Those stats about how many on target shots Bravo has faced and how many he's conceded (20 and 14 I think, without checking) - how many of those has he got even a finger-tip to? The ones I've seen, he has been nowhere near them. He's a fucking disgrace.

YOYOYOYOYOYOYOYOY!!!!!!!!!!!! does Guardiola keep playing him when the whole world is calling him a clown and laughing at him?

Had one for 20 years mate and been all over Europe over the last few seasons


So you can appreciate that some fans will have got to a certain point spending thousands and thousands on City over the years and if they're not enjoying it anymore then they're free to stop going. Whether that's because it's the same predictable crap every week or because the FA and refs are ruining he game.
Surely you can understand that mate?


You must've missed my earlier post where I agreed it is very expensive to go to games. Look a few posts further up


I'm not saying they're going to stop going because it's expensive.

It's like he's a ghost. Nothing hits him, it goes straight through.

Bollox Maze, you know the score on that. And before you dive into me, think twice. Trust me, I have a very good reason for not attending but as normal, I spend my life following the club.

Now, shoot away sunshine, I'm all fucking ears!

Sunshine? Don't be like that mate, it doesn't suit you. Read above, I've already stated my point.

No but I can understand fans not going to the games if they feel they aren't getting value for money, it's the ones that are saying they've had enough of city altogether who I'm having a go at. I don't expect every fan to go to all the games but to stop supporting your club because things aren't going your way is childish and I thought we were better than that. After all we had a go at the rags when their season ticket waiting list disappeared after taggart left

My apologies, I should have thought before I decided to question another Blue.

Lads, we've just been absolutely dicked. Emotions are high. Tomorrow's another day and we'll be fine.

Yes we are struggling at the moment but some of you lot calling yourselves city fans perhaps aren't as big fans as you make out. I'm hoping most of these reactions are knee jerk and that you're not really a bunch of soft arse mardy twats


But back in the day it was enjoyable and a rollercoaster. It wasn't the same shit week in week out. And we hadn't spent 100s of millions on 'top' players. And football wasn't as expensive.

There's loads of reasons your post is bollocks but there's just a few.


Fuck the money. You either support the club or you don't. Back in the day it was enjoyable? Yeh I loved the 2 successive relegations. Wanktastic


Back then I fuckin loved going to Maine Road. Absolutely loved it! We were shit and got relegated but I loved going.
Yeah me too.

I moved over to the North Stand when we rebuilt the Kippax, I never went back. I used to love the crack at half time on the concourse singing Rag songs getting pissed. I say getting pissed; you had to buy 2 pints because you would lose half from each one trying to get away from the bar. :) The banter between Kippax and North Stand

I still class Bradford City away day promotion back to Division 1 as one of my best memories as a City fan. It was a cracking day out. Why ?, because they were all real City fans, not fucking Japanese tourists, or Glory hunters, real bleed blood blues.

We seem to have lost our identity on this journey. I can understand some fans becoming disillusioned with football, in soulless football grounds, with soulless corporate fans, holidaymakers, glory hunters.

I see the same old faces away from home. The lads who have been going for years, including Bradford, and some young uns. Not so many football tourists in amongst them, I feel safe saying.

The blame lies with two people first one is cheeky, he hasn't done his job which is getting in new players that improve the team and also losing the older ones that aren't quick enough anymore.
The other is pep, he knew he was coming here way into early 2016, he should have told the club who to move on and who to keep.
Now were left with have a team of past it players, who can't adapt.

I can see him making a quiet exit when the season is done. It really could not have been any worse but the regression over the last couple of years has been there for all to see. The squad is piss poor. Pep must have been seething to be handed Bravo, stones, Gundo and Sane at the beginning of this season. A horrible transfer window. He can't work his magic with the poorest squad he has ever been given.


This is a key point for me and one of the main reasons I'm trying to keep the faith that all will come good in the end.

There isn't all that much different in terms of personnel than last season, which wasn't a great success. Even with square pegs in square holes we'd still be where we are imo.

Major overhaul required, I mean I love Zabba but it's clutching at straws to think he can play that role for more than one game.

Defence is the immediate concern though. It's a joke that we haven't even attempted to address 3 of the 4 positions + decent backup
