Salford might be the bookies favourite but they haven't factored in boreyaball have they

 

I’m not a huge fan either. However, every player gets a clean start with Adams at the helm. I expect us to have a much more coherent and well drilled system, which might unlock a level of performance/consistency we’ve not yet seen in some.

 

Hopefully so. I thought Sutton looked good at the beginning of T&S's winning run. He got his tackles in but cut down on the wild stuff. His pace off the mark allowed him to steal possession and break oppo lines and he got a couple of decent goals. His form tailed off later, but then so did nearly everyone else's. I can see him being a useful player under Adams, even if he isn't the most technically gifted.

 

Have said before that by 10 games in we will have a good idea of where we are going.

As for this thread being pointless, why do you keep posting on it then?

 

QPR might not go on to win the championship and Rangers won’t win the champions league, but what it will do, is give them a massive confidence boost to carry into their respective seasons. Had both been stuffed the Managers / Coaches may have questioned their tactics and with a few weeks before the season starts, maybe tried to change their approach.

You know all this and your having fun going against the grain. I imagine you’ll be sat there waiting to pick holes in the next positive thing the club do just to be controversial.

 

Sacrilege you may say coming from Bradford, but Seabrooks are probably the worst brand on the market in my opinion

 

Quite right Kevin. The Authority is now the Competition and Markets Authority. They did look at the recent purchase of Asda by the Forecourt guys from Blackburn, cleared the stores bit but the deal hung on them disposing of a number of Filling Stations which they agreed to.
The concern would be a foreign owner in the case of Morrisons, but the current front runner bought Majestic Wines and run it as a retail operation. Wait and see, the press are forecasting other bids, including Amazon.

 

I bet Bezos wakes up every night thinking "I must buy Bradford City".

 

The bar I worked at in Bristol only sells Seabrooks as bar snacks. Bloody great day when I found that out

 

Guiseley away. Also known as Timothee Dieng day.

 

That's so 2016. Lee Angol day now.

 

A win in the Sun. 2-1. Thought Adams might need sacking for conceding a goal....
Wish I was there tonight, if it weren't for family isolation I would have been. Really wanting a City fix. Might get down on Saturday.

 

Great to see city after so long at a ground within walking distance for me. Not the greatest game especially second half which was really scrappy.

Cook and Cooke stood out for me. Not sure on the fullbacks Oscar (using first name as can't spell his surname!) seems a bit error prone and was at fault for their goal.

 

Angol must be pressing to be included in the starting line-up the way he is doing?

Good to see City treating friendlies more seriously than I can remember, involving the first team, even against non league opposition with players obviously keen to impress Adams

 

Seems that Adams clearly rates him:

Interesting to read that Adams sees Reece Staunton as a midfielder rather than a central defender.

 

No one is creaming themselves. But Adams doesn't strike me as someone who chucks compliments around lightly. He saw Angol 'terrorise' Morecombe last year, in League 2, so it's clear that he he has the ability at our level, not just against non-leaguers.

 

Walk a mile in this? You trying to finish poor Bronco off.
