It would have been interesting if the Crusaders would have turned us over at there place, which they nearly did.

And Quins, we could have dead easily been well stuck at the bottom

Another 5 mins against both Crusaders & Quins could have seen us lose and if Dureau's drop goal attempt had gone over!!!

Doesnt bear thinking about

Just heard Potter on Radio Leeds and he's not that confident of us making the top 8.

Mentioned the lack of confidence and said it's not down to lack of effort.

I take consolation in how bad things have been at various points since 1863, and yet the club endured on each occasion and came back stronger.

Well thats just what you want to hear from your coach, not confident about making the 8. He must have no motivation skills whatsoever.

Oh come on. If he'd come on and said he WAS confident of making the 8, then you'd be saying he was being unrealistic.

I would be more worried if he said he thought we would make the 8!!!!!

If we up our game we might achieve this score against Wigan next week.

I agree, but I think what Asim's hinting at, not too cryptically, is that the willingness to excuse the McNamara years and the admirable optimism shown by many on here is partly the cause of why we are where we are. I imagine that will continue, although Hood's talk of being prepared to bring in Mason etc, might indicate he does realise it's time for a gamble or two.

Oh, I saw Asim's hint alright. Don't think it follows though. Maybe if they'd been more patient with Todd's supposed mediocrity they'd still be where he left them, thirty odd places above where they are currently.

Is it not a Bradford problem that we accept third rate everything Council, City Centre, The Odeon the list goes on and on unfortunately. I think it's great we have patience and understanding just maybe too much of both.

Colin Todd left City 3 points above the relegation zone after winning 3 of his last 20 games, before his supposed "stars" were sold before his sacking, the writing was on the wall. The rot set in years before that anyway.

I'm not stretching a point to say I've seen this all before, City fans, and the powers that be, would blame referees (against us because we were a small club for the level we were at, that slowly morphed into being against us because we were a big club for the level we were at), the Football League (who had it in for us because of our admins) and, of course, we've got no money (it's undeniable that money helps, but as City have shown in the last 4 seasons it's not everything). The one difference is that at least those in charge at Odsal have made some investment in infrastructure and the future with the training facilities.

Accept failure and you'll soon get it.

At the game today and didnt know which Rovers would turn up. The average one did but Jesus it was enough. You are seriously bad. Some of the balls passed had to be taken Goalkeeper style they were that wayward. Made us look decent and im telling you thats not easy.

We didnt have to play well to win today. The Bulls looked beaten before a ball was passed. I think if we were playing another team today we could easily have been beaten. Everytime we got near the line it seemed like Bradford had already resigned themselves to it been a try.

It happens all too regularly now.
