    He was very poor Park. The fact our brittle central defence looked so comfortable, says it all really

    I was surprised he left Clarke on the whole game. He did nothing wrong and was his usual tidy self, but I never felt like he presented much of a threat. I would have liked to have seen Wood given 20 or 30 mins down the left. I know he hasn't got Billy's skill but his pace and energy might have given us something extra. That said we had some top quality crosses coming in today from Caddis and Chicksen and for the most part our forwards got nowhere near

    Anyone else think @JonButterfield@JonButterfield had organised another fly by yesterday. Don’t think I have ever seen a passenger jet so low over VP

    Clarke was never Motm as long as i’ve got a hole in my arse. Any commentator who thought he was should give up football/

    Think Ball prefers to play up front? Might be worth a try.

    I always want City to win.

    I want them to improve and I will state if we haven't been good enough or things need to improve on or off the pitch

    Finding positives in performances and results does not mean you are happy if we play in the conference or equivalent. That doesn’t make sense

    thats why I said 'it makes it look like...' rather than saying outright thats what it means, I don't think anyone on here would revel in us doing badly, positive mindset or negative.

    it's just how it comes across, just as it comes across to keefly that Fordy would like to see us get relegated.

    Really not looking forward to Saturday, and its been a while since that.

    Thought we turned a corner under DH until he reverted to hoofball.

    We could get hammered on Saturday... I'm hoping DH has something up his sleeve though the little ginger pep :)

    If we lose on Saturday the only thing up Hopkin's sleeve should be his P45. The guy has run out of ideas/tactics, if there were any there in the first place.

    “Plymouth will come here and try and play. Derek has done a fantastic job again. They try and play football and score goals. They are an attacking team.

    “They’ve been on a fantastic run and why would you want to change a winning formula?“

    That’s a bloody good question David. Why did you....??!

    Looking forward to the hoof that’s not hoof this afternoon.

    Interesting/alarming analysis!

    Bradford have conceded seven goals from open play in their last five matches, but crucially, an incredible six of those goals derived from their left side. The team, certainly recently, appear to be defensively solid on their right, but open on their left.

    A goal scored by Shrewsbury is pictured below to highlight the type of chance that Bradford seem to concede.

    Pitch looks like its reverting to how it used to be. I hope it's still under warranty.

    Before the chicksen abuse arrives he's made 4 or 5 brilliant tackles in our box.

    Clarke off midfielder on urgently.

    And bring bruenker back.

    Jones used the phrase "total football" at the beginning of the second half. Tim whatever his name is, praising Clarke saying we've got an additional Jack Payne in the team now.

    I wish I could have whatever they were drinking at half time.

    We're terrible. Shaky defence. No width. A striker who can't make the ball stick.
    All areas we were promised would be addressed in the window.

    When we’re on track to take a single point from home games against Fleetwood and Plymouth, it’s pointless about what others are doing.

    So from two games, where 4 if not 6 points were imperative we have got 1. That makes walsall shit or bust for me with the run of games we have coming up. We could be out of it and heading for league 2 before easter
