The thing is, they underestim8d them. Where as we know all about them thanks to TBM's in depth knowledge of League One.

Bradford could have 2 and possibly 3 trips to Wembley this season.

I hope they don't go up so we can play them next season.

Southampton.. They could stage the final at the Camrose

I'd first like to see Reading in the draw for the semi-final.
I'd say Bradford are firm favourites right now.

Surprised that the bookmakers odds have us level pegging

us@2.62
Brad@2.62
Draw@3.30 (iirc)

Guessing it's down to home advantage. Difficult to assess the quality of leagues relative to another. Bradford are actually a very average league one side, there are 10 teams within 5 points of them

Was speaking to a Man U fan last night who think that Bradford might "slip up" against Reading.

We're slight favs to qualify. That's just match betting.

I went to Swindon vs Bradford last night with a Bantams supporting colleague.

Swindon tore Bradford a new one in the first half. Bradford allowed Swindon all the time in the world to impose their passing football on them and two perfectly picked through-balls brought about the two Swindon goals and they should have had a third through a similar route. Second half Bradford imposed themselves a bit more, got a scruffy goal back and maybe could have nicked a draw. They were mising two key players in Morais and Hanson but on the evidence of what I saw they are nothing better than a moderate side, as expected. That said with a high tempo and the direct game they play I expect them to cause Reading all sorts of problems. If I was Parkinson, I'd start with their Blackpool loanee Zoko against us as he could give our full backs a real headache with his pace and power if he plays down channels as he did when he came on last night.

Swindon, FWIW, were excellent and would be a top half Championship side on that showing (I've also seen them on telly once).

Don't get how Blackpool are able to loan out players to League 1 considering the position they're in. If he's good enough for Bradford, surely he's good enough for them?

Haven't you read the whole thread? TBM has got resounding evidence that we're going through without any trouble. We don't need "fans" like you at our club. Always negative.
