OK so we have BradfordBantam in the hot seat for this week, fire away folks.

Well Chris why Bradford, it may be your home town and all that, but what will the bigger Yorkshire clubs around, how comes you have stuck with the Bantams?.

I've been to Bradford to watch City v CUFC. Have you ever been to Cambridge United ?

How do you rate the chances of City getting promoted to L1 ?

Which players do you think are particularly good/bad in the City 1st team ?

My guess is that they are a big club in a big city, so they'll always get good gates. No other big clubs in Bradford either, so no competition.

Would be nice if Dag+Red or United could get 10k+ !!

You are right it is my home town team. That is why and why it always will be. Seen em all my life.
Not worried about the bigger teams in Yorkshire, if they aren't playing us then I like to see em do well mind.

No unfortunatelt I haven't. It is a ground maybe I need to goto but haven't yet.

Not on the current strength of us. So far we have been bad this season, we will be lucky to get in the top half if we play like we have been doing. My best guess is we will finish mid table maybe just top half.

I wont say bad as currently they are all playing poor. As for good ones Ramsden and Flynn who are currnetly out injured are good and we could do with them back. Lee Hendrie who has just joined us looks too good for us and the rest of the team aren't up with him unfortunately.

We have always had a good core that sticks with it. If we were in the championship it wouldn't be much more.
I personally think the season ticket reduction for buying early last season and this helps.

Yes we are a big city but for the size of the city (seventh in the UK) it is relatively poor. As I said to Jimmie no matter what league we are in it would still be not much more. Maybe the prem may get us 20,000 but for a city this size we should have loads of support and able to fill a bigger ground.

Not much chance of City playing CUFC in the near future !

You're a much bigger club and we aint gonna get promoted back to the league anytime soon.  thumbs down

But if you do end-up with an away game at Cambridge United then come down. Cambridge is a nice part of the world (but expensive) and the visitors (South Stand) end is very good. All-seater and new. We've got no gripes with anyone from The North so there should be no trouble .... and our Supporters Club is very good if you can afford the £1.50 to get in !  thumbs up drink

Anyhoo, back to City, do you think that the club expenses (overheads, player wages, etc....) are sustainable in L2 for now ? Fortunately, you have very good gates but will BCFC maintain financial survival in the middle-ish of L2 ?

Who do you rate for the L2 title this season?
"It's about the blokes, our men and women of the Armed Forces. It's about Derek, a rugby player who has lost both his legs, it's about Carl whose jaw is wired up so he has been drinking through a straw. About Richard who was handed a mobile phone as he lay on the stretcher so he could phone home"

I'm not that young anymore that i do the city centre pubs. But as far as I'm aware it's still there.

Good question...I suppose Elland Road because the atmosphere when ever we do play them, which isn't that often

Before the season started I fancied Northampton but having seen em I wasn't impressed.

On the few games we have played the best team I've seen is Shrewsbury so them at the moment.
