    That will never happen in a month of Sundays mate. They have proved time & again they only go public when they want a pat on the back for doing something positive

    The Gent interviews when he joined with either himself or Sparks are a cracking read now looking back. Just one of the quotes from SG....

    “I will take full responsibility for every player, good, not so good, indifferent, that has come into this football club for as long as I’m here as head of recruitment. It will be my head on the block. They are my recommendations and I’ll live or die by that."....

    Have you the link for that interview?

    To paraphrase some of those comments, this would make a good banner poster.

    I will take full responsibility for every player, …… It will be my head on the block……. I’ll live or die by that."

    Bradford City head of recruitment Gent has no time to waste | Bradford Telegraph and Argus (thetelegraphandargus.co.uk)

    Last few paragraphs on there. Also some bits about signing assets on long deals and that we wont have a massive turnover of players every summer..... that lasted.

    Not a penny more should be expanded.

    Not a penny more to JCT600, the club, to T & A, No clicks to Width Of The Post etc.

    Let the sponsors and anyone else connected to the club feel the pain also. That will send a message also.

    You just don't want us using Jimmy's car wash emporium who sponsors the tea bars behind the midland road stand.

    Let's hope so none have shown they are capable of getting regular game time.

    It would be absolutely criminal If he isn’t recalled on January 1st

    Cook a fraction of the player he was last season, Oliver been out for 8 months or whatever and still to prove himself, Smith still finding his feet

    We have been pathetically goal shy all season, while the leagues highest scorer fires Swindon up the table

    Bring him back at the first opportunity

    What if he is happy where he is? Yes I know he is under contract, but doesn’t want to return? How disruptive would that be? If he wants to come back fair enough. If he doesn’t we should sell him and Swindon get first dibs, but if they can’t afford given their financial state then he has a decision to make, but staying there for the season is not an option in my view.

    Sadly he has to do what WE say. How he reacts is the issue . Swindon are struggling to pay wages so they are last in line probably . They are becoming a financial basket case according to my readings last week or so.

    I'm not sure he will fit in. GA seems to have gone a bit more physical.
    I can't see Young running in behind or holding the ball up.
    If we bring him back and he flops, his value will tumble.

    He’l be brought back in January, that much is a certainty

    His issue was never with City, it was with Hughes

    The only decision GA has to make is whether he keeps him, or he sells him to a League One club, an uses the funds elsewhere in the team

    We must bring Jake back and play him. He will score goals with the right service and propel us up the table.

    Listen to his interview on You Tube given after yesterday's match v Mansfield. I reckon he would need dragging back to Valley Parade.

    Yeah he's at a footballing side, we've just abandoned that for long ball.

    Not a good fit for us.
