[Topher]

Cheap pints>>>Morals surely

the moral of running into the ground one of the few places low income families can go out for a meal. hate them types

 

[Monkey Tennis]

Up against the team with the best away record in football history. We can't score and our best defender is injured. Maybe we should try and get this one postponed too.

 

[EricSabin]

and for the anti brexit neverspoons people...
The Montpellier, Little Ale House and the Harrogate Tap.

Winter Gardens it is then

 

[Huntsman94]

Exeter away - If we can better last year’s 5-0 loss that will be an achievement. Not confident at all.

Exeter away - If we can better last year’s 5-0 loss that will be an achievement. Not confident at all.

I would take a draw. Exeter's home form is excellent, but we know from experience that Caprice and Ray can be got at defensively.

 

[AdamStag]

All depends if we get any players back for Saturday, if our only option is Bowery as a lone ST it’ll be a minor miracle if we beat Salford.

Can’t see how it would be i thought the suspension was only 1 game, though understood he was unwell also, bowery is decent as LM and did excellently 2nd half against doncaster as a wing back almost, but played uptop against carlisle he was hopeless, which he is as a forward - hopeless

A game between the 2 form sides in the league really, if there’s a winner they’ll only be a few points off the playoffs which is remarkable given where both clubs were a month ago.

 

[Kauto Star]

Is there an 'Adams Out' sentiment among the fans yet?

Not vocal at games, a few on social media

Our invisible owner Stefan Rupp and ex head of recruitment Lee Turnbull receiving most of the blame.

Rupp has no interest in football or Bradford as a whole, we all wish he would lower his valuation expectation of our club and openly come out and say we are for sale.

The abject apathy shown by our owner who hasn't even been to watch us for over 2 years has filtered down to most supporters now.

 

[Devon_Lad]

Don't mind if they let a goal or 2 slip as long as they get 2 or 3 themselves. They've been great going forward and scoring the odd goal.

 

[Chris FGR]

Oldham v FGR - worst home record v best away record. Latics have picked up 7 points from 10 home games, whereas we’ve picked up 24 points from 10 away games.

Looks as close to an away banker as you’re likely to get at this level, so we’ll probably lose.

 

[Reremnart]

We may have got 7 points from our last 3 games but other than the second halves against Bristol Rovers and Bradford the displays have been pretty woeful. If you offered me a draw now I`d snatch your hand off but I can only see a home win in this one sadly

There is also the factor of the planned fan protest to take into account, whether that be them not attending the game, walking out during it or maybe some other form of disruption. On paper a fairly easy game to predict, but as we all know the game isn't played on paper, and with some significant unknowns...that may influence the outcome in some way...who knows which way this one will go.

 

[The Terminator]

We’ve already beaten Crawley this season 4-0 in the Papa Johns, but they’re a bogey side for us.

Jackett has hinted that one or two may be rotated. Harry Smith injured his hand on Tuesday but played on with it apparently.

Crawley have a nasty habit under Yems of being really poor but then pulling a win out of nothing, that Appiah is a useful forward at this level and Tom Nichols is back in their team.

 

[Gatekeeper]

Putting money on a Sutton win. Can see this being our worst result of the season. 5-1 Sutton.

It’s likely we will have a forward in central defence. Two second choice fullbacks and two third choice central midfield players. Otherwise we are fine.

 

[kieran_vale]

DC sounded his usual guarded self on the players who picked up injuries at Rovers in midweek. If was to hazard a guess would say Worrall will play for a bit at least and Rodney will be rested. Other one may be what happens with the goalkeeper position. Stone has started the last few, personally I think Covolan is ahead of him but the former has done alright in fairness to him. Will go with this as Vales lineup

Covolan

Cass
Smith
Jones

Gibbons
Pett
Conlon
Benning

Worrall
Garrity (as a false nine type role)
Politic

Wow, really bad injuries then? Cheers mate.

4-1 Sutton.

 

[BarraMatt]

Ben Garner reckons if a long away trip gets called off the away team should get the points.

Getting his long journey excuses in early too if they don't get a result. Almost as if ourselves, Carlisle, Hartlepool etc don't have to do it every week.

no way will we want it called off - our best chance against Ipswich on Wednesday is Josh Kay having a blinder - and he has to get this 1 game ban out of the way against Swindon....

Did he say what a long trip consisted off?

Distance in miles, distance in time or distance in realities!

Appiah has been ill. Not said what it was but there will be a fitness test before the game.

We had 18 players fit enough to be named in the match day squad on Tuesday. Not all of them were fit enough to play the full game though. We're not the only team struggling but this season just seems to be a real injury fest.

[shoddycollins]

Barely even registered among United fans that we're playing this weekend... apparently we are though, and it seems like there are still a good few games to go before our relegation is confirmed, which just seems like a waste of everyone's time to me, just give everyone who still has to play us the three points and be done with it.

You're not even in the relegation zone

We'd have been promoted with ease last year if we'd just been handed the points for all those games that were postponed in January if they were away.

 

[hellogregory]

Just can’t see us scoring a goal. This is without doubt the worst strike force I’ve ever seen in the football league and it’s going to cost us our league status.

Saw a stat earlier. From our 20 league games this season, we’ve failed to score a goal in 11 of those games. We should be renamed Carlisle nil. It’s fucking disgraceful.

Tomorrow’s game is a question of whether we can keep a clean sheet and pick up a point because we ain’t scoring unless it’s a late consolation when the game’s over and the opposition have their feet up, but even a meaningless consolation is still unlikely from this shower of shit.
Millen has lost every single away game so far and I can see that continuining.

Stevenage 2-0 Carlisle

Another nail hammered into our relegation coffin.

 

[BarraMatt]

How many nails are needed for that coffin like?

 

[hellogregory]

How many nails are needed for that coffin like?

But about 10 more I’d say. But more may end up hammered in just for the sake of it.

Ridiculous statement by Garner really. Yes I get its expensive to travel and if games get called off on the day even more so but to say what he said is stupid.

I fancy Orient and FGR for top 2. Partnerships with goals. Vale for third

So Adams had no input on signings? What a disaster for you guys!

Surely he wouldn't have moved from morecambe without promises of signings and a decent budget?

You have had worse teams. Trevor Molloy and Richie Foran? That Roddy Collins team were awful

Roddy was a terrible manager, the worst ever. Anyone who wants a laugh should watch the tv series on YouTube about his time at the club.

But as shit as it was, I’d still back that Roddy team to outscore this current team. Overall It was a worse team and played worse football. But this team is inept, it can look half decent, but when and where it matters it’s totally ineffective and toothless. You can be as good as you want, but if you don’t score goals you won’t win games.
