    Absolutely awful. Why do we allow them so much space and time onto our back four. Saw someone blaming O’Donnell for the first goal I think that’s extremely harsh. Unopposed run and shot from the edge of the box and a free man it falls to at the back stick for a tap in?

    Gareth Evans does not come across well on those highlights? Awful. Doesn’t even look to be trying when players pass him. Is he not fit or legs just gone? Baffling signing

    Shows pure desperation from McCall to throw him straight in.

    You are right about the rugby.Dont think it matters that they are internationals.Our players are professionals.The most a manager of professionals should be doing after a full week of training is maybe tweaking things.Not clearly telling someone to get closer to their man.That should be a given.

    Pritchard was hung out to dry on Saturday, the role he was asked to do is not his game, should have had Scales in that position from the start. If the lads good enough to be on the bench he's good enough to start. I know we had injuries but stop playing players out of position.

    They have a very strong squad on paper for this level but it’s if they can click. Wellens did it at Swindon but maybe no pre season and games thick and fast might go against him at Salford and struggling to get his ideas across.

    Jon, the full article is in the T&A https://www.thetelegraphandargus.co.uk/sport/18883721.cooke-bantams-biggest-injury-doubt-salford-game/

    In particular it states, ‘Assistant boss Kenny Black confirmed that Clarke trained outside this morning but Cooke, who had to come off at half-time, has been limited to working in the gym alongside Lee Novak’.

    No expectations from the game. Love to see 3 points, which based solely upon the Bolton v Salford game, is a real possibility.

    As its away from home and we are criminally poor away from home, so best I can hope for is a draw. If Cooke and Clarke are out, it just compounds our lack of potential for tomorrow. I mean Zeli and DMH....

    What a thoroughly poor way I am thinking about this club (note I do not say my club) that I can't see us winning tomorrow.

    Rupp out.

    Don't agree. For all his failings, Kai could not be accused of jack of effort.

    Exactly
    Kai never lacked effort and I never implied he did

    And probably bigging up the opposition and always sounding like he’s worried about them.
