To be fair, League Two is probably his level now. We sold him to Charlton 2 years ago for £100k - and it was great business. We welcomed him back in Jan because he loves the club and wanted to be back in the area. He might fair OK next season, wherever he is, but I doubt he’ll be a starter in what will be a serious promotion push for us.

 

What happened to your promotion push this season? Ive missed you talking rubbish for a few seasons on here to be honest and telling us how big of a club you are.

What makes you think after such a mediocre season in League 1 that Bradford will storm right back? Surely you only have to look at Sunderland to know getting back up after a relegation isn't easy no matter how big a support you command

You should be doing a lot better with crowds averaging over 16,000.Do you have a recruitment problem like us?

I suppose it would be difficult for anyone who isn’t connected to Bradford City to truly understand what has happened since Edin Rahic (joint-owner who left on Nov) took full control of absolutely everything at the club. I could bore you will all the details, but I really can’t be bothered. We’ve gone from consistently being in the top 5 of League One for 3 season’s, being a decent finish away from the Championship to finishing bottom of L1.

 

In a nutshell, we have a very good squad on paper for League One, never mind L2. We’re not short of a quid or two and the fans are now right behind the club following the departure on said joint-owner. I’m quietly confident we’ll do OK next season - merely an opinion/prediction.

It was more about a pantomime villain who wanted to pull the strings and dislodge everything we have worked hard for.

 

In all fairness, with our cheap tickets and large attendances, we haven’t done too bad.

 

Promotion and League Cup final in the same season. L1 play-offs twice and reaching the final again, losing to Millwall. FA Cup quarter-final and beating the likes of Wigan, Arsenal, Villa over two legs, Chelsea at the bridge and Sunderland to name a few. This is what makes this season’s relegation hard to take. All of the hard work the previous owners have put in the stabilise the club ready for Championship football, and we’ve gone backwards.

 

But anyway, what about Vale’s chances next season? Any early predictions?

This Rahic bloke - did he have a cousin called Norman?

That's what we thought when we went down as well, and we weren't the only relegated side from L1 to think it. The reality tends to bite you on the bum.

After being in relegation battles for the last three seasons I'll be quite happy to finish in mid table to be honest.I see that you've released Paul Caddis,how did he do for you last season?

Good luck to the Bantams,I look forward to visiting Valley Parade once again.
