If what Parkinson said was so bad then Pressley needs to report it! Not necessarily repeat it in public, but he needs punishing.
Both central defences were poo and both teams had 2 good strikers, it made for a cracking game, think a point was fair enough. The ref was ok, sure you should have had a pen, but another ref may well have given you 2 reds. The handball! He knew Wells was lurking and that was a clear & deliberate arm-to-ball.
Thought Coventry were the better footballing side and were capable of playing the last few minutes out, strange you didn't. Think you are being harsh on Clarke, Hanson is bloody horrible to play against, he just grinds defenders down and they make mistakes.
Don't know why PP & SP were so wound up, but PP does seem to fall out with every single visiting manager. Turn out poor, maybe 700/800?
Whenever I see Clarke he's an absolute liability at the back, why jump in the air in the 94th minute with your hands in the bloody air, though why the fuck did Conor Thomas keep the ball in play in the 93rd minute I will never understand.
God do we need a centre half, surely this Urquart is better than Clarke.
Clarke did the same against Wimbledon,he plays relatively well for 955 of the match but is really prone to horrendous errors, he just simply switches off totally. best player on the park was Fleck, controlled the ball and a simple forward pass, did that all game and IMO outshone the rest
Worst hoof ball football I've seen for a long time from bradistan
Yes, it was very direct. Cracking post, you should be proud of yourself.

Had a little dabble. Both Wilson and Clarke 40/1 to score in first 10 mins. Good value to me.
Beagrie saying that Clarke was interfering with play on the first goal, how exactly peter???
what was said? missed it sorry
Pressley wouldn't say but stated that what was said is the worst, most unprofessional thing he has ever experienced in his short time of being a manager, but he would not repeat it (it was that bad). Says he doesn't want to get another manager in trouble but I say he should do if it was that bad.
He also referred to their long ball / hoof tactics as stoneage
Do you gain height by jumping with both arms up? A draw isn't a good result - not when a win was 60 seconds away
no need for sarcasm? You had one tactic.... Hoof it n hope. At least we scored 3 attacking goals
There was no need for the final comment.
It's not hoof and hope, it's a bog standard British 4-4-2, + big 'un and a little 'un, you've seen it all before and I posted on here how we'd play days ago. Be silly to do otherwise with Hanson & Wells. BTW 2 of your goals came direct from defensive howlers, just like our did.
I was shouting at the TV when he did it, all he had to do was run it out of play and hit it as hard and high as possible into the crowd.
at least your defenders got summit on it:slap:
I know it feel like 2 points lost for you, but despite playing the better football, I don't really think you deserved all three. You'll be a match for anybody in midfield and going forwrad but were often shambolic at the back, as we were. As I posted days ago, you can't really defend against Hanson, he's just too good in the air and if Wells reacts quick enough, we score. We are one dimensional and when Wells goes, we'll have to change.
Any team could just stick a beast up front and lump it up to him. Our football requires skill.
we know that, we know we can't defend and rely on goals for. but the defence has got better since the PNE game of 4-4. but you contradict yourself with we played the better "football" but didn't deserve a win. if the BCFC fans go home happy after hoofball, then fair play to ya :wave:
Isn't it what gets results that counts?
1st half was even, 2nd half we were far better. If it wasn't for Wells we would have won comfortably. I mean no disrespect Saltaire Bantam but he is too good for Bradford. Destined for bigger things. Will probably be saying the same about Wilson if he sustains this form for a year or 2.
I haven't contradicted myself. You did play the better "football" but it was hardly tik-a-tak and you didn't do enough to win.
Am I happy with 4-4-2? No. But we don't have the squad to play a possession game, plus, it suits Hanson & Wells as shown to you quite clearly today.

It's true that for some, results are everything.
Others prefer a little entertainment.
The good thing is that decent football and decent results are not necessarily mutually exclusive.
how can you say in a previous post that its not hoofball (quite clearly is) and in the post above suggest thats all you play????
cracking game to watch, we should have had wrapped up by 10 mins. but in the final minute i was shouting for elvjs to waste time and bring some subs on. we deserved the win but now feels like a loss.
oh well bring on tranmere
