    Exactly. The message is start winning or else. If they go down tonight it will add fuel to the rumour.

    Because of the unrest at the moment there are lots of people with their own agendas.

    I think the problem in clubs in general face with managers that their situation can change dramatically in the space of a few weeks. Just over 4 weeks ago we were getting ready to kick off against Crewe, at that point there was still talk of a play off push and if you said Alexander might not see out the month I don't think anyone would believe you. If we go into the game against MK in 2 weeks with no wins between now and then I'd expect Alexander will be under pressure with talk of 1 win in 11 games in all competitions.

    We’re spending more on paying managers off than we’re putting into the playing budget. Just imagine where we’d be if we had a long term strategy and the money could be spent on quality players.

    If he does get the sack, what happened of taking our time in getting the right man in for the job? The guy(Sparks) is making us a laughing stock.

    First of all I don't believe it for a minute, but just imagine if it was because he gave Young game time he has my upmost respect........not that that will pay his mortgage but good on you Graham.

    The time it took to bring him in is not far off the same as his time in charge, if true.

    What the hell is this club.

    And when we cant buy a win or a clean sheet lately..... our next games are Wimbledon (H), Wrexham (A), MK Dons (H). Wimbledon are 5th in the away table, then Wrexham are top of the Home table with 11 wins from 14 at home in the league and 43 goals scored in those 14 home games, followed by MK who are 9th in the home table but have scored 21 in 13 away league games.

    GA might not last out Feb if A) form continues as it has and B) results follow the form standings of the season so far.

    If so his days as Billy Bantam will be finished.
    Didn't realise Billy Bantam was Liam Chew chew.jpg here giving his take on Bradford City in this Video, he looks a sound guy.

    Then we'll just run another lengthy and robust search process, duh. ;-)

    The process will be very short this time. It will be based on who wants it and who is prepared to do it for buttons!

    Why hasn't Sparks realised that him making football decisions isn't working then?

    I mean, it's pretty clear to everyone outside of Sparks and Rupp.

    That would be preferable to picking Ash Taylor.

    Lose-lose situation for the lad, so why make it up?

    If it is made up nonsense, he's found out in no time and loses his job for creating harmful rumours about the clubs management. If it's true, he's found out in no time and loses his job for leaking news about the club.

    Are you speaking generally or specifically about the people/organisation who posted that article?

    You often speak in generalisations and deliberate vaguerisms so I'm asking you a specific question on this.

    Interesting an American entrepreneur is replying to city’s news on possibly parting way with GA on twitter….

    It is amusing mate, especially as we know now our only transfer rumour Jake Young is staying at the club, surely it can't be true..........................then again we are Bradford City.
