    I wager at least two of them....Threlkeld and Stockton. Probably another, maybe two.

    Would love to sign Carey. Pick of the bunch.

    If I was a Morecambe fan, I'd want it confirming ASAP after the final, win or lose.

    Agree
    Very poor ethics from the T&A however am I right in thinking the club must have released this information for print very poor from the club too if that's the case
    Will be cheering the Shrimpers this afternoon and hoping they can retain L1 status next season (if promoted)
    Fans on here seem to forget or weren't around during the McFarland/Derby saga a lot of bad feeling around then and just before a big match for us too
    48 hrs later would have been the right time to publish this article

    On the pitch wasn't it ? When he jumped on Morrision after he scored. I would hope Adams has more class than meredith.

    Unpopular opinion but I thought he was a bit of a POS. Wasnt just the Millwall move. Good player mind...

    Just read his wiki page and that in itself shows how far we've fallen. Whilst at York (in the national league)it mentions games he played in v Newport, Oxford, Luton & Wimbledon. Basically 25% of the national league top division from 10 years ago are above us in the league !

    It just sums the T & A up. A classless newspaper that just puts Bradford in a bad light!

    Why people buy it I will never know.

    Yes I have to say it’s a bit below the belt that article. Poor form from Simon on this one I’m afraid.

    Fair point, but there’s a line IMO

    This is true.

    However, Adams isn't our manager. Now if you wrote something to say that Adams will be our manager after todays game then fine.

    However, it's just about which players he will bring. So it's not fair on the club in this day.

    Also we have a recruitment director don't we? It's always easy to link players with the manager they have worked with in the past but in truth its very rare many more or with the manager these days. LAZY from Simon yet again.

    Not really sure I see the problem here. Parker has papers to sell and neither he nor the T&A have any loyalties to Morecambe.

    So just come out and say Adams is the next manager then isn’t of dancing about.

    Don’t be dragging players into it when we have a recruitment director.

    Those that buy the T & A are mugs. The newspaper mags of their city every day.

    The truth is nobody can stop people speculating and that is what this article does. City though have played it right they have said absolutely nothing about the identity of the new manager which was the right thing to do
