    The strongest possible message is a boycott. En masse. Not just a 30% reduction on the gate.

    But it's the owners who brought these players in not the manager for me it's EDIN and Abbott who need to feck off

    Protesting wont change Edins personality. Just stay away, I know its not easy. After having a season ticket for 32 years I haven't been for about a year now. Hard to stay away at first but after a while it gets easier. Now I hope the club which is still using the Bradford City name even though its nothing to do with the Bradford City that we were once part of goes bust.

    In a quiet corner somewhere, Tony McMahon will be laughing his tits off.

    It doesn't matter whether Rahic is at VP or not - the protests must still be done. Don't worry, the news will get back to Germany like wildfire.

    No k block flags tonight
    People already staying away
    Guy having a go to the directors box
    Traffic jams before the final whistle tells it's it' story
    Rupp should sack Edin and pay Baldwin whatever he wants to come in and steady the ship in the background

    When does Hopkin take some responsibility
    Edin in Germany hardly able to stick his oar in

    Edin out is only the first piece there's a big rebuilding job behind the scenes nevermind the sqaud we had the chance to kick on instead we folded something needs to give bigger than just Edin going

    Think i'd rather City were owned by mrs krankie right now. That's how bad it is.

    Is it really the boards fault though?

    When you look at the players this isn’t a group who should be relegation fodder. They are largely proven players at this level or higher and it’s them not the board who are failing. As a group they seem to have become mentally weak and almost become worse by the game since Hopkin took over. They don’t need protests helping reinforce that weakness, they need support and they need the manager to start actually motivating them which would help if he went back to basics as trying to force them into a style that with the current players is never going to work just makes games harder than they should be

    People are just not giving a shit anymore. There’s a resigned indifference - it’s such a mess.

    Once people stay away - as I now am - and start to switch off, doing other stuff to fill their weekend, it’s hard to get people re-engaged.

    Make no mistake - we’re back to square one. It needs a full rebuild, from the top down. From a club within touching distance of championship football to a laughing stock, a club that aspires so be like Accrington Stanley, inside a year. The worst start in our 115 year history. Bottom of the league. 92nd out of 92 clubs for 2018.

    Yeah. That's what was lacking tonight and Saturday. Extra support, and an arm or two round players shoulders....

    Never mind ‘owned by’, I’d settle for her at centre half at the minute.

    The players last season weren't relegation fodder either but were utter shite from jan a new set of players this season different managers/head coaches but same shite this is definatly more than a players revolt.
