreed.

Bowyer looked the right appointment to steady a madhouse club, but more and more Bowyer looks like the perfect manager for an empty stadium, just like at Blackpool.

Tactics? Fine if nobody has to watch.

Poor subs? Fine if nobody notices how awful Mellor is playing.

Mentality? Fine if you're going for the safety of a bare minimum target of 7th (maybe).

Empty stadium manager.

 

Exactly. We keep getting told that the pitch makes it difficult to play good passing football, but Scunthorpe passed us off the park today.
For a ten minute period in the first half we actually had some movement in our midfield. But once we got two up we reverted to eight or nine men behind the ball and conceded space and possession. We deserved to lose that game. Wonder what excuses Bowyer will come out with this time? Just dreadful.

 

I'm still in shock as to how Palmer gets 90 mins. We were on the attack and Vaughan made a run and it was the most obvious time to pass and he just...turns around? He's beyond dreadful and negative, never going forward with his play. Then you have McCartan who just ran at them. Palmer would hold up traffic in a Concorde, he's so slow to act.

 

In terms of the game.

We were lucky to be 2-0 in terms of play.

Thought Doyle and Vaughan tried but no service.

Akpan did well for 60 mins.

However, overall as a team we were shocking. How Mellor gets in the side I never know.

Wood was poor.. extremely poor.

Palmer a disgrace to the shirt.

Scunny should of won he match and they deserved too.

The mods have been giving me a hard time lately and I really can't be bother with certain people not really telling it how it is then laughing in all our faces.

I speak the truth.. to all that didn't go to the game today... we were awful! That second half was an embarrassment!

Bowyer in my mind won't take this club up!

 

I've seen some sh!t performances in recent history, bur Mr.Mellor stand up for your gold medal son today

 

Best passing move that we produced today. Someone thought the stitching looked a bit dodgy and tried throwing it into the goal but it went for a throw-in.
