Good read might be worth keeping an eye on their 18 year old centre back Staunton if he’s being asked to play in our style

 

[Bennyand the Blades]

Good luck to him and Bradford....
(Where all Yorkshire, aren't we !!!!)..........

Imitation is the greatest form of flattery after all

 

[Westran]

Have we got any center backs we could send there on loan?

 

[itsinyerblood]

Imitation is meant to be the sincerest form of flattery.....isn't it?

Didn't even know he was Bradford manager again.

Again.

 

[Bladesman]

Again.

Is this his 4th spell as manager?

 

[Davalon]

Might be. I'm sure it's at least the third.

 

[Blade for Sale]

Might be. I'm sure it's at least the third.

He's royalty at VP. I suspect he could field one of his turds in the starting XI and the fans would back him.

 

[I'll tell me dad.]

Overlapping turds. Look out for him crouching on a bucket.

I went through a number of Championship results yesterday and looked at their line-ups. A fair few played with a back three, but I noticed the pigs played our previous system that employs a #10.

West, North and East can fuck off , come to think of it rest of South Yorkshire can do one to especially south Barnsley!

 

[Bennyand the Blades]

Ever wondered why London split Yorkshire up like that ?
Added together we have a bigger population than Scotland.......

A few clubs that have tried it gave up after a few matches. They won't give up a months worth of losing matches waiting for the system to gel, Wilder took that risk.

Many of the clubs that have tried to replicate our system also put square pegs in round holes. Some of them don't have all the players needed to play the system effectively

We didn’t have a months worth of losing matches though. We won our first game with it then went from strength to strength.

If we did, Wilder would’ve been out of a job.

Bryan?

 

[Bennyand the Blades]

Everybody tries it but only Mr Wilder can do it the Wilder way.....


Wild thing,
you make my hart sing
you make everything groovy
wild thing

Will be interesting to see how Bradford kick on then given a bit more time.

Do you know if we use this system throughout all of our teams, right down to the kids?

 

[Pedro Verde]

Doesnt McCall realise we have tweaked our system for next season, we have signed 2 extra wing backs
We are playing with wing backs, overlapping wingbacks and overlapping centre halves
Up to Egan and Norwood to do the defending

 

[Blade82]

Basic football tut tut

 

[Finn Keane o' Balmaqueen]

Really working well for Bradford City tonight.

Only 0-4 down at home to Lincoln City, not even half time.

If we did, Wilder would’ve been out of a job.

First four games in L1 with Wilder- Bolton, Rochdale, Southend, Millwall. Got one point v Rochdale

And we didn’t play 3-5-2 in any of them

But we did have a month's worth of losing matches, and Wilder wasnt out of a job

Couple of more losses and he would’ve been

He gave them £100 for beer after the match so all will be ok in the next game.
