    Speculation between fans on forums like this is absolutely fine
    Printed press matter (in this case a very poor production) is not,
    Just hours from the most important game in Morecambe's history is very disrespectful your views would be very different should the " boot be on the other foot" extremely poor timing
    Alarm bells ring for me he has length left on his contract and has stated a manager needs to finish the contract he has signed not sure what conclusion to draw from that no guarantees he will gain promotion with us next season which should be the minimum requirement, then what !!!!
    Morecambe remain silent (at the moment) obviously trying to maintain momentum but will no doubt have their say after today's game

    Had just about enough of this saga, can't wait for an end to what has been a miserable season.For those fellow oldies I hope we can finish this week by saying TWTWTW and have something good and positive to chew over on here.

    I wonder why Derek Adams would ever consider joining the poison chalice known as Bradford City.. dont get me wrong id love for him to be here but I think It would be a bad career move for hiim, we are on a downward spiral, potentially looking at conference within 2 seasons.

    Adams doing his pre match team talk…
    “Do what you like lads, fck it, I’m off to Bratfud after final whistle”

    Because if Adams can turn our fortunes around and get another promotion on his CV that will be pretty impressive.

    Or potentially in the championship in 2 seasons , or division 1 or the same league. Bradford city has more potential than most teams in the bottom 2 divisions. That is a good enough reason for most potential managers.

    Don't see much chance of that. If he can get us out of this division, I can accept what I think will be dreary football. He will then have improved his CV which should help him achieve his aim of getting back to the Scottish premier. We hopefully will be in a position to build further.

    We will not be in the National League in 2 years. In fact I reckon we will be in a higher league than Morecambe by then

    This is exactly it. He’s not even our manager yet our local press is speculating the players he will sign - it’s embarrassing and will be even more so if he doesn’t sign.

    If he’s already signed then wait for the club to officially announce it then speculate as much bull sh*t as you like.

    I reckon Adams will be nipping a bit if it's not all signed. After that effort on Saturday, I reckon a Spanish "choker" might be up for grabs soon :imp::OO:.

    Why do you think it will be “dreary football”

    Parker just can not win. Comment using speculation people are losing their shit, don’t comment on speculation people accuse him of being a club puppet

    Secretly, I'd love it to be somebody else than Adams...

    Just imagine those losing their shit and those who would look a daft sod from their comments on here...

    There have been others mentioned who have contractual agreements to abide by before they can get another job, so you could be correct.

    Decent start by both teams - so far Stockton reminds me of Mark Leonard on a good day
