    Hold tight boys and girls, do not let your nerve go now. I see some wobbling, but I have faith in you all and your belief that Messiah manager is coming to save us all; please keep believing, keep the faith, prayer will succeed indeed.

    And remember your sacrificial extra fifty quid this year to support Rupp's marina fees in Palma de Mallorca fund, will ensure you a place, if not a £10 knackered plastic seat, in heaven.

    Very much agree Park. Arrangements are obviously already in place. Adams and Morecambe's silence, and indeed ours, feels to me like all interested parties are trying to do the best they can in terms of doing the decent thing for their respective clubs and fans. Whether they go up or not, Morecambe fans won't be happy to see Adams go. But he stays to do his all for their cause right now.

    Can you provide any link that Rupp has actually taken any money out of Bradford City? Quite interested in this angle.

    That statement suggests we are being fair to Morecambe. There are many statements that could accurately describe the way Sparks has gone about this. Being fair to Morecambe isn't one of them.

    Let me explain ...assume Morecombe up !
    EF League 2
    Newport
    Forest Green
    Tranmere
    Salford
    Exeter
    Carlisle
    Leyton Orient
    Crawley
    Port Vale
    Stevenage
    Mansfield
    Harrogate
    Oldham
    Walsall
    Colchester
    Barrow
    Scunthorpe
    Sutton
    Torquay - potentially
    and BRADFORD CITY !

    Whats not National League about that ?

    We left the Football League three years ago anything below EF League 1 ceased being professional football years ago ? EF League 2 is to all intents and purposes National League 1 !,

    All of those clubs bar Port Vale, Scunny and us have flirted with the NL in the last 10 years or so.

    Thats the point and why next season no ifs not buts no maybes no could haves should haves Bradford City must be promoted automatically back to the English Football League 1 proper !
