    Personally I think Collins felt threatened by Killa. Such an experienced professional, great career, well liked, etc.

    There's no way that was Collins decision to let him go

    He may have been the mouth piece that told him but he wont have had the clout to make that call alone

    So Micky told him that he didn't think he had it anymore....after being player of the year season before and shower of sh**e that was O'Connor and NKP in defence...wow from an ex-player that never ever got anywhere near the heights of Killa… unbelievable Jeff!!

    Cannot believe what I am reading on this thread. Kilgallon never even mentioned it once and yet our fans have it down as Edins decision and cannot have been Collins?

    Edin has no chance. No matter what he does or even if he’s not involved. I get people don’t like him and they have their reasons but we cannot blame everything on him because we don’t agree with it.

    He said he enjoyed it here. Never mentioned the owners once and stated it was Collins who came to him. Every manager has a different opinion. This one was a bad one. But why is Edin the one who has caused it?

    Taking an interview and twisting to every which way to suit a pre determined prerogative is a joke. Laughable. Really is.

    Just goes to show how clueless Collins was. No mention of a clause, blame laid unequivocally at Collins door. Good luck for the future Killa.

    It doesn't really matter to me whether the Killa decision was Rahic's or that of Collins.

    Ultimately, IMO Killa's untimely departure from our club is yet another consequence of having a complete amateur who is woefully out of his depth at the top.

    You would back any manager you figured would be around for some time.

    Like Stuart McCall.

    But wait, Edin didn't back Stuart McCall, because it didn't suit his long term ambitions.

    Contrarily, I'm expected to believe Edin 'backed' Collins by effectively sacking Kilgallon, before sacking Collins the week after?

    Yeah, doesn't really work logically, does it?

    At best, it's naive if innocent management - at worst, it's shenanigans.

    Then you consider Stuart was sacked not long after a transfer window shut, and then Grayson never even saw a window, before Collins was axed after a window shut, and people start to imagine pretty little patterns.

    But you're probably right, mate, to be perfectly honest, it's all just a series of coincidences, nothing malicious. Why do I say that? Because the man couldn't run a tap, let alone a football club, so to expect his decisions to make sense really isn't logical. But that doesn't give me more cause to support the guy, it gives me less.

    She isn’t revelling in it, she’s just making a comment on a football forum. Is she not allowed to pass comment AND still watch the team?

    You carry on clapping like a demented seal all the way to League Two if you like but I'll bet you're in the minority.

    People are "moaning", for the most part, because they care and people are angry and annoyed because of the trajectory of the club at present. A trajectory that 95% think will continue with the current owners.

    Fair enough if you want to cheer the team but how the feck can you "enjoy the football" if we're getting pumped by the likes of Macclesfield, Wycombe and Accrington Stanley? The idea of creating an impressive atmosphere under those conditions is about as unrealistic as Edin's master plan that's causing the conditions.

    I’m at a loss why anybody would defend the indefensible. I don’t give 2 furry shxtes whether he was let go by Collins or Edin.

    Rahic has got 99% of owning a football club wrong so far so is it any wonder we blame him for the other 1%

    A dog left a steaming turd in my back garden yesterday I said to the Mrs that’ll be Edin’s dog that.

    He doesn’t deserve a crumb of support

    Probably because Rahic kept out of the conversation with killa and let Collins do his dirty work so it showed Collins had some balls and some clout to the other players

    Either way in my opinion Collins was Edins puppet and play thing

    If all the dialog comes from Collins killa cant say any different

    Collins was edins bitch for sure

    I think i would be inclined to agree with you for the fact that Edin is not only responsible for the demise of Killa, he's responsible for the demise of this great football club. I wouldn't trust anything the charlatan says.

    What a lovely bloke Matt. He genuinely didn’t understand why he was let go. Yes I know he left but it was forced on him. He doesn’t have a side to him. He is just a straight forward professional football player, and got on with training to keep himself fit.

    Excellent point. If you've read her posts over the years you would know she is not revelling in it but in pain at the moment as should any proper minded BCFC fan be at the moment!!

    If Killa believed that the real decision maker for his departure was Rahic why do you think he didn't say so? Killa had nothing to lose in pointing his finger.

    Why shouldn't we all accept Killa's explanation at face value?

    Have I told you what to think and say? My only agenda is to see my team stay in league 1 as an absolute priority, then to go on and build for promotion to the Championship. That our club returns to the community club it was out of the wreckage and is now Bradford City.

    I don’t have a problem disagreeing with what I say, I do however have a problem with derogative remarks and comments. I am not moaning about Rahic, I am a concerned and worried supporter that our club may be on a slippery road to nowhere. I turn up both home and away to watch the team and I will continue to give them my support. However, I am not blind as to what is happening to my club, so I will not stay silent nor will I believe what rubbish is chucked out there for fans unless it is backed up with concrete evidence. That is almost impossible because everyone is being gagged in one format or another.

    Because he was still our player and if Collins was stuburn enough not to pick him it says to me just how much Collins was out of his depth when our defending was a shambles.

    You need to be in it for the long haul making statements like that, KK ;)

    I've been down this road once, and some one here absolutely won't have it.

    Whoa, trust me, the rest of Keighley won't be happy he's giving us a worse name. And that's saying something :rolleyes:
