Interesting to see what the loss of wells will do. No doubting he was one of if not the best player there, but rumours aren't he's wanted to leave for a while so him going could lift morale.

2-2 I think. But a point isn't the end of the world away from home.

Bradford have failed to win 17 out of 24 matches this season. 

 

They haven't won in their last 6, losing 3 of them.

 

Despite being 12th they've only scored 2 more goals than us all season, and Wells, who's scored almost half their goals, won't be playing.

 

We're going for 3 wins in a row and appear to have a confident, fairly settled team.

 

Just for once I'm feeling slightly confident today.

On the M1 now. Not going to make "tea with Jon and Steve".

Nice to run into Millwall at the services. Lovely fellas.

 

Im sure they will both be pleased they dont have to listen to you banging on about how shit Baldock is then :)

You know what you've done, don't you Noggers?

Set myself up for a slight fall?

 

Usually I'm not confident in City's prospects at all and we duly lose, so this mild optimism isn't necessarily a bad thing.

 

Don't forget this is 2 hours+ before KO 'slight confidence', what little there is may well have evaporated by 3 o'clock!

 

If we play well, no one goes off injured, or gets sent off, and the ref doesn't award them a dodgy pen., etc and Baldock whacks home a few his chances I've got a feeling it could be a good day.  :city:

Going back a bit.......1988 I think.........League Cup Q/F  took 2,500 of which i was one........won 1-0  goalscorer could have been Alan Walsh, then went back to my overnight guesthouse for two or a few ....and heard we had Notts Forest in the semis next morning.........good times

I think we scored in the first ten minutes of the game, the lads in the second car of our group couldn't find a parking scace and turned up 15 mins late..... bugger! ;-)

First couple of minutes as I recall. One long night after that as they kept banging it up to that tall fella, Ormondryd I think.

Brilliant night and amazing atmosphere, Walshy scored in the second minute and we clung on. Jordan was going mental ha ha .

Seems strangr were discussing a deal with forest to extend gillets loan if when everyone is fit he is only on the bench. Thought we were going to sign players that are better than we already have, hence Barnett coming in and Taylor leaving.

Would have started gillet today.

Marv had his best game of the season last Saturday, would have been harsh to leave him out imo. Perhaps Bradford are a big tall team and Marv is in there to help counter this.

Maybe at home. I'm sure Elliot is playing due to Bradford aerial threat. A squad should provide different options.

Just got off the blower to someone there. Apparently Warnock enquired about the City job but we'd already approached SC.

Also Bristol Rugby are moving over for next season but DESsO pitch not in for 2 years. So next season could be interesting..

I was looking at the pitch last night, and it was defo not looking as good as it has in past seasons at this stage.... very sandy for sure.

 

I appreciate the weather but if it were the same next season with the egg chasers playing we may have had an issue !

Maybe its why we brought SC in to play hoof ball!!

It was the first two minutes. Had only just got to our place in the tinpot terrace stand when we were surged down about thirty feet! Spent the rest of the game with a bloke behind us blowing an airhorn every two minutes... ears were ringing for days afterwards! Longest 88 minutes ever. Good times indeed! :yes:
