| So why not track him down and tell him that.
What good does it do coming and saying this to the fans who have done all they can and the ones who are already hurt most by all of this.

Aren't there enough problems at Cas for the Cappers to wet themselves about without twisting the knife in these poor devils.

HURT you dont know the meaning of the word, we were kicked out of the top flight after finishing 7th in 95 for "the good of the game" i have seen Rovers win the league and cup and now we were sacrificed for Paris. Rovers a club that in i think 64 gave the then Bradford Northern several players to get started again. Then some years later in our hour of need we get a public remark like that of one of the big decision makers of the time. Not ONE of you fans took him to task you all bought into it. Sorry like i say what goes round comes round

What has any of this got to do with our fans and our situation?
No one said you haven't been hurt in the past, doesn't mean as fans we aren't hurting now. Takes a really bitter sort to come on and spout rubbish on a day like this.

Seventeen years of clenched fists and anger - I'm happy for you that you're now happy.

Gingdong and myself post in very different styles. However, I can undestand his emotions here.
In 95 when caisley made those comments, he was given resounding support from Bradford fans. The hurt, despair, futility etc we were experiencing at that time was rejected by fans of Bradford and scorned/mocked by some in the RL press - this went on for a number of years when the subject of P&R/licencing is repeatedly debated as internet fora became the vogue.
So yes, I can understand why there is some bitterness. I can understand why there is a lack of sympathy or empathy here from some with keener memories than most or by some with a stronger sense of injustice.
I know that you will all be feeling the crapola right now. But that's nowt to the place we've been this last 17 years. Yes I know it wasn't Bradford fans fault. Some weren't even born then.
But some with long memories still hold Caisley part responsible and remember the mocking and lack of support from Bulls fans back then.
Bitter??? Perhaps.

No-one benefited more than Bradford from our relegations as recently as 2004/6 but you just move on mate.....the suits will always be gunning for clubs like Cas/Fev. You can't hold the fans responsible and it's them you are taking a cheap shot at (and before you say it, yeah just like Chase on Ropati).

I can understand where you are coming from.
But there is a massive difference in a lack of sympathy/empathy and coming and making a thread on a Bradford forum on the day we've been put into administration.
Bitterness, and caring more about another clubs downfall than your own clubs wellbeing. If Leeds were in the situation we were in, I wouldn't be gloating right now I can tell you that.
Any real RL supporter does not want to see this happen to any club.

| I don't want to indulge in a petty war of words Mr Gingdong, but there really is no need for that. Very sad really .... on a whole load of levels
