Such was my enthusiasm in talking about the Plymouth game I forgot to actually post the league table.
In our league;
- Will Captain Utd hold on to 1st place?
- Who will claim that 4th Champions League place?
- Is this our penultimate game or are there 5 left?
1) Captain Utd - 108
2) Foxy Freddy - 101
3) JFWqwerty6 - 98
4) Marco - 89
5) Stuart44 - 89
6) Don Touched My Boots - 88
7) Otep - 85
8) Emnez - 84
9) Old Brookender - 81
10) Steve1210 - 79
11) Derby Yellow - 77
12) Burton Boy - 74
13) Terraceman - 72
14) Ady1963 - 62
15) Frank Ashton - 47
16) BAFC 123 - 41
Back to the real football.
Interestingly I tried to buy a ticket for the game through our club. 'We haven't got any, contact Bradford' was the response. It's a big ground and whatever arrives at the turnstyle will be accommodated I expect. However, I have been there with the Brewers when I was 1 of about 100. I would hope that we would take a 1,000 for this.
No confidence with regards the game at all. We are extremely poor away and Bradford have much to play for. It feels to me that we are creating less than we have at any stage in the season.
I will be delighted with a draw but I expect a comprehensive defeat.
Bradford 3 Brewers 0

I fear a humiliating 4-1 defeat unfortunately , we will be like lambs to the slaughter in front of Bradfords biggest home attendance of the season . We will reflect on our poor away form after tomorrow and just to compound things i expect Rotherham to beat Plymouth . This will almost certainly rule us out of automatic promotion as there will be at least +10 goal difference against us, so irrispective of the Gillingham game we will be out of the running before a ball is kicked next week . This will be Garys dilemma tomorrow ,does he attack Bradford and go for the win ,defend and try and get at least a point or steal all three! . The fat man at Rotherham is playing mind games and is saying we will win tomorrow i hope it comes back to haunt him and hes right .The one positive is Bradford have injuries at the back ,and the crowd cant score no matter how hard they cheer ,but i fear the worst i hope im wrong.

Our four previous visits to Valley Parade as a League club have all ended as draws after 90 minutes. (OK, so we got done in extra time in the League Cup)
The three league games have all ended 1-1 with an unlikely triumvirate of goal scorers in Chris Palmer, John McGrath and Paul Boertien.
I predict more of the same. 1-1, Sharps or O'Connor to get on the scoresheet!
Plymouth to do the business against Rotherham and Cheltenham to win at Exeter to have us all scrambling for the calculators on the last day!
Looks like overtime for Otep!

Bradford 3 Brewers 0. Having had a succession of must-win matches I don't expect a rabbit-in-the-headlights display like against Vale, I still fear this will be too much for them. I won't be too despondent though, we've had a season that none of us predicted.

I know that even in my wildest dreams we're not going to win this one, but I'll make a daft prediction of Bradford 2 Albion 3. Who knows? Who'd've guessed the Prime Minister would have been at the Pirelli Stadium today hold up a Brewers No 10 shirt with his name on it!

For the life of me, I cannot see us getting anything out of this game but like Oldbrookender I am daftly going to forecast a 2.1 win for the Brewers. We've got to win one of these away games surely!!!!
