    Perhaps it was due to the fact he was playing for Morecambe at Oxford?:unsure:

    If Rupp wants atleast a few pennies back from his investment then he needs to throw some cash in in Jan, two quality players could make all the difference.

    Thinking he doesn’t care about that now.

    The club are going down the Rhodes route now of talking accountancy bollocks for being unable to move forward.

    I don't think its just a one off with POC. He always looks like he's got a mistake in him. He was the main culprit for the goal yesterday and last week he's given away a soft penalty. OK, that pen didn't cost us, but that's 2 big mistakes in the last 2 games leading to goals. He just doesn't look solid to me.

    League two forever with a city that has a population over half a million, how embarrassing.

    They've sussed out that he struggles when he is on his own because he doesn't suit that role as lone striker. It was noticeable that against Swindon and early in the game yesterday he looks much better when Lavery was close to him. Another thing noticeable this season is opposing defenders getting away a lot, probably because Cook doesn't go down easily or react to the challenges.

    Agree FB. You just know there’s a disaster waiting to happen. I feel the same with all the young players who seem to dive in unnecessarily, Watt, Sutton (not so much) and POC in particular.

    I think it was tongue in cheek.

    I dont rate Songo'o at centre back in a 2. Not bad in the 3, but would like to see him in that defensive central midfield role sat just in front of a 2, which has to be Canavan and Paudie for me with this squad

    Or even better, we sign a quality centre back and striker in the January window.

    Most of those half a million probably aren’t interested in City, the fan base is slowly moving away from the city in my opinion.

    This half million thing I keep hearing is a bit of red herring. Just because you live under the umbrella of the Bradford metropolitan District does not mean you automatically become a potential fan. Go to the far reaches of the district and you could be closer to a premier league club and as Hunty alludes to i walked up from the interchange yesterday and you wouldn't have realised there was a game on.

    Irrespective of the result and other misses, their goal was the second biggest refereeing joke of the day, beaten only by the muppett at Orient who forgot to play the 4 minutes added time at the end of the first half and played it at start of the second before blowing up, turning the teams round and starting the second half.

    A number of posts relating to the merits of Bradford and other towns and cities have been removed from the matchday thread. They have been transferred to an existing thread where similar issues have already been discussed. It's here ...
