    Sacked by Christmas to be replaced by Collins. Who else would want it while Mr Trashit is in charge?

    What's the manager got to do with signings? When was the last time a manager put in a request for a signing? Come to think of it when was the last time we had a manager? We made signings for fun in the six weeks in the summer when no managerial requisitions were being filled out so I hardly think manager turnovers to blame.

    Even if a manager has no say in signings who the manager is dictates signings. If you have Big Sam as a manager you aren’t going to sign the same players as you would under Pep

    Being peed off as the rest of us does NOT make him good at his job. He said Nahki Wells was sh1t so there you go. He gives his list to Rahic who says Yes or no and then moves on to the next player on his laptop. He is a failed manager and coach . Apart from Wyke what good players has he brought in?

    There'll always be problems, simply because of who he's working for but he's had 2 years at the head of the fabled 'transfer committee' and 90% of the players he's brought in simply aren't good enough. The other 10% are made up of unproven kids who may improve and Charlie Wyke who was moved on the minute someone flashed a £20 note.

    I think you're completely over egging it. This is league one not the Champions league and the majority of good players at this level can play any style.

    And there lies the big problem with Edin's model.

    To achieve the results he wants 99% of the time you have to speculate and spend money but as with everything else at the club, he's trying to do it on the cheap.

    So wait you are claiming that CL players are technically inferior to League One? It takes a higher degree of technique to play in multiple ways and top players are much more likely to be able to adapt to different styles than a player lower down. If you are playing a certain style having players that fit that are important, if you are playing a style with short passing and mainly on the ground having tall, strong players who are great in the air isn’t what you need but having those smaller more technical players is no good if you are playing a more aerial based style

    Nope, I never said that. Not even anything remotely close to it.

    Cool story though.

    Since the sacking of Stuart McCall on the 5th of Feb whilst been 6th in LG 1. @officialbantams have played 28 league games under 4 different head coaches with a record of 6 wins, 7 draws and 15 defeats. #BCAFC are currently 22nd in LG 1 with 1 win in their last 9 league outings.

    WOW

    to think Two years ago today, #BCAFC lost their record as the country's only unbeaten side in all competitions but still remained 2nd in LG 1. Funny how football can change very quickly!! #Drained
