Hoy turns to Moy quite easily I guess

Add in Cartwright, hopefully he will play again this season.

Cartwright would be the 18th debut if he does feature this season, I know we terminated his contract but in theory Treigh Stewart would have brought the total to 19 players debuting for us this year. Nearly a full match day squad of players.

The only other season I can recall with quite as much comings and goings was 2012 when I believe we reached squad number 40, and off the top of my head we gave about 16+ debuts that year

Such a weird season, Bradford seem to be doing similar in the championship too. It's difficult to support a team when you've no idea who the hell will be turning out for them week to week!

But Bradford are seeing some success and fourth in the table and i expect then to finish third.
We are second bottom

The marketing department went big on the Pele 10 Brazil shirts. On sale if anyone wants to grab themselves a bargain.

Bit of a gulf in quality though. Most Bradford fans online seem to think Okunbor is a good player

Absolutely agree but Okunbor probably is a good player at this level

Well tye end of the transfer window was a bit of damp squib. What happened to Cust coming early?

I thought we did OK, not sure who else we could have brought in.

I'm happy to leave any of next years new signings to next year, give them a fresh start. If we signed Cust and he didn't perform (which is highly likely with our current pack) fans would start on him already.
