    Jamie Raynor has reported on Twitter that Greg Stebbings, Head of Physical Performance has left.
    He used to work for Featherstone Rovers, so I assume he was a Sparks appointment.
    Interesting.

    Alexander not impressed with the overall fitness levels of his squad perhaps?

    Didn’t he suggested in an interview that it was a concern or am I dreaming?

    Apparently he has posted he has left on LinkedIn, so presumably hasn't gone to another better post.

    Hope you’re right but once bitten (more than once actually) twice shy am afraid with Rupp and Sparks.

    The cynic in me says he's crap at his job given our injury record.

    You'll get no arguments from me on his performance, medical department or facilities they’re terrible and proven in the amount of injuries.

    Do I trust the club to replace him… no.

    His replacement has already been advertised - 12 months, 40hr per week, physical performance intern (voluntary)! ;)

    Hey Park keep believing everything that comes out of Bradford city representatives as gospel. You do know you can disagree with them they won’t take away your season ticket away?

    Doesn’t surprise me in the least that there are going to be changes in that area. Alexander has hinted about fitness levels from the start of his tenure I don’t think Hughes was a big believer in doing the hard miles.

    That Nick Allenby bloke seemed top notch at our place. Not sure he’s with Parky anymore at Wexam?!

    Was he here when Davies was constantly injured? Was Morais in and out? Halliday? Hanson? Just wondering if people forget over time about injury crisis in the past. I’m sure Parkie used a load of loans to cover injuries and blooded juniors to cover gaps too over the years.

    Just know that we were very fit when he was at ours. You cannot legislate for injuries that can occur at anytime or anyhow.

    Soft tissue injuries can be kept to a minimum with the right preparation and care
