    The thing is, we've been using Walker and Pointon in midfield and then bench then both. Barely any time since Saturday to work on what a Smallwood/Pattison/Odour midfield should do so we end up looking clueless.

    Some important questions need to be answered now, enough is enough.


    Such as, what colour was this new roof? Did we use Emulsion, Matt finish, One Coat? And what about the exterior? Tiles, slate?

    Thats what I'm saying, was totally down to Bobby's individual skill - nothing to do with team play, tactics (what tactics), and certainly nothing to do with our snorefest of a manager.

    As someone posted, it probably means lego head will still be with us

    And the usual suspects will still find something negative to say.

    You know who you are.

    Pointon showing seasoned professionals how to play the game. On the front foot, direct and aware.

    Cookie's equaliser doesn't mask the truly depressingly turgid performance served up tonight.

    What spin I wonder will GA come out with after that.

    GA out

    I turned the TV off at 9pm, absolutely terrible. Best decision I've made, not bothering going.

    There's no way Rupp will get rid of GA at this stage. Four points off the play offs with a game in hand. Not saying he should or shouldn't be. Just can't see the club paying up his contract at this stage.

    No, we will keep him through Xmas and give him the January window, by which time we will be bottom half. We'll then sack him in February.
    It's a Bantam thing!!

    He needs benching as he has no positivity in his game. It's sideways or back. And the constant pointing to his team mates does my head in.

    Have they got the balls to give GA a proper grilling on Radio Leeds?

    I suspect not.

    He was absolutely seething with the performance. Calling out everyone from Rupp to GA to the players. He lost it a bit with frustration in the end and swore so they had to finish the call.

    Unfortunately, he's the epitome (on the pitch) of what's wrong with us. He's slow, average in terms of passing, poor at shooting, risk averse in the way he thinks and doesn't seem to be able to inspire those around him. Time to move on from him. It's been an expensive (probably) gamble that's had no upside.
