    I cannot remember who the original poster was, but after the barnsley game it was mentioned the pitch has lost its "true bounce" and is not a great playing surface.Something to keep an eye on to see if this is true.

    "We have sorted the drainage, but buggered the pitch up!"

    Time will tell.

    We haven't stagnated. We've gone backwards.

    Apparently bringing through youngsters is a quality of his so fits the criteria perfectly

    Had to sort the pitch after letters from FA and EFL according to people on here and the scoreboard was following the fans fundraising along with redeveloping the changing rooms. Looking at the Tifosy page the fund raising closed in April 2016 and Rahic / Rupp took over in May 2016....so can't really give them credit for that...

    You quoted this
    "And it's great all you wise people knew that Collins would be a disaster. Bully for you all!! I put the the first thread up after Collins was appointed and there were very few happy with the appointment but realised it was a last throw of the dice by Edin after he'd decided no one else was worth a contract from the candidates he'd interviewed, and they were correct, just logical thinking hardly rocket science.

    It's put us back 2 months because we are now in September and another coach has had to be appointed to turn the team around, if Hopkin can do it quickly it will be less than two months but if it takes him till the Bristol Rovers game that will be two months, it's not the point of our points lost but about our performances getting those few points.

    I didn't as he'd never done before and so based on the principal that everyone has to start somewhere (Richard Branson got his chance via the Apple Beatles company) I was happy to see what he can do - rather than shaking my head from day one.
    I'd Suggest that's defending the original decision wouldn't you ?.

    Rahic's biggest error of his Bradford tenure-ship is not doing in what he believed in at the start of last season and moving on from Stuart. I would have strongly disagreed with this - but his lack of nerve has actually probably cost us half a season in progress.

    Edin's biggest error was not having the balls to sack McCall, and you would have disagreed if he had sacked him I would suggest 99% of this forum and Bradford City fans would have agreed with you, in Stuarts first season he gets us to Wembley and he was talking about wanting to sack him, seriously didn't that ring alarm bells in your head maybe suggesting Edin the control freak being in control is dangerous, which the vast majority on here said when he promoted two U18 coaches, the man is deluded @banktopbantam@banktopbantam and if you can't see than then there is very little point in debating the rank bad decisions Edin has made since he came to our club.

    I bet the bringing through of youngsters will take a back seat until Dave Hopkin has got the team stable and starting to generate some points and hopefully the attacking football promised by our glorious leader.
    Just think mate your email might have been the thing that "broke the camel's back " :unsure:with regards Stefan getting involved, take a bow Park :thumbup:

    “Criteria” - a load of bollocks Rahic thinks

    I saw the pitch during the friendly with Sheffield United. It looked just about perfect, although I thought the grass was long, you could see the boot prints of the players. I am sure Richard the pitch man can sort any problem with bounce, although I agree all sounds a bit far fetched.

    Not the time for a protest when we've just got a new coach and the players are low on confidence (putting aside their obvious flaws). Just get down there and support the team on the pitch, they're the only ones who can get us points.

    No need to protest the biggest slap across Edins face is for him to watch the product he’s created

    It’s criminal he took a club a top 6 club from perennial competitors to Leyton orient
