    I am indeed a Know Nowt, the difference between me and others is that I require the evidence to substantiate claims. I therefore do not go on a public forum making claims of which I know nothing about.

    Good shout Hawksworth Bantam. Thus far, eleven pages of dross - nothing! You guys, just stop it, you have no facts. Free yourselves - go out there instead and live your lives!

    Equally your point of view is condescending: you are assuming that it's better for people to "go out and live their lives" or have the ability or desire to do so. As much as people on the thread may not have any facts or data to support their posts, let them post if they want to.

    You've called people Know Nowts despite having no idea of their history, experience or actual knowledge. You've done exactly the same thing you're accusing them of doing. Hypocrisy!

    Imagine people expressing their opinions on a forum! :scream:

    My mantra through life is and always will be, Opinions are like people, everyone’s different and I respect that.
    But my point is simple, if op’s are going to make claims they need to be able to back them up with facts.

    Why? This is a forum for a L2 football club. We're fans and discussing rumour and hearsay is what we've all done for generations.

    Anyway, I called you out for being a hypocrite and you've said nothing here to dispute that. Carry on fellow Know Nowts.

    To be honest I’m only bothered that Rupp backs up his promise to the people of Bradford to repair the damage. That means getting the club to the edge of promotion to the Championship. That means investing money to fund that repair job. If not… cut your losses and go.

    I don’t see hysteria at VP, I see apathy and to the business that is a bigger danger. The only team that has progressed this year is the commercial team.

    Its 9 (NINE) years since we last had success in the league at City. I think the fan base is just bored now, fed up of being sold false promises & COVID lockdown last year showed that there are other more enjoyable ways to spend a Tuesday evening/Saturday afternoon for some.

    Fail to back Derek Adams in January with serious signings that improve the first team & the message will be clear, further days ahead where a home draw vs Sutton United is seen as success.

    I said at the start of the start and in bloody pre season we will draw more games than we should because we lack quality. It was clear.

    However, we now have a manager that can't improve players.

    Not defending Adams but as I have said elsewhere.......1 more goal in those 11 drawn matches and we would be at least 4 points clear at the top..

    Oh come on mate..Come on. Shake that head.

    Football and sport doesn't work that way.

    We knew when the summer transfer window ended. Sparks let Adams pull his pants down by coming out with some bollocks about not using the loan market in the summer and it was clear the players we signed are not good enough.

    The manager can't improve players and is negative in his play. Shambles all round.

    This time the fans will voice with their feet and not attend games. It's happening already.

    I completely endorse your comments Hornsea. I too will miss Wetherby,s honest input. It was good to get an insiders view on relevant issues. Disgusting treatment towards someone who had the clubs best interest at heart.
