There are some spectacular numpties who comment on Connor Murphy's stories (and I make no apologies if you also write on here).



The guy is positively churning out stories day after day and whilst some of them are trivial this is exactly what you expect to see in a regional paper. Look in any Cas or Wakey paper or in the YEP and you'll get a nice little story about a visit to a children's ward or something.



Personally I like to hear what's going on about the place even if its just to say they are about to start training with ball in hand and which players wives get on. Just silly stuff but it makes you feel part of the club. It doesn't have to be the biggest scoop of the century!



So the the people who post "yaaaaawn" really pi55 me off and must make Murphy (who is streets ahead of the muppet Craven) wonder why he bothers.

The T & A forum is like a magnet for halfwits. I stopped reading it (the comments that is, not the articles) ages ago because it just wasn't worthwhile. I agree, it's easy to feel sorry for Connor trying his best to keep interest up in the news-starved off season, only for idiots like those to ridicule it. At the end of the day, if there's no news, what else is he supposed to do?

read the stories, ignore the comments. they're usually overflowing with stupidity anyway

Agree with all above, I tend to read the stories which are better written than the Craven jobbies and breifly glance at the comments, I've never bothered to register to reply to any tho'

coiuld be worse, could still be Craven writing it!

Conner is pumping positive stories into the T&A every day about the Bulls, and seems to be seeking the stories rather than his past pedant awaiting of copy coming across his desk. /> If this is his enthusiastic stlye in the off season, then I hope he keeps it up and look forward to incisive reporting during the season itself. /> No doubt he will already identified the vituperous numpties on the T&A response site, and he like all most others will cease to even read it.

i think they should diasble comments for all articles. there's not many that post useful things anyway.

Quote ="phillgee"i think they should diasble comments for all articles. there's not many that post useful things anyway.'" /> Why? The comments thing obviously attracts hits which, given that the T&A are probably funded from advertising, translates into revenue (no matter how little). Of course, if the comments required significant moderation time then they'd probably pull it.

I like reading comments on anything the council tries to do ever. It's hard to tell whether an incompetent council or a population of morons has the greater part of the blame for Bradford's ills.

Some belters on the article about Peter Hoods comments on OSV made at the AGM. I don't know what's worse the shortsited comments from City fans claiming the council are conspiring against them despite the fact the original plans had nothing to do with them and their ground is owned by an outside party on a restrictive agreement in which they entered into or the complete lack of any ambition from the Bulls fans on there.
