    I doubt we will be poaching another manager and paying compensation like we did with Adams. If we did go down that route, I would prefer approaching Matt Taylor at Exeter

    A friend of mine said something very similar about halfway through the second half against Exeter when we stopped watching the game. He said we've just lost our mojo. He followed it up with a better line .... 'We're less claret & amber and more grey & magnolia'. Something has definitely gone missing over the past couple of years and we need to find it again.

    Probably time to get our Claret and Amber stripes back again, that will go some way to connecting with me, rather than this white ‘marching on together’ kit!

    Anybody who thinks Grant McCann will entertain Bradford City needs their head looking at. And those who wanted rid of Adam’s also need their head looking at.

    Don’t think that we should rush into appointing the new manager. Season is pretty much dead and it will interesting to see how the players now react.
    Happy to let Trueman and Kiwomya see which players are worth keeping next season. I’m sure they will get more from the group than Adams did, I believe Trueman is quite good at man management something Adams lacked.
    Crucial that we get the next manager right so take your time Sparks

    Please No, thrice no. He plays the Adams formation. With this squad not a hope in hell would I support that idea. Every team in the DiV sussed us when it was the dynamic duo, then they sussed Adams which took about 10 minutes. You want a repeat……Nooooooo!

    To be honest if I just wanted entertaining football I would welcome McCall coming back (AGAIN) but I want us to get promoted and entertaining football doesn't always go with it.
    Interestingly although Adams ended up pissing everybody off, in all those draws we had we created a lot of chances and if we had converted 4/5 of those draws into wins by taking some of those chances we would probably not be speculating on who our next manager is going to be.

    To anyone wanting Stuart back, hasn’t the poor guy suffered enough?

    Easy, employ a manager born in the North of England then we would have Northern Soul.

    I’d try and get Rosenior from Derby.

    Young, tries to play the right way, and doing a great job alongside Rooney with both hands tied behind their back.

    I also completely disagree with those that say that it doesn’t matter if we play good football.

    Whoever comes in will go through tough spells, and at those times you get a lot more patience from fans and board if the football is entertaining.

    I’ve not been to a game since October. This is down to a variety of reasons but there have been several occasions I could have gone but simply couldn’t face watching us play awful footy to scrape a 1-1 draw at home.

    Don't be silly. Give Trueman a bit of credit, he is a young coach not yet set in his ways. He has seen the problems Adams style of play created, especially how it pissed off us lot and probably had to go along with Adams on it.
