    Can't stomach the idea of league two next season. Not going to bother with a season ticket for the first time in 30 years. Pulse on about the ref but we were crap again today, our manager leaves out our best players we have no shots on target, we are a shocking side.

    Call it 7 points with our goal difference. The pain is finally over. May as well play a few of the kids, give them a bit of experience. Might not be a nice experience though.

    He's probably thinking. . . . . . if only they hadn't hounded me out, we would still be in league 1 ready to conquer all next season!

    Unless Ive missed it. Still heard nothing from Rupp or Rhodes since Hopkin walked
    There seems to be no long term direction from anybody at the club

    What the hell is happening to the club we all love

    This is more concerning to me than our inevitable impending relegation. The club is in serious decline. A succession of managers have tried and failed over the past 18 months and things continue to go from bad to worse. I have seen some really grim times in my 45 years as a fan, but this season has reached a whole new low for me.
    I really fear for our future. Make no mistake - the players we have currently contracted for next season will not be competitive in league 2.

    Bought my season ticket today .
    Promotion back to league 1 next season
    It's gonna be a good year .
    My fave ever season was in league so it can be fun down there.

    Real possibility of playing my home team Harrogate in a league match next season. Never thought I'd see that .

    The one certain thing is if the fans desert the club like a few say they are going to it will die. At moments like this and when coup de grace occurs think of how good days like Wolves away Liverpool in the premier and defeating Chelsea on the own ground they were so special because of all the crap we had endured before.
    If fans stick with it we will have good days again maybe not so many for the likes of me but for the younger supporters it doesn’t matter a fig who own us it is our club get yer tickets bought

    If fans were party to any plans the club may have then yes they could have confidence to re new their season tickets
    The silence is deafening from the club as to its future intentions (maybe there aren't any) even down to the new manager having to go solo at his introductory press conference no one there to publicly welcome him to the club how bad did that look
    We need leadership from the top someone to kick a few backsides on and off the pitch and make known to the fans that people in high places really do care for the club
    Don't blame the fans for deserting the club when the players obviously couldn't care less How many on that coach coming home tonight are reliant on Bradford City for a living next season no wonder we are in such deep trouble

    The players are transient we aren't it's the club we love not the current players.

    The fans are the long term future of the club and the club are doing nothing to attract fans from the next generation The club we love has gone now been trashed by people who had no interest other than to change everything and as proved not for the better.
    Go and watch the passion/effort displayed by your local non league team and tell me one performance this season where our players have matched that
    We need to rebuild and whether that is a step too far or not remains to be seen

    Didn’t think it would take long to see the words pulse and referee in a post.

    Should Rupp and Bowyer stick around there’s a fair chance of bouncing straight back, L2 looks poor when the likes of Nicky Law or McCartan go down there and do well, it’ll take time for the Rahic damage to be fixed but we should win a few more than this year you’d hope at least.

    The coverage at times today was laughable, saying we weren't playing that bad when in truth we absolutely dire. Going on about how we deserved a point because of our supposed good defending when in truth a good side would have put at least 5 or 6 past us. And saying we deserved a point when we didn't have a solitary shot on goal is quite frankly taking the piss.
