Re Tickets - are they downloadable or is it a physical ticket? I normally buy one in advance & have it posted but wasn’t sure whether my daughter was going to be able to come so I’d planned to pay on the day. See we have sold 780 & says none will be available on day if we sell out.

Usually a physical ticket for away games. Ring the ticket office and they will sell you one and have it at Bradford for you to collect on the day.

I honestly don’t think Kenny Hibbitt gets enough credit for the job he did at Walsall. We were in a right mess, begging and borrowing players. We finished down the bottom end of the table but we never flirted with relegation.
Fair enough it took Chris Nicholl to come in and get his team promoted, but that shouldn’t take away anything what Hibbitt did. Out of all the managers since I started going (Buckley player manager then) I think Hibbitt gets the least mentions of all of them.

I agree with you about Hibbitt. He might not have been the man to take us up, but he kept us up and I don’t think that was a bad achievement in his first two seasons.

I took her from Hull to Crewe in the play-offs but she’s never admitted her responsibility for that 5-1 defeat!

And it was his team that Nicholl took up. I’m not sure Hibbitt would have achieved it, but he signed the players. Did Nicholl sign anyone that first season?
I think everybody was already at the club when he took over. I can’t remember us even signing anyone on loan, which might boggle the minds of some younger fans.
My brother will be joining me on Saturday for his first away game for donkey’s years. So you can blame me too if it goes tits up!

Graham Alexander in his press conference spoke about wanting to keep clean sheets so I expect a tight game, but no reason why we can’t win. 1-2 to Walsall.
Just David Mehew I think. Or was that the season after?
I think this weekend will be a step too far. We’re better than them. There’s no question about that. I just think we’re due a loss.
I’d take a draw to keep the points ticking.

I think a 1-1 draw this time.
Due to another storm coming our way …. Saddlers 1 nil!
Think this might be P-P unless the storm is just missing Bradford. Sure the weather warning had it sweeping through Huddersfield.
With Cook out who do they have upfront now?
Solid 1-1 I think if it goes ahead.
High winds foecast for tomorrow, but sunny and a gentle breeze on Saturday so the only danger of it it being postponed is if there’s any bad damage to the ground that they can’t make safe for fans.

Ash Taylor too? I can appreciate why we would all like to forget that happened, as would the Bradford fans I’d imagine
I have every faith this team are capable of winning this but it will be a very tough game so would be more than happy to take a draw. If this is the game to end our run I have no doubt the lads would bounce right back next game in which case it wouldn’t hurt us too much.
