    It was so simplistic but was perfect for the occasion, they chanted when in possession "we've won the ball we've won the ball" then when we turned it over "we've lost the ball we've lost the ball we've lost the ball", it went on for a good 5 minutes there couldn't be any doubt neither the player's or the management team didn't hear the disgruntlement coming from the stand opposite, and what was worse it was our leader who must have given away or lost possession 5 or more times.
    Once again with all the very good possession before they scored their first goal we looked toothless and you could see if they did get a goal we'd struggle but no one expected the roof to fall in as it did.

    Lowest of the low comparing GA with two tier Kier. GA is miles ahead of him (still) !!!

    For me Alexander is getting away with delivering absolute mediocrity but talks like hes doing way better

    I've said this for a while, Raynor is climbing the ladder and has stopped asking challenging questions for fear of rocking the boat and the other guy is just wet.

    Alexander is getting away with delivering mostly dross but no one (his own hierarchy, local press and radio) is holding him to account or asking the questions the loyal and long suffering fans want answered

    The question after he says that is…..why do you think that? splutter erm well I will have to look at the replay. You had at least one full half of the match to go and we were still crap.

    Absolute woeful away day yet again. Those horrible spineless bastards really do not deserve such a cracking fan base

    So 3 shots on target all game.

    2 definitely from Kav in the second half.

    Can’t remember the other one but even if it was the first half then GA’s claim that it was only the mad five minutes that defined the game is absolute nonsense.

    We didn’t trouble the keeper in the first 27 minutes and it was just catching practice for most of the game for him.
    We just don’t do enough to test opposition keepers on a regular basis.

    Smallwood had a shot from about 25 yards that sailed aimlessly wide.

    I’m struggling to think of too many goals (if any) from outside the box this season.

    As yet I've not heard anything concrete that will make Rupp leave, we stop purchasing tickets and he runs the club on the proceeds we get from the reduced sales and reduced advertising etc.
    We had 2,000 traveling fans there today, there are maybe 1,000 + on here you ain't going to make any quick changes by not supporting the club, I don't know the answer but it you and others want to stop financing the club and watch games on TV that's your prerogative but please don't class fans who attend games as needing their head reading.
    If by doing what you suggest it would defiantly make him sell I believe many fans would support it in one way or another but as we both know there are no guarantees in football, I'm sure you don't want to see us go non league as I don't think we could survive with our present set up but not's left fall out blaming each other.

    Raynor is a total wimp. The first thing I would have asked GA is why does every single cross or corner go directly into the keepers arms

    The second thing I would ask is what he thought about out singing about losing the ball, getting the ball, losing the ball…

    To be truthfully honest, I'm absolutely fed up to the back teeth of Bradford City. Rupp has destroyed this club and my love for this club is waining by the week .

    Rupp out.

    I doff my cap to you and the other regulars who travel away to most games.

    I've not bothered with an away game since Rochdale under Mark Hughes.

    I'm struggling to drum up enthusiasm to travel a few miles down the road to watch us at home now. It's just down to a lifetime habit, certainly not enjoyable most games.

    Whilst ever we have an owner who clearly has no interest and a CEO who is way out of his depth , but thinks he isn't, not sure what the answer is.

    I want Alexander out, but only if it's Sharp alone who is tasked with the job of replacing him.

    Merry Christmas Steve

    We got away with it today. Notts should have scored 3 times in the 2nd half. Our forwards must have thought Bass still plays for us the number of times they passed the ball to him. Our midfield was the least mobile ever, their midfield had acres of space and didn't have to put up with a tackle. Beginning of the season, we had 3 mobile midfielders; one we got rid of to div 1, the 2nd got a terrible injury 10 mins into his career with us and the 3rd is allergic to grass. Wonder what our recruitment team will bring in next month with the fortune that SR is laying at our disposal.

    They're going to get that excuse in early, aren't they? "Well we couldn't shift him on in Jan because he was injured."

    Never even thought that. But that sounds very feasible.

    @bailiff bridge bantam@bailiff bridge bantam Wish I'd taken your parking advice earlier cos that was a complete waste of my time and money. As nothing a performance as you could wish to see. The only goal I've seen us score in 180 minutes was courtesy of a Christmas gift from Swindon. And today taken to the cleaners by a side not in great form and being questioned by their fans. Absolutely pitiful and gutless and the worse thing is knowing it ain't really gonna change.
