    Isn't it the other way round? Don't ambassadors pay the club for the privilege?
    If @Fordy117@Fordy117 has a merc then he must be rolling in it.

    I'm guessing Scannell is being paid by the minute to save us from the dreaded deficit.

    What we know and Bowyer appears not to yet is that he cannot fool the vast majority of supporters with poor football, He needs to up his own game as well as sorting his formation and side out that at the moment are poor.

    Well if we are judging Bradford City and not Blackpool. Then , yes, the evidence is there to suggest 4 4 2 is better than 4 3 3. I am pretty sure we gained promotion to the top flight and two Wembley finals with that formation.

    It's not about the formation. It's about the players and matching a system to the players to get the best of out of them.

    That leaving James Hanson unmarked at a corner may result in a headed goal

    From what I've seen he always looks for the difficult ball which is fine when it works like for the goal but most of the time its going to turn possession over. He should be going for those more sparingly and when the situation is most fitting and keeping things simpler most of the time

    Dont think anybody, other than Bowyer, can. Its a mystery what he sees in him to offer him a new contract

    Agreed. Naivety due to a a limited amount of experience I'd say.

    you don’t have to be a brain surgeon to work this out. Cambridge at home and Grimsby away oh and 10 men for nearly 40 mins in the first game and looked totally inept in both. Why would it get any better next few games ? God help us when we play good teams
