    I can't say it's true but the person's name I heard yesterday has worked with Ryan before does the name John kear. Mean anything?

    No disrespect to Trueman but this is a big ,big job and requires someone with experience in not only a dogfight but a rebuild capable of challenging.
    Managing an under 18 side ain't going to cut the mustard.
    Anyway he's ruled himself out add to the list Simon.

    He wouldn't be my choice but at least he's got something to prove. Failed in his last two jobs.

    Fail in his next and he's unemployed for a long time.

    Morning @How@How. Not for a minute do I think that as we are Bradford city, that gives us entitlement to stay up. On form, you are right we are relegated. Bottom, agree.
    But I do believe, that form would not continue. We would pick up draws and victory and ultimately scrape enough points to stay up.
    The squad is average but a fully fit squad would get us enough points. In my opinion

    The amount of bang average 3rd and 4th division managers not willing to manage Bradford City FC is concerning and is a real reality check as to how much of a mess we’re in.

    Anything other than a proven, experienced boss would be a gamble, perhaps too big a gamble.

    I couldn't think of anything worse than listening to more football cliches.

    Ah, imagine Bradford City being in the third tier of the football pyramid. With Rupp, you can but dream.

    I’d hope you were right but I just cannot see it. Over the last 10 games we have 5 points from a possible 30. We are dreadful.
    It needs a good manager to turn it around and they cost money

    Honestly I believe if over the last 10 games had we had (at the same time) Novak fit, Evans fully fit/motivated, Clarke, Hosannah and Ismail fit (I know, I know) that the 5 points from 30 would be more. Note, I say more!! Say we had 6 points more (a win and 3 draws for example) and totalled 11 points from 30, we would now be in on 20 points.
    7 points from relegation. Amazingly, 8 points from the play offs.

    Maybe I'm being optimistic. But for how bad we have been, we have had a bloody big dollop of injuries.

    We had injuries but even with McCall I don’t think we would have got many more points. He couldn’t get much of a tune out of then when we had Novak, Evans etc.
    A new manager and a good one will get points but we have to ge this one right and I don’t believe we will be safe without a) strengthening this squad and b) appointing a strong manager whatever the cost wage wise

    He’s like Flynn.At a club that loves him and destined for bigger and better things if not at those clubs but then somewhere higher up the league ladder.
