    No bloody movement up top.

    Nothing wrong with passing sideways or back. Baca and Liverpool do it all the time.

    Problem with City is we've no movement up front. The ball had to go sideways and back
    mostly.

    Suppose you missed that 40 yards cross forward pass from Wright to OB though?

    If Wright put in a man of the match performance then we just won the league, do fans actually watch the game.

    Nearly put me to sleep thank god it’s over, well done Wimbledon though they can thank themselves lucky they didn’t play even a mediocre team or they’d be down. Awful team offered nothing.

    Liked Bowyers interview after the game, spoke a lot of sense no sugar coating it, sounds like he’d happily see the back of them all. Make it happen Gary.

    Meanwhile on the Pulse,

    “Gary, you must be pleased with that performance”
    “We huffed and puffed but didn’t really hurt them”
    “It was a good performance rather than great Gary”
    “We weren’t good enough”
    I’ll let you guess who said what.
    Lol.

    Yeah I thought that as well from JT.

    GB sounded VERY clear on where what type of player we are going to recruit.

    Great to hear the manager call it like it is rather than the happy clapping crap from the Pulse. I think we can see what Bowyer is wanting to do, he knows he doesn’t have the quality of player to do it.

    Pulse trying to convince him it was a good performance was embarrasing.

    He wasnt having any of it.

    The Pulse commentators are a set of imbeciles. Constantly trying to polish turd it's highly frustrating and equally awkward, just tell it how it is and stop trying to pull the wool over listener's eyes.

    My Dad can't get to games any more for personal reasons and every game he's convinced we put in a decent shift and had plenty of chances to score and/or win the game. That's solely down to the Pulse's weirdly biased commentary.

    It's actually giving listeners the wrong story.

    Love the interview from GB on the Pulse, brutally honest. I think he's going to do well for us.

    You can tell from listening to Bowyers responses that he thinks Thornton is a dick.

    ‘We haven’t quite been good enough have we’?

    Like the Titanic wasn’t quite floaty enough.

    We’ve been a disgrace. An embarrassment to the league.

    @EwanJM@EwanJM this Bowyer won't sugar coat performances and I don't think the relationship is working at the minute. As @Faithful Bantam@Faithful Bantam says above.

    It seems highly unlikely the Pulse will be covering Bradford City next season anyway. Is that true? I believe JT said he wasn't sure they' will be.

    If it is to continue then changes need to be made in my opinion because Bowyer is straight talking.

    Absolute titanic of a squad Fordy nothing you can do with it. You can't turn shit into gold I'm afraid! Judge him on results next season, he admitted this season has been crap.
