Some of the 'Barmy Army' were in attendance at the back of the room. Mark Dunning made a point that these supporters need to meet with the club to discuss this issue so that the fans know what they can and can't say. Anybody with half a brain knows that anything offensive is not tolerated and should be rightfully sanctioned.

I'm all for creating a loud atmosphere but anything homophobic or racist (which I'm led to believe was the issue) needs to be removed from the sport.

Mad when you think, Josh Johnson, Scurr, Walker, Jowitt and if we end up with him Matongo not in that squad and still looks strong fbarring obvious frailties in outside backs that’s a lot of strength in depth… personally for me Holmes has to be fullback

What's the matter with Josh Johnstone? Not heard anything about him being injured.

Think about whose team he’s in might not be fit

Is it free to park at York in the entertainment complex next door?

In response to RagingBull's clear agenda against the social media team (it won't let me quote reply)...

I know the guy who runs the social media having met him in the Top House after games and also at Fans Forums etc. I messaged him yesterday and he said club's dont have to submit squads until midday Monday as per RFL rules.

I'm being biased cause i've met the bloke, but rather than winge on a forum why don't you contact the club and offer constructive feedback? I gave him some feedback after the first fans forum and he seemed to take it on board, everyone makes mistakes don't they

Quote ="dddooommm"Is it free to park at York in the entertainment complex next door?'" Apparently stadium parking is free on match days in 2023 on a first come first served basis. Looks a lot of it on the map. That's where I'm aiming to go anyway. https://york-rugby.talent-sport.co.uk/P ... bType=YCKP

I rang them on Friday and they said you get 4 hours free parking after 6.00 in the park and ride car park.

I mean... How's he disallowed that

Ref's having a dreadful first half.
Nice to see a well worked try from us, though...Lawrence having a good game, again.... COYB...

Wow...our defence is being split apart, we can't handle the direct middle running from York. Still early days though.
MD needs to give 'em the hairdryer as they need to get their act together at the back.

Completely imploded end of that half. We got too comfortable. Why did we go away from what was working so well. Need to cut out trying silly kicks early in tackle count

Big team talk needed from Dunning.

So, now we know....we've got PLENTY to do to be competitive with the potential top 6. Silly errors, poor discipline, garbage defending, and made York look much better than they actualy were.

This performance is up there with the Newcastle on last year. York lost their best player inside the first minute.
Same old. As soon as things go against us we make stuff up, kick and hopes on first tackle. Awful.

This is where Dunnings inexperience shows when it's not going to plan he can't fix it on the fly.

The


A club's 21 man match day squad has to be lodged with the RFL by noon 2 days prior to the game, so for tonight's game that would have been on Saturday

Registered with the RFL and published to the public are two entirely different scenarios we don't know if they did or didn't register it with the RFL.

Whenever I take my daughters we lose and lose with gusto. They have never seen bradford win. They assume normal involves their dad looking crestfallen.

I'll warn you all if I take them again so you can give it a swerve.

Well that was dreadful.

3 dropped balls and we give away 3 tries on the back of them. York played almost the entire game with 1 recognised halfback after Marsh went off injured and they still made us look poor. A large amount of their attacking play was an inside ball to a forward running at an angle and we never seemed to get to grips with it. They kicked us to death with those penalty conversions and we never built any pressure in the second half. Their forward pack won them that game.

Holmes was horrendous at the back and dropped a number of high balls. I dread to think what our completion rate was for that game?! Patton needs to turn it on big time next week against Widnes or he needs to sit in the stands. He offered very little and gave away a penalty which broke the game for me. Give Lawford a pop in the halves if he doesn’t improve.

John Kear will be rubbing his hands after watching that dross. Another loss against Widnes and any pre-season excitement and positivity will be obliterated.

Well its early days, but from what I saw today..not too much has changed. The game on Sunday is huge for Dunning, can he coach a response from this squad? I am looking at the fixtures and I can quite easily see six or seven losses on the trot based on that performance.

Widnes (h)
Toulouse (h)
Fev (a)
Sheffield (h)
Cougars (a)
Halifax (a)
Batley (h)

Patton needs to sort his attitude or sit in the stands, what a signing JK left us lumbered with there.

Didn't seem to have a discernable game plan tonight but we gave away so much possession and position away so hard for the team to apply any pressure or create anything.

The handling errors were killers and were all punished. We invited pressure on ourselves and didn't apply any of out own. All that defence ended up making us fatigued and York were fresh as daisies and were able to win up the middle.

Thought our kicking game was crap when we managed to make it to the end of a set which was all too rare.

On the bright side I thought Roby looked alright and Thompson was OK. Everyone else had a game to forget. Blackmore in particular had a rotten game. Baldwinson's defence was lacking and Holmes had a night to forget. It also looked like Arundal got a leg injury so no idea who the back up centre will be for Sunday if he's not fit.

Think Patton is skating on thin ice. He offered zero creativity tonight with ball in hand and the less said about that drop out the better.

I thought we started out OK. We moved the ball well and created some good chances.

I think we looked comfortable as York weren't posing much threat. Then Holmes tried a silly kick when we had a 3 on two and from there it snowballed. Kev Brown doesn't see us every week but even he commented when things go against us, we completely implode and the game runs away from us.

Wasn't just the errors. I lost count the amount of times a player kicked on his own on the second/third tackle, trying miracle plays. We wern't prepared to roll out sleeves up and get in the grind when it got tough for us. If we'd have had a 10 minute period in that second half of completing our sets and making York come out from their own line, I think we'd have come out on top. But we just lack mental strength and discipline.

At least the brass band were entertaining. There wasn't much else to smile about.
