    Depending on who you ask, Bolton had assembled a great team with Doyle, Sarcevic et al, we beat them, haven't scored against two League One sides (which is par for the course), and we drew with Colchester.

    Our results against League Two sides are actually 1W, 1D.

    Is that that bad?

    I think maybe wait until the coffee is brewed and tasted before commenting on it's aroma.

    Rahic going is what dramatically changed my opinion of him.

    Before it was R+R, and if both had left the club when we demanded it as a fanbase, great.

    But we're not judging R+R anymore, we're judging Stefan Rupp. Had he been unable to rid the club of the MAIN antagonist, fine, I'd have demanded his departure. However he actually dealt with that problem.

    He bought himself an extra page, a blank one, on which he alone will be judged.

    YES
    How can you defend a team, when the team can't defend.
    Tonight was a shambles.
    Wait for it!
    "Back to Basics"
    "We go again"
    Heard it all before it's frustrating and monotonous.

    Do you genuinely believe Stefan Rupp is the man to take Bradford City forwards?

    That's the key to it. Were just handicapping ourselves in that respect. It feels more like a desperate Jan transfer window than the start of a fresh season.

    2-1 win over Bolton - we can't defend
    0-0 draw with Doncaster - we can't defend
    0-0 draw against Colchester - we can't defend

    Taxi!

    No idea.

    He could be, but not in the Geoffrey Richmond hands-on style.

    This page, you know the blank one he attained back in November 2018... It could read better.

    Spot on. We are a world away from those days. Playing catch up and losing.

    Not really my comments are based on tonight's schoolboy defending.
    This thread clearly states Lincoln not any of the above games.
    Five Nil and the taxi is full of City strikers no room for the defenders should of hired a mini bus.

    So you accept that the team can defend, then?

    Because they have proven that they can.

    What you are saying is that they didn't defend tonight.

    Well then we're in agreement, but that is not what I was discussing, and in fairness you replied to my post :)

    Nope, never spoken to him, or, contrary to Fordy's incessant posts, even received an email from him :joy:
