    You would have thought that would be the clubs view on it too but someone has dropped a ball here. We could have had a 20,000+ crowd tomorrow.

    I'd take a draw and no new injuries if it was offered.

    When was the last time we would have been underdogs playing against Accy? They have had a brilliant start, just 1 defeat and 5th in table. One hell of a job Coleman is doing there

    A bit of a Bantam Talk love-in developing on their fans messageboard. As I alluded to earlier this week, a good set of fans generally, as we saw the last time we played them

    I guess (I am sure someone on here will know the answer), that they will have a significantly smaller wage budget and will generate less sponsorship, gate money etc.
    The people who really should be asking the question are our owners!
    I guess one significant factor will be that Accy are a relatively stable club, where there is gradual change rather than the brutal annihilation of the squad and replacement with a group of strangers. But then again I do not, ‘know about football’, the way some others do.

    Although I live in Newcastle I work closer to Durham so know plenty of Makems. A far more down to earth bunch of supporters compared to the Toon. In many ways Makems are like City supporters, they have to put up with a “big” neighbour who suffer delusions of grandeur (us with L**ds, them with Newcastle - the local media / sky sports almost suck off L**ds / Newcastle whereas teams like us and Sunderland aren’t fashionable enough), they never seem too far away from the next crisis, they’ve had owners who have been out of their depth, and they know they’re shite but they’re loyal. A couple of lads who work for me who go everywhere are thoroughly enjoying this season as they’re seeing their team compete which I can relate to.

    Even I got a mention on there. Think I’m gonna leave this forum to on where I’m more appreciated.

    But seriously every time we’ve played Sunderland there fans seem a good bunch. Been to Stadium of light too and no issues. Jason Mcateer ran the show and we lost 3-0 I think.

    Every time we seemed to play them we got stuffed apart from the odd game. The Cup recently been kind to us.

    I remember Julio Arca being given the freedom of Bradford to come forward and score at VP once.

    Good times.

    Looking forward to this afternoon and it’s the first time I am for a long time. A proper club and a sell out away allocation

    Prediction - heart says 1-1.
    Head says 1-2 Sunderland.

    Genuine question...

    Do we have ANY fit midfielders?

    Akpan - never showed up now injured
    Wright - see above
    Devine - ??? Now injured
    Colville - seemed ok now injured
    O'Brien - injured

    Blame the pitch? More likely rubbish pre-season Im guessing

    Who's fit to play???
