Tonights Match (Bradford)

[Brian C]

Assuming tonights match is on, and we still have a team!
Stoke and Bury drew 1:1

So, A Morecambe win will see us and Bradford both going through.

Begging to Bradford?.....pathetic.

We might be begging to their fans with buckets the way things are going.

Why would the deciding games in a competition not be played simultaneously?? Crazy, but in this case in our favour, if the playing staff bother to turn up of course

I've never agreed either with Cup draws being made just before games start (Southport v Fleetwood on Monday just gone for example - played just after the Second Round Draw was made)

Well in this case it was us that asked for it to be moved to Wednesday, can't see that Bury can be too happy about it.

or ...
A draw and then we win on penalties would see us through.

Might be a good chance to give Ben Hedley & Steven Yawson their debuts since we might be playing the youth team soon enough....

OK. So some players could well refuse to play tonight.
But, we have to field at least 5 players who featured in our last match!

One of whom has since (allegedly) left the building.

I hope as many people as possible attend tonight's match, if nothing else as a show of support for the players and staff who still have not been paid.

Agree entirely.

[halftimeresults]

I can't go tonight due to work but I'm going to put my money in the trust fund when it's up and running

Just read on the Bradford City official site that "City fans have the choice of standing or seating tickets at The Globe Arena".

Which means the away end will be open of course (hoorah) and hopefully they'll bring a fair few to put in some £££
