    His body action says it all.

    I doubt he’ll be coming here

    Congratulations to Morecambe though.

    A far stronger side than what they were years back

    What an absolute defeatist if that's the case. Do you think Brentfords manager should chuck the towel in also?

    It will be very hard in league one tor Morecambe. Adams said himself that the board have told him that financially league one is a challenge. Im expecting the players to get sold off regardless

    It doesn't say much about him if he does. What kind of weak mentality do you have to have to not back yourself to do it in a higher division. And as they will be expected to come back down all he can really do is surprise people if he makes it even a fight and certainly won't hurt his rep so it's not like he won't get more opportunities. if anything he has nothing to lose staying but joining you he has everything to lose

    And promoted at the end familiar, whats to worry about with a guy with Parky's record whilst at Valley Parade.
    I don't think for one minute it will be Parky just adding his name as he might be still on gardening leave until June ;)

    Congratulations to Morecambe, never in a million years did I ever think they would be in a higher league than us in my lifetime.

    Adams proving what a fantastic manager he is. If he leaves them now to join us, then he will leave on the highest note possible.

    Interesting few days ahead now waiting to see whether it was Adams all along we were waiting for, if it was only a verbal agreement, might he just be now having second thoughts and stay at Morecambe?. If so, has Sparks got a back up plan, or back to the drawing board and advertise for the role

    Yep because Morecambe are getting £170 million for getting into league one.

    If i was tom frank i would throw towel in, Ivan toney is also gash nowhere near prem quality. (massive levels of sarcasm.)

    look at swindon. Its hard to stay up in league one.

    Was the penalty as dodgy as the media said it was?
    Did Adams get in Ellisons face at the end?

    Everything too lose ?
    We’re in the bottom league and we average over 12/13k a week . In the league above we can average 16/17 k . With the correct manger in place this club can go places . We was one win away from the championship . We’re currently having our lows but we’ve had many highs and they’ll come again . There’s nothing for any lower league manger coming to Bradford to loose but everything to gain . Look at parky it can be a spring board
