    Without going over old ground @sydneyIantam I believe most who stood by Rahic to the bitter end now acknowledge the situation most employee's at Bradford City worked under, this was from the ordinary clerk to our manager.
    Unfortunatly Rahic we a control freak and micro managed everyone at the club, on hearing some of the stories I'm not sure he didn't really believe right to the end his way would turn the results around.
    One fellow supporter telling me whilst watching the squad training he'd spoken with Edin about the situation with regards the present season and Edins reply was "everything will be fine" he really believed the clubs fortunes would change for the better.

    Interesting
    "But the ex-chairman has departed now and the mood seems to be better around the club. The supporters are back and they've got a really good squad of players who you would imagine will be good enough to get them out from where they are."
    Down to DH then

    Sounds like he's putting himself in the frame if Hopkin can't save us :).

    I don't think Stuart would ever put himself through the stress of managing the club he loves again.

    I disagree. I think he'll have that feeling of missed opportunity in the back of his mind like what he had to fulfil as a player. He came so close to a promotion with us and then one man got in the way of another pretty good shot.

    If circumstances aligned again, I could certainly see Stuart back in charge for a third time.

    I'd have him back in a heartbeat. I know you can never say never, but it is, alas, highly improbable.

    Would love to see him back but he looked so down trodden when he "left"
    I don't think it would do his career or his health much good
    Whoever he is managing are my "Second" club

    Me too. Don’t you just miss that lovely self deprecating humour. I want him back, but why would he come back here, they are building something good at Scunthorpe.

    How the hell he did as well as he did under the cicrcumstances is testimony to his man management. He moulded a team together as tight knit as i’ve seen at Bradford. Imagine the season after the wembley playoffs being backed by the chairman he has now.
