It's only a lifetime habit that is keeping me interested in City under these clowns in charge right now.

I would gladly take relegation and start again with new owners than suffer any more under their ownership

 

How poor do we sound, yet again. Just cannot see Hopkin, or indeed anyone else, being able to turn things around this season, with such a terrible squad they assembled in the summer.

By the time January window comes around, I suspect we will be too far adrift in the bottom four.

So demoralising what Rupp and Rahic have done to our club in the last 18 months or so.

 

Shouldn't be hopkin under pressure. We all know where the problem lies and its firmly at the feet of rahic and Abbott. Our team is where we deserve to be. The team isn't good enough and that isn't Hopkins fault. Changing another manager will not help. Rahic is ruining us. I pray January can save us. Time will tell

 

4 managers In around 12 months and you should realise it’s not the manager who is to blame for the position we are in

 

Half time and the "big man" playing up front to give us "presence" has won a total of f$&# all in air and has at different stages been beaten to a header by the entire back 4.

Ball and Miller must be sitting there thinking about retiring from professional football if they can't get in the team in front of that plodding clown.

 

Needs action now. Hopkin should bring in his own coaches. Abbo and Drury should be sacked. Abbo should have gone when Collins was sacked. He bought into Rahic’s foolhardy plan. Hopkin probably thinks if he brings in his own men it’s gonna reduce his January funds. He can’t take that chance. Rahic might not release money anyway and at this rate Hopkin might not be here in January. He must act now.

 

Hopkin doesn't get a free ride from me anymore I'm afraid. The constant selections of Brunker and NKP - currently our worst two players is crazy.

The style of football just isn't working. We don't have the players to play hoofball and we're not troubling opposition defenders at all. Surely a manager should be able to see this and be able to change his style.

If Hopkin continues us playing like this we'll be cut adrift by Christmas.

 

The penny finally drops with the away faithful. Edin out chants.

 

Yes it's a sad state of affairs isn't it Wilsden.
In 53 years of watching City, I've never felt so disillusioned about my beloved club. It's all down to the current owners who I am finding it difficult to even write their names now.

 

No, I don't want to hear another word from the clown unless he says he is selling up along with his mate Rupp

 

It doesn't matter what he tries to implement, what selection, what system, he has a garbage squad.

Says it all really.
There is not a manager on Earth that could stop today's team from being absolutely HAMMERED by the team of 18 months ago.

 

With the shite that he has available what do you expect him to do?

 

Is 'interested' the right word?

Outside of the habit of commenting on here, I could care less about this version of Bradford City.

I mean, there's nothing to support imo.

I'll never stop being City, but my enthusiasm is waning drastically. It will be restored, but likely only after those tits sell up and piss off.

 

Poor Gary Jones, almost weeping on the radio.

 

Imagine if the owners did splash the cash after the play off final defeat, we would have been in the championship now with good income from TV, sponsirshsp etc etc. Doing it on the cheap means the only way is down.

 

What reaction?. A few on social media out of 16000 supporters expressed concern.
Doubt he was ever seriously interested to be honest

 

They are not even on the bench, and not injured either apparently.
I think Gibson has blown his chance of making it here actually, as for Seedorf, been poor every time I've seen him

 

Defo pen. Sat close enough to confirm that. Just shows how low we've descended since Stuart left. Payne is the only player of any note. The rest are just dross, not including the keeper, though. Wouldn't expect any sound player wanting to join City in January. Thanks for nothing, Rahic. This is squarely on you and nothing you try will fix it. You'll have to learn to know relegation soon and mass fan desertion.
