    the club has made the right decision. Hopefully we climb the table now and get a few shots on target.

    They create their own market by being both a news outlet and bookies. They report a rumour or start one and wait for the punters to pile on. Ignore the odds: go with your gut feeling based on local knowledge.

    With 26 years in the industry, its a market I stear well clear off due to sod all market liquidity.

    I doubt in the great scheme of things many people will be betting on who will be the next Bradford city manager

    Hopkin also found himself having to use the unattached market - and if we could have kept hold of Henry and Jim O’Brien we might have had a better chance.

    You'll be surprised.

    The bookies don't like losing a tenner and try to make sure they're in profit.

    Sky Bet are the worse as what @Mitchelldownie@Mitchelldownie us correct you will use the media to create odds and then change odds to get you to think I better put money on.

    They know about about as much as you when it comes to naming the new manager. It's only when it gets to odds on that you should start looking but even then it could be nonsense.

    Well to be fair, that would be my view, but these days he has more strings to his bow!

    Rarely use Skybet purely because of their overround on markets which equates to poorer value for the custome. Tough old place to get a bet on too... Best price on Mullins horse at Market Rasen, Panic Attack, wanted £50 @7/4. Nope a mere £12 offered.

    Yeah that's also true.

    I doubt necessarily mind the hoof though, as long as it produces excitement and chances. In reality the playing style usually needs to be mixed up in this division anyway.

    Fair enough I’m presuming you’ve got inside knowledge that I haven’t. Bowyer did come out and praise Guthrie.

    Just hope we’ve got somebody lined up that can make a positive impact. We need them in quick we don’t want to be drifting for these next 2 home games.
    Skybet and Sky are totally different companies. Skybet are owned by Stars Group these days

    Just heard Ryan Sparks on Radio Leeds. He said the club supported Bowyer in the transfer window!!! I find that a bit hard to believe, unless the insinuation is that Bowyer couldn't attract quality players to come and play for him

    Well imagine Doyle. ..... probably is last move Swindon throw a few more squid at him for now and wow what a goal bonus and then promotion and another pay rise or leave for a better club especially if he as thirty goals plus.

    Or stay with Mickey tangerine monotone and really finish is career off and sign for Harrogate at the end of the season...... (They would actually beat us at this moment.) We did really sell it did we Gazza. Who seriously would come at their moment
