    Bolton are below us, but still lost again. I actually think Barrow will be a harder game than tonight

    It will be a different outlook if we win those.

    Morale will improve for the players, and it could easily turn the oil tanker around.

    Unfortunately, if we don't perform in those 'easier' games, the pressure will be massive.

    Big couple of weeks for the players.

    It has on here mate. But fans I speak with at work, and fans that called Radio Leeds after Saturday's match still vigorously defending McCall. If it wasnt for his legendary status he still commands, it would be even worse. No room for sentiment, the lazy appointment has backfired and we are now even far worse than we were under Bowyer

    And McCall had a hand in scunthorpe. And were are they in the league.
    As you say it was a lazy appointment by Captain admin and it's back fired. This legendary status is bull shite to me. I've no time for it.

    1 I would never employed him.
    2 I'd sack him tonight.
    3 Rupp needs this CEO bollox sorting out too.
    4 Rupp just sell up. You cant run a company from Germany.

    Come on RC & @feats......
    Who else do you think in their right mind would take the managers role, the whole club is toxic, it will ruin even the best young managers career, we’ve tried everything in search of the perfect manager,
    Shall we go young hungry coach with loads of modern ideas.....
    Collins didn’t work
    Drury didn’t work
    Oh ok let’s go with a tried and tested manager with experience of playing in a higher league
    Grayson
    Perhaps a really successful coach on the way up who’s cut his teeth north of the border
    Hopkin
    Ok none of the above, let’s go with someone who would run through walls for the club, a local hero who can bring the whole fan base together
    McCall
    Jackson
    Abbott
    Is no one else noticing a pattern?
    Until we have root and branch change at the club from top down, Nothing will change and managers will be set up to fail.

    McCall will be dreading the FA cup tie, if we had drawn Pompey away we would lose 3-0 and nobody would bat an eyelid. Lose to a team that sound like a Robbie Williams tribute band and our humiliation goes national.

    that's what he said at the end of his interview tonight..

    wonder if that's why nobody wanted to sign for us in the summer?

    - player x, "if I sign, what are we aiming for?"
    - McCall, "we can aim to finish 12th to 7th."
    - player x, "nah. I want out of this league asap. I'm going to sign for Forest Green Rovers or Cambridge."

    Great post,
    Unfortunately only one man can do that and if the figures being quoted are to be believed what Rupp wants for the club are correct it ain't gonna happen IMO.
    We hear Julian has someone lined up to take the CEO position I cant believe anyone who's done that job before would come to Bradford City and just to take a salary, surely it has to be someone who to be more than a CEO maybe owner or part of a consortium of investors.

    After what I saw of the lad Hosannah tonight I believe he could do a job as our wide man on the right, deceiving pace and tricky on the ball.
