    Not sure his desire for football was there for whatever reason at the end, whether it be how long he'd been in the game or the aftermath of 11/05/85.
    Never continued at the sharp end of football after us, and moved into business quite succesfully.
    A bit of punditory thereafter & moved back to his 1st love Town (cough) to work there in hospitality I believe.
    A most unassuming man but a large part in the recent history of our club.

    It is said he felt somewhat bitter about his sacking coming so quickly after the return to VP and it turned him off football management.
    Lovely guy and a great manager, says much about him that he did a video for the Bobby Campbell book launch when he couldn’t make it.

    Really sad news to wake up this morning

    For me the best manager I have seen at city in the 40 odd years I have been watching.

    RIP Trevor

    So sorry to hear this sad news. One of the best ever managers at Valley Parade who worked under very difficult times. Wonderful team to watch in the promotion year and did wonderfully well in division two considering being homeless due to the aftermath of that awful fire.

    As many have said he was a true gentleman and was harshly treated by the board at the end.
    Rest in Peace Trevor, thanks for your service.

    Boys just enjoy now.... whatever that is. I was sat in the garden last weekend looking up and watched 6-8 buzzards flying around. Simple pleasure but nice to be alive... keep safe lads and enjoy every minute

    RIP TC great manager for us....

    As a young man, my first experience was of Trevor Cherry as the manager of Bradford City.

    In incredible job, an incredible man both sides of 11.05 and an absolute legend and star for Bradford City. A real reason behind the modern history of our football club.

    RIP, Mr Cherry. God bless.

    Shocking news.He was always held in high regard by me and gave me some of my fondest memories. He was absolutely the right fit for the Club and quietly reshaped us into a good footballing side who got us promoted. Did not deserve to leave in the way he did and I think the Board acted in haste. RIP Trevor, you really did mean a lot to so many of us and will be sorely missed. Condolences to his nearest and dearest . A gentleman and a true BCFC Legend.

    Agreed. The one sacking I still think was terrible - despite the progress we made afterwards
