It appears that McCall has said in an interview after the game that he will walk if we dont make the play offs.

As you say it would be a sad way for him to leave, but I think it would be the right decision.

I was pretty confident that we would get promoted up until recently, unfortunately I have heard a lot of stories about the behaviour of some of our players recently which doesn't bode well when you are a team looking to achieve something.

I do think McCall was wrong to come out and say what he did last night though, because I can now see plenty of the players just tossing it off for the rest of the season - I know why he said it in the heat of the moment, but it might end up working against him, I think he struggles sometimes to come to terms with the fact that a lot of the players don't care anything like as much as he does.

Pretty sure something was said by one of the chairmen about Bradford needing to get promotion otherwise we could be back in money problems.

Also Conlon has been shipped off to Grimsby after his bust up with Clarke. He wasn't the best player but always seemed to give his all.

...and signed Paul Mullin in his place. We could do a lot worse to be honest. Good riddance to Conlon IMO. He's been given a big chance by this club and he's doing his best to throw it away.

Makes a bit of a mockery of the season ticket campaign though

Good riddance to Conlon, only put any effort in when his contract was up for renewal, and his recent behaviour has, by all accounts, been appalling.

The oaf has showed a complete lack of respect for the club (and in particular the manager) who backed him 100% after he was booed earlier in the season.

He'll now fade into the obscurity his talent and attitude warrants.

Another shambolic display.

The understanding between Lee and Clarke at centre half has totally disappeared for some reason.

Given Clarke's 'incident' last week I think it might be time to bring Bower back. Either that or put Rehman in there.

Fully agree, Rehman is clearly playing out of position at full back, and it isn't as if we've been strong enough in defence to justify keeping Lee and Clarke together.

The rumour mill came up with two different stories regarding Clarke yesterday, one is that he has been spared to the same fate as Conlon as he grovelled in front of the squad, the other is that City are waiting for Pawel Abbott to get fit at Darlington then we'll swap them for the rest of the season, and recall Bower.

I'd be more than happy with the latter but can't see it somehow.
