Bradford striker Dean Windass has revealed how hate mail from his own club´s fans has made a difficult period almost unbearable.The 37-year-old was publicly criticised by his own manager, chairman and fans following his recent horror tackle on Bournemouth defender Neil Young which earned him a straight red card.Windass said: "Fans think when we get banned we have a big party and don´t care, but nothing´s further from the truth. I got three letters and in one they threatened to stab me if I went into Bradford city centre. I´ve not involved the police but it´s upset my family."
