    I was slaughted on ere close season for suggesting he would be good addition... Certainly doing a job for Bradford. Experienced honest pro playing with pride, passion and leading by example!

    Instead we were excited and optomistic about retaining Cranie and Jennings, and signing Lita, Hemmings, Bailey and Treacy... And few were dissapointed to see existing players move on in recent years who have gone on to better things e.g. Matty Done

    I also remember large number of fans slated former loanees Chris Wood and Jay Rodriguez... And soon turned on Devante Cole and Ryan Tunnicliffe...

    Point being majority of us are very short sighted and couldn't spot a player if our lives depended on it... I wonder if he signed how influential Tom Pope could have been!

    Not sure why it didnt work out for Danny in second spell, but its a results and entertainment business and we were getting neither!

    Lets get behind the board, the team and new manager! And trust in their judgement and hope results follow

    3 league goals a steady player though he's done well for them in the cup games.

    Some people were saying Pope was poor against us, what does he offer v Waring etc etc, this after his first game for 3 months!!
    Jonathan Parkin could have done a job for us this season, albeit for 40 minutes at time granted. fact of the matter its all about opinions but undoubtedly ther are palyers who could do a very good job for us, given the right coach/tactics.

    The best defence in the country couldn't cope with them in last round. Stead was quality in that game, bullied them.

    Come on mate I remember you suggesting Marcus Harber would be a good addition too.

    Matty Done's moved on to bigger and better things? Really?

    You miss my point... We are to quick to dismiss players... But steads experience would have served us well...

    As for Haber, he would not be first choice but he is hardworking player, good ariel and has scored more goals than both Hemmings and Lita this season...

    But if Lita or Hemmings were at Crewe this season, probably starting most games would they have more than Haber right now? Id say so
