Quite an ironic statement from one who continually bangs on about the fact that "People do not have to part with their cash to attend should they choose not to."
And the biggest know-all on RAB.

It's not ironic at all. it's got nothing to do with it - as you, of course, well know. The Bulls fans who were there and actually WATCHED what the team did, clapped them off the field. If you don't go to games, it seems obvious that you're not best placed to comment about the team's performances. You, for example, didn't go, yet leap in with another "McNamara Out" poll.

Are you conceding that I know more than you, then?

And why on earth would they want to clap them off the field after another defeat? That completely bemuses me.
FWIW, since I started the aforementioned poll, I have found out some interesting information that may well exonerate Mr M from a lot of the blame, but on the flip side, make the applauding of the team after the game even more baffling than I first thought.

In terms of RL, yes. Many on here do. That does not neccessarily mean that their personal opinions are always right though.

..... go on then....you cant leave it like that!
FWIW I clapped them off for the second half effort and just a blind show of loyalty/unity as us and the players were beaten a long way from Odsal and booing just didnt seem the right thing in the moment. (rightly or wrongly)

You're kidding? You really don't understand?
I would reckon over the years I've followed Bradford, I've clapped them off after a defeat an absolute shedful of times. If a team tries its knackers off and does its best to win, however unsuccessfully, then it would be mean not to recognize the efforts of those players. Well, to me, it would.
Your view isn't really that whenever a team loses, you sulk and fold your arms? is it?
Maybe it is. The result seems to be all that interests you.

Agreed.
However, if you had bothered to read the paragraph that followed the quote, you would see that I was suggesting exactly the opposite of what you are suggesting may have been the case.

Careful FA commensense replies will get you hate mail or worse a personal visit from Asim!
The phrase politically correct is in itself politcally incorrect so should be rephrased politically stupid!

Your weird cryptic comment, which you haven't cared to expand upon, suggested no such thing. Not even in Greek.
What you wrote:why on earth would they want to clap them off the field after another defeat?
..is not capable of meaning exactly the opposite of what it says. Not even to you.
