    Let's wait for Adams to say we had 6 forwards on with 2 wingers etc etc

    Yes, Derek but they're playing like an under 10s team with no understanding of a formation.

    If you put wingers like Vernam on then play him on the bloody wing, tell him to stay wide and then get forwards into the box.

    The comments of Morais are virtually the same as Jones made at the Carlisle game.

    Not grabbing game by scruff of neck.
    Failing to build off the massive support you get.
    Disjointed structure.
    Players not knowing their roles.

    Why is the co-commentator seeing it so clearly game after game and yet nothing changes.

    Everyone from fans to radio summarisers knew the formation wasn't working, players playing out of position, however, he who is never wrong or at fault cannot see it, mind boggling.

    Why on earth for example did he drop Vernam and play Daly out of position there?

    Morais is excellent on the radio.

    Said we played Daly out of position. Hence why he had a poor game.

    I think you know I'll only stop "keeping the faith" mate when my times up, that doesn't mean I'm happy with the present situation or the football on show, even yesterday having a few beers with friends and family was one of the reasons I attended, caught up with a fellow supporter who I'd not spoken to for 20 years always something new watching Bradford City.
    I did say my post may piss a few off but I thought most fans on here had a sense of humour obviously touched a nerve with RC bantam.

    They give us the extra 1k or so then will easily have more than them ............if we have nearly sold out our first allocation by today then I can see a fair few taking up the next batch on Thursday / Friday ............. still it’s depressing isn’t it that we will probably have more away fans than some of our fellow competitors can muster at home ................. just wish our owner would come to realise what the hell this club means to us ........ 11th in League two and we are more than likely gonna be taking 3k to an away game .......... how many clubs within the bottom two division could must that support on the back of 4 years of dross ...........not many I bet

    Canavan definitely needed dropping. He has been very underwhelming all season. Not saying Songo'o is the answer long term, we could do with a new central defender to partner Paudie in my opinion. Kelleher is non league material and cannot see him playing for us again, and Adams clearly doesnt either rate Staunton, or just feels not ready yet

    Another hopeless pedestrian performance..
    Are the players really this bad or is it a management/coaching problem ?
    This club is cheating their loyal long suffering supporters
    Gary Jones must despair at the quality of 2 of his former clubs..

    Stuck by Adams all season but I'm getting fed up of this. And his football is not inspiring me.

    Disjointed, painful game with a lack of synergy, fight and appetite.

    Last week, far too many got excited about a potential play off push. Today (and Carlisle a fortnight ago) layed out so many of our issues.

    Totally agree, another very lacklustre performance. I've said it before I don't know what Adams plans are game to game, he just repeats the same rubbish. It's almost as if he tries not to lose and hopes we can knock something somehow and hold onto it.

    Created nothing at Carlisle, created nothing against 11 men of Salford and created nothing today it's not good enough.


    We can sign as many strikers as we want , but until the manager takes the brakes off, plays a formation that suits the team, gets wide players into positions that can hurt teams, and has strikers facing the right way, then we still won't score for toffee

    Just to totally piss everyone off who attended todays game at Rochdale, who remembers todays date back in 2013, coming back to Bradford on a massive high after getting a result at Villa Park to take us to Wembley :(.

    Unexpectedly met some other Queensbury Bantams and went to the Eagle Hotel to start with...got special dispensation from the landlady to go in with my youngest (14, but they had a NO KIDS sign on the door!!). Sam Smiths, beer good but 10 in there, 8 of us from Queensbury!!! Then wandered up into the town centre and came to The Regal Moon so went in there for a few. Decent enough atmosphere, full of City fans and loads of people I knew so good for a couple of hours. Got a taxi, 4 of us and was £5...booked it back to the station after the game as well!! Another decent day out, shame about the football!!

    Questionable line up,Adams having no impact when analysing at half time and lack of ingenuity on the pitch. All down to dire coaching and management.Think you would at least see some positive signs of improvement after the amount of time he has had to make an impression here. All this with a complete revamp with science added to his backup team.So many questions and few answers as to why performances are stuck in a rut and consistently not near good enough.

    These were actually on the left side of the stand (as you look at the pitch).
    Unfortunately it didn’t put the kids off for life and I still have to watch City every week ☹️
