  • Bradford are on a real upward curve Rob, and that description of season professionals, playing against tidy (over coached, imo) kids, who love going sideward and backwards, just takes me back to that old argument of what is so good about under 21’s football?Once you become a professional footballer, the first thing you should be made to realise is that there is no going back, because it’s now a man’s game, and sometimes I no longer feel that this is the case....

  • Interesting opinion on N’Diaye, Michael. I like him, I think he’s our most dangerous player, and I think he must get really frustrated playing in our current set-up, because when Dewsbury Hall, is in the team, then nearly everything seems to go left? We obviously also go left because of Grealish, and this is something Garner also does because he seems to have a very good understanding with Jack Grealish, Unless Alkaraz, is on the pitch, then Everton, tend to overlook the right and prefer to attack down the left, which makes me think that N’Diaye, must sometimes be thinking to himself, that he would like to get a part of the game, playing in his strongest position? ...

  • I watched most of the first half and up until the lad got injured. At 4-0 up their Number 2 didn't need to make that challenge from behind which has probably broken the lad's ankle or leg.It's like watching a men's team against a talented U16 team.At this level the lads playing lower league look like seasoned professionals who know the game.Our U21s look like a tidy bunch of players who love going sideways and backwards with no real threat going forward.Bradford are no mugs at this level....

  • What an appalling performance. Really can't see the need for this team if this is a true reflection of the players' talent. ...

  • Michael, I’m a fan of Ndiaye, but I wouldn’t argue with your observations on his play this season. Equally, the same comments could be made of Jack Grealish. Alcaraz and Dewsbury Hall have neat footwork and an eye for a pass, but their involvement in games is spasmodic. The problem, I fear, is that they all play too far away from one another. These players show in patches how well they can combine. Unfortunately, there is a number 9 size hole in the middle of the forward line, into which the ball too frequently disappears....
