@pennant83 There’s no identity so how will that be different next year. Slot says he knows what they need, we may need an unlimited amount of funds.

FSG how on earth do you see something totally different to what I see and 99.9% of the fans see? To think next season will be any better under this management. Do you have unlimited funds we dont know about?.

@HMSHTAFC @KevinNagleMLS The lads beyond your means, star in the making, and that’s claret and amber.

That Jensen Metcalfe looks a decent young talent to be fair, looks better in blue and white and we need some midfielders, maybe we can bring him to the nice side of West Yorkshire @KevinNagleMLS #htafc #bcafc

@Vfynn_ At the end of the day, the stats don’t lie, Liverpool have been awful all season and rode their luck in early season victories.

🚨🎙️Jamie Carragher on why Liverpool must sack Arne Slot after the 4-2 defeat to Aston Villa if they want to return to the top: “I’ve held my tongue for months because I love this club and I wanted to give Arne Slot the benefit of the doubt after what he did last season. But enough is enough. This 4-2 capitulation at Villa Park yesterday in our final away game of a season that’s been an absolute disaster, is the final straw. Let’s be crystal clear, if Liverpool are serious about getting back to where we belong, competing at the very top, challenging for titles, not scrambling for a Champions League spot on the last day then they have to sack Arne Slot now. Not in the summer. Not after another window of ‘trust the process.’ Act. Today. Look at the cold, hard facts of his tenure. He won the league in his first season off the back of Jurgen’s squad and that incredible momentum. Fair play. But this 25/26 season? It’s been a collapse like we’ve never seen. Slot has now overseen 20 defeats in all competitions, the most by any Liverpool manager in a single season in the club’s entire history. He broke Rafael Benítez’s unwanted record of 19. Twenty losses. That’s not a blip, that’s a catastrophe. In the Premier League alone, we’ve conceded a club-record 52 goals, the first time ever over 50 in a 38-game season. Set-pieces? We’ve been the worst team in Europe’s top five leagues on them all year. Leaking goals from dead balls like it’s amateur hour. And this after a huge summer spending spree – over £400 million on new attackers like Alexander Isak and Hugo Ekitike, supposedly to make us even stronger. Instead? We’ve gone backwards. More open, more end-to-end basketball, less control. The recruitment was all attack and no balance. Pre-season screamed it, the first game against Bournemouth screamed it, and it’s never been fixed. Analytically, the underlying numbers don’t lie. No improvement from day one to the final whistle. Zero. The drop-off from title winners to this fragile mess has been stark – worse points-per-game runs than some of the darkest periods under Hodgson or even early Rodgers in stretches. We’ve had five straight domestic defeats, nine losses in 12 at one point, historic lows not seen since the 1950s. Defensively? Organised chaos. Midfield overrun. No leadership when it matters. Players look confused, not coached into a system that suits them. Injuries? Every club has them. You can’t hide behind that after blowing the bank on marquee signings who haven’t delivered. This isn’t just about one bad result. This is a manager whose weakness traits have been exposed week after week: inability to fix set-piece defending, poor in-game adjustments, over-reliance on individual moments rather than a coherent structure, and a squad that looks less than the sum of its parts despite the spending. Liverpool fans deserve better than this. We’ve been spoilt, yeah, but that’s the standard. We don’t accept mediocrity. We don’t accept ‘give him another window’ when the evidence is screaming the opposite. FSG, the board, if you care about the badge, the fans, the history… sack Slot now. Bring in someone who can rebuild this properly before another season slips away.”

@Jamesbm__ We don’t play the best football but my understanding of the game is that it’s a results business, say no more.

how bradford finished in the playoffs is a crime, they are shite, kick and hope football #htafc

@stehoare Alonso is the best option out there, go and get him, don’t wait for Chelsea to appoint him.

I still don’t think Liverpool will sack Arne Slot but if they do, and if Xabi Alonso is at Chelsea, who is the best, realistic option to take over at Anfield?

@premierleague @OfficialFPL @AVFCOfficial Fully deserved, Liverpool have no spine, are predictable, the football is slow, Tottenham would create more than we do. Villa were just too strong, Watkins was fantastic all evening.

Sealing a Champions League finish in style @AVFCOfficial 👏

@BBCSport You knew it was already 3 points before a ball was kicked as Liverpool are so poor defensively and have no attacking threat bar Rio. Conceding 4 goals was kind, it should’ve been a larger score line. Knowing you are weaker, why don’t you make yourself hard to beat.

Aston Villa emphatically confirm their place in next season's Champions League ✅⚽✨

@TheWidthofaPost Great write up Jason. I always thought that this would be a game too far but we gave it a good go. Unfortunately, Bolton just had a bit too much quality for us over the two legs and deserve their trip to Wembley. But what a season we’ve had, huge credit to GA for what he’s done.

Heartbreak cannot overshadow a Bradford City season to remember #bcafc #bantams widthofapost.com/2026/05/15/hea…

@pideson @PTBenJones @PTAlanSwann I for one am glad that Stevenage never made the final, they’ve got to be the worst side to watch going.

@PTBenJones @PTAlanSwann The whole league will probably point to the refs that allowed them to get away with their shenanigans week in, week out.

The most one-sided game I've seen at Edgeley Park in at least three weeks I reckon. The whole league needs to look at itself in the mirror over the summer and ask how they let this Stevenage side get into the play offs #pufc

@bradford_retro Yes please 👍

Bradford version of the Germany jumper 😁 Will be on sale soon 🔜 If you want a reminder when this goes live leave a comment ⬇️ RT’s appreciated 🔄❤️ #BCAFC

@BantamsPride I’d be looking at three quality signings who’d be in your starting eleven. A proper forward, wide player and central midfielder.

Positions Bradford City need to recruit in this summer👇 GK CB CM ST Wing Back #BCAFC

@David_Ornstein @TheAthleticFC It’s the most sensible appointment going with who’s available and knowing how the club works. If he’s backed properly and positive strides are made next season then success could return.

🚨 Broad agreement in place for Michael Carrick to become permanent head coach of Manchester United. Work continues between all parties to finalise contracts for Englishman & backroom staff after 2+1yr deal offered to former #MUFC midfielder @TheAthleticFC nytimes.com/athletic/72767…

@Thecityvent @bcafctalhah Totally agree, the number of fans who stayed behind after the final whistle backs up your comments. I think most fans who understand how the game works realises the strides our club has made and that this season has been a huge success.

There has undoubtedly been a shift at Bradford City, A mindset has changed & our image to those outside of the club has changed, a level of respect has been achieved again. Players get it, the manager gets it, the fan base couldn't be prouder of their club at the moment. #bcafc

@Thecityvent @bcafctalhah Totally agree, get that first goal and then who knows but we’ve got to be on the front foot from the off.

Thursday has got to be absolutely bouncing from the off, no excuses. We've seen it add that extra % when we are on it. 12th man will be the difference in us getting anything from this second leg. No sitting on hands, loud & proud throughout. We are all with you lads. #bcafc

@Mickyboy74 The main thing is we’re still well in this tie and the performance wasn’t bad either. We missed two big chances where we should’ve done better and overall, neither keeper had much to do. Thursday could be a cracker.

Not the result we wanted but really in this tie now and with a full stadium .. Let’s make the noise on Thursday #bcafc🧡💛

@TheWidthofaPost This was a very good away performance if you take the goal out of it. Bolton were always going to have more possession, play the better football, it was all about staying in the tie, which we did. Both teams had chances, Bolton will be a threat at VP but so will we.

Alive and kicking – Bradford City take on some Bolton damage but keep play-off tie alive #bcafc #bantams widthofapost.com/2026/05/10/ali…

@JamieRaynor Spot on Jamie, thought we weathered the storm well once they got playing. Let’s not forget, we missed two big chances ourselves, Thursday is set up nicely.

Back home. Reflections on the #bcafc game, yet another tight affair where City weathered a lot of Bolton pressure and will feel optimistic about taking a 1-0 deficit to Valley Parade. Bolton’s attacking flair was there to see and a moment of Cozier-Duberry brilliance was worthy of settling the tie on the night. The chances created will give reason to be confident, but no doubt Bolton will pose another stern test in the second-leg. An enjoyable game all round, and a fantastic atmosphere. I’m sure it will be the same on Thursday evening.

@Thecityvent It’s a game we’re still in and we’re in tonight, could’ve been 2-2 on chances. Thought we did quite well, don’t understand all the negative comments on Facebook, all to play for on Thursday, we’re still in this!

Might sound mental this, but actually think that is a perfect result for us (barring if we'd gone & won 3/4 nil). Means we will have a proper go at them at home, hopefully the sort of performance we saw against Town, into them for the first minute. Still well in it 👍🏻. #bcafc

@pideson Playing Bolton is definitely going to be tough but I’d much rather face them than Stevenage who are horrible to play against.

Final league table for the League One playoff teams based on their records against each other… Stevenage the team to beat! #bcafc #bwfc #stockportcounty #stevenagefc

@Thecityvent @kisyrpk Days like yesterday make you realise how special our club is.

This isn't a premier league fixture from the weekend, it's the third tier of English football. Bradford v Bolton. 23.7k attendance. Two proper football clubs. What an occasion yesterday was, felt like a play-off in its own right. Loved every minute of it. #bcafc
