Imagine losing all but 6 of your players and then being given the lowest budget in the football league to rebuild a squad. Imagine being able to recruit 16 players and coach them in to a team that could go 2nd on Tuesday. Derek Adams is the greatest Manager we have ever had and it was brilliant to hear his name chanted with such passion today. It really gives me a buzz knowing that there are a few in the crowd that still hate the King doing well.

Jordan Slew was a solid 9/10 today, covered every bit of grass on both sides of the pitch.

They need to open that red container outside the home terrace so people can drop off their apologie letters for Derek.
The reason why we got relegated wasn't Derek but Jason the Shyster

Excellent gate of over 4500 with nearly 400 from AFC which means that we had circa 1000 walks ons if you take 3100 season tickets into the equation.

Just a word for my MoM Jordan Slew. What a transformation in the player. Whatever DA says to him then it's working big style.

Once again Stokes was magnificent....telling players where to positioning themselves and giving encouragement throughout the games until he went off injured. Just hope it is't serious. Rawson may have been Captain but Stokes was the vocal leader. Excellent.

Heard that our groundsman is taking up a position at Fulham. Wish him well.

:D :D :D

Absolutely agree in my opinion King Derek by far the best we have ever had and I go back over 50 years. Jordan Slew. What are they putting in his tea???? Worried when I heard he had re-signed for us but he is transformed from what we had before.

UTS.

Have a wander over to the Bradford forum :lol: :lol: :lol: Some fans are beginning to wonder if the problem with their club wasn't actually down to Derek!

Exactly. I love how everyone in the squad are playing for each other and giving 100%. I think Derek has assembled a great team from almost nothing. Just hope none of the loan players can be recalled in January?

And add to Jason, a fantasist soft drink seller, who had no soft drinks or money.

Think a number of the 1000 walk ins were freebies RR and were in the away stand !

Keith, I know that card for Love annoyed you, but it happened right in front of me and I saw it as time-wasting on Love's part: he didn't pick up the extra ball by accident but deliberately, or so it appeared to me. I assume the ref thought the same, hence the card. We might both have been wrong, and you right, but please let it go.

My comment was less about the rights or wrongs of Love's yellow card, but a reflection on how his was a booking, but deliberately wiping out a player who was breaking, having beaten the defender, didn't get one.

To be fair, on reflection, I think the ref wasn't too bad today, but missed a definite penalty in the first half.

Another great performance and result, starting to dream again.
Not too surprising that quite a few don't want L1 again cos they are enjoying watching the L2 football being dished up.
Enjoy yourself.... It is later than you think

Trying not to get carried away just yet. I just hope in January we can keep hold of the loanees, Positive to see Eli back aswell. I'm also hoping we can offer JJ and Joel new contracts ASAP

Heard that ELi's problem was a medical condition and if so we need to monitor his performances and not rush him back too quickly as if there was a repeat it could be considerably more serious.

However I'm sure Cardiff are happy to let him return safe in the knowledge that we have the expertise to handle any emergency should it arise.
