Rovers have started to get it together. Since conceding a daft last minute equalizer to limerick they have beaten Dundalk bohs galway bray (throw in longford in the EA ) lost to derry (deserved something) and lost to cork (fair enough but sending off killed it)
Bradley has had half a season with prety much a whole new first team.
At least it's enjoyable to watch, this time last year under fenlon we were like watching paint dry..

Only won one in 7 I think

Not sure what's happened but John Sullivan is a lot to do with it, he was finally dropped last night and then Bucko pulled up in the warm so he went right wing back, despite Douglas being on the bench

Bray linked with Owen Garvan, as are Pats and Limerick.

He was injured and lost his place to Buckley, which was deserved, but why he didn't play yesterday after Buckley pulled up I dunno, could have cost us the match

Managers never seemed to like him at all, always giving him stick, talking to an ex player yesterday and he was saying all the players know the fans absolutely love him but they couldn't understand why and didn't think he was that good

One of my favourites, gives absolutely everything and solid at the back

Could do with signing 2 centre midfielders and a right back. They've been a joy to watch at times this season though, Greene and McCabe in particular have been very impressive. They could have scored double figures against Rovers a few weeks ago, never seen a Bray team win as convincingly in my life!

They are very inconsistent though and I think the break is coming at the right time for them.

Haven't heard anything about players not getting paid.

Not think Bucko and Douglas are enough at rb?

Agree on CM and everything else

Players don't seem to give a toss at all lately, I've seen connolly play well twice this year

Not for me. Buckley much better in midfield and Hugh isn't a top 6 PD player for me. 

Connolly struggling big time compared with his form of last season. He's a streaky player tho so wouldn't be surprised to see him improve after the break.

I have been going to Bray matches for 20 years, it's never been as entertaining as this, really looking forward to the 2nd half of the season.

Connolly only had eight or so decent games last year from ones I went to, needs to apply himself more

Gonna be exciting alright, so much on the the line

A few things here

The figures don't tally with official attendances

They doubled the season ticket price, of course sales were going to be low.

They shut down the supporters club

They drove away a lot of long standing supporters and volunteers in the ownership battle

They openly use the club as a property play

The chairman made a string of racist comments online and the next week launched am anti racism campaign

There's next to no marketing done

If you want to increase attendances you explain you need more fans to keep the investment going. Not lambast fans for not attending.

The timing is ridiculous in the middle of a big match. People were absolutely fuming at the match.
You could see phones being passed around and people shaking their head in disgust.

General concensus was its the begging of the end.

It's an insult to fans who turn up week in, week out.

There's no recent history of high attendance at Bray, to expect otherwise was foolish.

At the same time, attendance is 1,000+ at most games, which should make ends meet.

They put huge money into attacking players and not much else - stupid, all games we've lost have been through the middle, where our weakest players are.

It's a f**king ridiculous statement, absolutely nothing good can come from it.

This has been a sh*t evening.
