@supportersboard. Club first 🐓. Groundhopping a close second. Irrational annoyance at the confusion that we are "Bradford City", not "Bradford"...

CITY 4 - 0 York City
EFL Trophy
Att: 2,524

The competition might be much-maligned but a bit of a footballing guilty pleasure that's served #bcafc well. Progress already confirmed from the group, but some of City's second string doing their own chances of progression no harm!

@officialbantams Did we really expect anything else - well actually the way the schedulers don't give a damn about travel times I had a feeling it might have been Monday!

CITY 7 - 0 Marine AFC
F.A Cup First Round
Att 7,149 (1,255 away)

@MarineAFC and their supporters very welcome visitors to Valley Parade. They turned up but thankfully so did the Bantams. Played in the proper spirit. Mutual respect but, on the pitch, no mercy shown. #bcafc

Campion 4 - 2 Handsworth
NCEL Premier Division
Att 115

A high tempo start set the tone for an entertaining night at Scotchman Road. The visitors a threat on the break against a high line, as the Red & Blacks pushed forward - a proper contest. #groundhopping #CampionBantams

CITY 0 - 3 Huddersfield Town
League One
Att 23,776

A belated catch up on the weekend's football - to keep the record up to date. Moving swiftly on...

[Adam Baker @AddyJBak]

@Macker08lad @BBCWYS @Hudsonweather Agreed. It was a really good watch first half.

[Adam Baker @AddyJBak]

@officialbantams Forged my earliest City memories. Sad to hear.

Campion 2 - 1 Tadcaster Albion
NCEL Premier Division
Att 155

The weekend got off to a better start on Friday night under the lights at Scotchman Road.

A strong first half making up for the cup defeat in the same fixture and held on second half. #CampionBantams #groundhopping

[Adam Baker @AddyJBak]

@Harrybcafc__ Game was gone within 3 mins of him being on the pitch to be fair.

[Adam Baker @AddyJBak]

@JamesStozza @markswires My opinion on Rupp has shifted a lot over the last couple of years. The short answer is, yes. In context the budgeted loss funded by Rupp is now doubled (several millions) due to SCMP rules just to sustain the same mid table wage bill #bcafc.

[Adam Baker @AddyJBak]

@Riccles05 But yet he's criticised for changing it to go two up top, which GA had rarely done previously. Damned either way.

[Adam Baker @AddyJBak]

@JohnHutchinson Eh?

[Adam Baker @AddyJBak]

@markswires Unfortunately it needs tens of millions now.

[Adam Baker @AddyJBak]

@BBCWYS Can't disagree with any of that. Glad he was watching the same game as me.

[Adam Baker @AddyJBak]

@bencunliffe14 One thing I really didn't expect to read after the game was criticism of the manager. It makes no sense. We make a really positive sub that unfortunately has no chance to take effect because of a completely unrelated error that doesnt happen 99 times out of 100 #bcafc

[Adam Baker @AddyJBak]

@ChrisHilton83 Don't know to be fair they never had chance to take effect.

[Adam Baker @AddyJBak]

@BenDunne2 Absolutely. Some heads need a wobble!

[Adam Baker @AddyJBak]

@officialbantams I can only see this as a positive idea, always lots of seats free around us in the main stand even for the bigger games (but are "sold out" to ST's).
