Correct, and I'll stick my hand up and say I was one of them.
I've pointed out elsewhere what I think about the Max situation.but his day will come, if not here, elsewhere.
Meanwhile I'm not gutted that Broughy is playing - a fit Brough is still a joy to watch, and I'm looking forward fo seeing how Big Dave fares, so no doom and gloom from me!

So let me get this right, you want the club to tell the supporters why certain players aren’t in the 21. Why just Max, why not say Bachelor or any other player who is not in the squad, the one line sentence would fill a whole page.
Out of interest, a few months ago some were clamouring for Hampshire to be in the backs so now you have seen Jowitt play there, who is now in your opinion should play in the backs if not Brough ?

The point is that Max was playing and then wasn't. That is worth a comment.
Even more so when MC chastised someone for not knowing it.

Jordy played last week and isn’t in the 21.

Connor Bailey was in the 21 and isn’t this week.

No clamour for news about them

The bottom line is that some people think our head coach doesn’t like Max. That’s despite him signing Max on a 3 year deal. He must be mental signing someone he doesn’t like.

Re: Squad for Bradford : Thu Mar 12, 2020 4:30 pm  

Fair comment DC, and with no disrespect to Jordy or Connor, but Max has been THE key player in THE key role since Brough and Rocky got injured and with Chessie saying Brough would have to fight for his place back in the team because Max has been playing so well, then surely you can understand people's frustration when IT APPEARS as though Max has been dropped because Broughy is back. As has been stated above, when other players have been injured in the past, all it took was a one-liner on the press release to say that "X" picked up a knock last week/in training, so isn't in the squad, especially with the squad now being announced 48 hours before kick-off ???

But that doesn’t fit with the agenda does it?[/quote

Or alternatively tell the fans whats happening a little earlier, thus avoiding the agenda.

Relax. Most know that isn't true.
But there are people who think the world is flat too.
You won't convince them no matter how many times you explain.

You can understand why Mr Chester now keeps clear of the forum with some of the comment posted .But maybe a list of players out for the follow match through injury early in week ,could stop a lot of the negative comments been posted .D C as said ,Jowitt is injured that's good enough for me

quite why the owner/chairman whatever he is feels the need to come on this forum making quite clearly sarcastic comments towards supporters that are actually committed to the club is beyond me. This is a fans forum he’s plenty of other mediums he can access to get his views across unlike us

Re: Squad for Bradford : Thu Mar 12, 2020 9:04 pm  

I think we should just end it there and chill.

What a great idea! Why give your next opponents such a big advantage by telling them which players there not facing
