An end of season dinner, you say?

Great!

Maybe it will reflect the season, only in dinner form?

 

Name all these grizzled old strikers in L1? Three will do who have played against us.

The opposite applies they are all mostly young extremely mobile and have left our defence , no matter who was in it chasing shadows, especially under Adams.

 

Proctor, for one. But I'm useless at knowing or remembering the names of opposition players.
All I know is that when I watch City games I see Paudie winning nearly every aerial duel he's involved in.
I agree that he's not the most mobile and therefore vulnerable against smaller, nippy strikers - just like 95% of the CBs in L2. If only we had one or two of those mobile goalscorers in our squad.

 

There aren’t many centre forwards left in that mould any more. Over 95% play the lone man up front, unless they are mobile and nippy, they are toast. Just look at our CF!

Defenders have to be likewise or they are toast too.

Look at our current two and include Canavan/Kellerher , which entirely sums up our defence this season.

It speaks volumes…… round holes and square pegs!

We need to be honest and stuff sentimentality, just because someone wears their heart on their sleeve does not make them an asset that will get us out of this division.

 

Turns out, Paudie won POTS for the second year running.



They also announced Walker's two year deal.

Bobby Pointon won the Academy POTS.

 

Ok Fordy, we get it. We are not Liverpool . You really do not support Bradford city or like them, but do you have to knock every single thing they do. Or is it you just love to wind up people on here. Either way it is now becoming repetitively boring.
Thank god its the end of the season and hopefully less negative posts from you.

 

I don't think me mentioning him not wearing a tie is negative. Was a tongue in cheek statement and something light hearted. However - I do think it pays to look smart. Look at Hughes in his suit each weekend (was wearing a nice City tie on Saturday), compared to some track suited manager. Brings a whole air of professionalism to the club in my opinion. Yes I know Pep and Klopp also go casual, but they don't really need to be dragging their players and whole club up by the scruffs of their necks like we do.

In Paudies case, maybe it's just his fashion sense. Probably wouldn't suprise me if him, or some of the other lads weren't wearing socks either. It's "the thing" apparently.

 

I don’t in summer and I’m much older than these whippersnappers…. And yes I fecking hate sandals.

 

Ha ha No mate.

 

If Paudie didnt have a tie on its prob cos he was fighting in the bogs midway thru and had to take it off after it got yanked!

 

He comes across humble and very approachable l, the direct opposite to Derek Adams, whose appointment was a mistake from the very beginning. It went against the strategy we were going with in having Turnbull as recruitment director and to change that philosophy cost the fans another wasted season. I happy to see an air of excitement for the first time in a long time but that doesn't mean Sparks should get away with basically shafting the fans for a season. Even the announcement of Walker at the awards last night was a great way to deflect the attention from what has been an absolute disgrace of a season. The fans have backed this club despite this and Sparks should be very thankful of that.

 

Hopefully not with a suit though!

its a NO from me.

 

Oh no. That’s pretty dire

 

Paudie was the only choice really hope he stays but likely to move higher

 

And so they should! @Fordy117 happy once a fortnight is enough for anyone to bear!

 

Canavan. Joke ……..

 

I'd be embarrassed to receive POY if I was one of the players in what has been another nothing season. Save them the shame and don't have it this year.

 

Awarding anyone such an accolade would be a spit in the face of every single fan that has stepped foot inside VP this season.

 

Clearly its Watt

We missed him yesterday. Plain to see.

 

We missed him due to the change in formation to accommodate him. But nowhere near the best player of the season. Hard to pick one though as the season has been that bad. But different to the relegation season where Lewis O'brien was head and shoulders above every player in the squad despite it being the worst season I've probably seem in 40 years of watching them.
