Thanks all.
Did a piece a few months ago, never done anything like it before. Thought I'd put something together yesterday after discussions on here. Didn't expect it to be published but Jason very kindly did.Stop hovering to collapse... Click to collapse... Hover to expand...

Let's not forget the great games and wins against Chelsea, Wigan, Arsenal, Sunderland, Aston Villa at home and that fantasic night at Villa Park, great memories we Bradford City fans carry all our lives and when the times are bad like at the monent we can reminisce those great times.Brackenrigg, Rocket, Crucian Carp and 2 others like this. -
So we'll get to see if Fordys wish really gives us that much of a boost. I'm confident that this will actually make it worse and that's a biggest statement after the shower at the weekend.
See you soon League 2.rmbenson007, vladimir, Captain Grumpy and 1 other person like this. -

When Hopkin said he would make changes for the pompey game i didn’t this would be one of them lol. Talk about deserting a sinking ship.

Ultimately I think this was the right decision and fair play to Hopkin for walking. His football was not suited to the players he inherited or those who he signed hence the dreadful results.
We've got two options now - appoint someone temporary to try and keep us up or appoint the best man to get us out of league 2. Personally I'd go for the latter, give him the rest of the season to assess the squad, get used to the club and then he can start to rebuild.Old city man, RonnieBrown, Faithful Bantam and 1 other person like this. -

Would we actually pay money to bring a manager in? We already have at least a £2M deficit this season. Stefan needs to come out and let us know if he's in it for the long haul or not.

I think the biggest worry is the fact that we’re riddled with £2m of losses, on the verge of dropping into the basement division and owned by a bloke with absolutely 0 interest in the club, or Football. Some mess.

Quite shocked by the timing of this. Very poor result at the weekend and maybe it’s clear the players are not playing for him. Surprised he resigned however.
Hopkin seemed to go backwards in his tactics in these last few weeks. Back to the direct football and this persistence with blundering through the middle wouldn’t cut it in this league. Teams are better than that. I hoped he would turn it around and felt we weren’t in the worst form but the defeat to Walsall killed it for me.
It’s a clean slate for everyone now. The ousted players who we are paying good money to might aswell get them back in the side now push for places
No matter what anyone says we have a squad who can get results in this league. It is very lopsided but we have some quality and should be doing better in my eyes.
Who do we turn to now? Steve Evans as much as I hate him he would know how to instil that siege mentality we need to get us out of this mess. The fans who won’t attend would soon come back if we won a couple of games.
I’d like a plan with an appointment not just to survive this season but looking at next season. We cannot continue this short termism. It’s ok saying Chelsea etc do it but we don’t have the finances to continue to rip apart a squad and hope to build something.
My top 3 would be Hurst, Cowley or Bowyer. No particular order but all would suit us. However Cowley won’t come so that leaves two
Don’t look at the betting markets yet. They mean nothing. A tenner on someone can move the marketTolly856, The Evidence, CT Bantam and 1 other person like this. -
