    He's so much more than that as well. He's the type of player who will demand the ball and
    everything good we do will go through him, he'll be the conductor of the orchestra!
    I would imagine the likes of Walker, Chapman and Cookie will love playing in front of this guy
    he'll be the one to find the killer passes..........something we lacked last season!
    Top class signing City.

    That makes sense to coincide with a big tent signing?

    That's 2 6'4 lads in.

    Definitely addressing this set pieces issue.

    If we can remain right at the back and nab a few winners from corners, it's looking good.

    That's Clayton's replacement signed up then.

    Looks a decent signing assuming he is over his kidney issue and can last another couple of years.

    I would have been inclined to offer 12 month contract though to be honest, but I guess the 2 year contract sealed the signing?

    As most have said, we now need some younger players with pace.

    I wonder whether that's it now permanently and we are waiting to find out whether we are getting our loan targets. Hope not, still think we could do with 2 or 3 more permanent signings.

    Rumours thin on the ground, hats off to the twitter guy who said last week that Taylor and McDonald were signing.

    No doubt McDonald is a good player but does he solve the problem of the lack of pace and mobility in the centre of the park? No.

    He's had a kidney transplant so he'd be under pretty strict orders with regards his convalescence, I know my daughter has only just got back to "normal stuff" and its just less than12 months ago when she had her husbands kidney transplanted.

    They had inside info last season and what is this Twitter site called? Inside Bantams HQ or something? ( I’ve forgotten) but both the predictions from that account a week in advance were accurate.

    I think the ref and opposition might just get wise to that formation just before we kick off

    You suggest he’s slow, I suggest one is slower. Why would you be unsure?
