Let's talk, says free agent Brandon

Chris Brandon today opened the door for a possible switch to hometown club City.
Brandon has been released by new Huddersfield boss Stan Ternent after four years at the Galpharm.
And the Bradford-born midfielder indicated that he would welcome an approach from the Bantams.
Brandon said: "I'm open to offers at the moment and I'd be happy to talk to Bradford if they are interested.
"I've been left in limbo a little bit as Gerry Murphy wanted to keep me at Hudders-field but the new manager has come in and made his decision, even though he's never seen me play."
The 32-year-old grew up a City fan and used to idolise Stuart McCall as a youngster. He still lives within ten minutes of Valley Parade and has made no secret that he would love to play for his boyhood club one day.
But despite the pulling power of his Bradford roots, City still face plenty of competition for his signature. His wages at Huddersfield are also believed to be above what they would be prepared to offer.
"My agent has been contacted by about a dozen clubs," he added, "so we'll just have to wait and see what happens."
Brandon began his career at Park Avenue and did not turn pro until 23 when he joined Torquay. After moving to Chesterfield, Peter Jackson brought him back to West Yorkshire in July 2004 and he played 148 games for Huddersfield, scoring 14 goals.
Brandon can play anywhere across the midfield and Murphy briefly played him up front when he took temporary charge after Andy Ritchie was sacked.
But Brandon sat out the last three games of the season after suffering a hamstring injury during the derby win over Leeds.
Having released 13 players last week, McCall is busy finalising his transfer targets and will be watching the play-off games closely.
The City boss said: "There are a lot of play-offs in the next couple of weeks where players might be available. There are also players that have got year options on their contracts and the clubs will be deciding whether to take that up.
"I could go out now and get five or six players but are they going to be better than we've got? We want to aim high and try to get the best possible.
"The phone calls are flying about and it's nice to hear agents saying that a player might have x, y or z to go to but he'd really like to speak to you."

in my opinion just past his sell by date-- would he come on a play and pay basis thereby minimising the risk to us of signing potentially a sick note waithing to happen.

let's hope so.
as regards comparison with WETHERALL-- Agreed but misdlfield is a demanding position.
Windass-- well he's a one off!!
All I was trying to say was that we are renowned for having players who are just that bit past it without nurturing our youth team.
Ok one or two older players with youngsters doing leg work etc but even before next season starts take a look at the age of some of those retained.
We maybe need just one more player at his age now:the rest should be raw big and strong youngsters.

Glad to see you are still sane Shaun. You are obviously intelligent and make some of the contributors a little concerned. Unless they are on the books of City I just cannot see their point but alas if they are they will certainly be on the minimum wage, they have to be to supplement the few at the top. P.S.Get down there for the free offer lads.
Mr Sensible - I'm sure Shaun from Richmond will agree he comes on here to do nothing more but provoke other people and add stupid comments he doesn't mean, he is not carrying sensible views.
Do you really think city pay players minimum wages? Even Kyle Nix, who is paid very modestly, makes a reasonable amount playing for city. go and ask someone in McDonalds how much they earn in comparison.
Why any City supporter (don't worry I know you're not one) would moan if City signed a player on low wages I don't know. If Brandon can get better money elsewhere but chooses City i say that shows a fantastic attitude and he'll give his all for City. I would not be annoyed City haven't tried to offer him stupidly high wages to tempt him.
Supplement the few at the top - the usual meaningless dig from you that is based on nothing but you think makes you sound clever and know something we don't, when you don't have clue.
In closing mate. The season is now OVER. You're free season ticket has EXPIRED. Obviously you are not going to renew like us 'idiots' and you don't support Bradford City.

I'd rather have four quality players on good wages than six average signings on average wages.

You would see more heart in his performances if he was 40 then most of what you have seen this season!
let's hope so.
as regards comparison with WETHERALL-- Agreed but misdlfield is a demanding position.
Windass-- well he's a one off!!
All I was trying to say was that we are renowned for having players who are just that bit past it without nurturing our youth team.
Ok one or two older players with youngsters doing leg work etc but even before next season starts take a look at the age of some of those retained.
We maybe need just one more player at his age now:the rest should be raw big and strong youngsters.
