    A source that can do the working out. Seriously this really isn’t hard:

    Sparks wanted us to be like Morecambe. Comment made in the fans forum.

    Sparks talks often about you don’t have to spend loads of money to make it. Morecambe have the lowest budget so Sparks will be creaming himself at what Adams has achieved.

    Sparks hasn’t mentioned Adams or Morecambe since the forum.

    Adams hasn’t denied he’s leaving neither have Morecambe.

    People like Wellens have joined other clubs.

    It’s Adams! 100%

    Barrow set to announce anti-football manager Mark Cooper.

    Apart from perhaps Kenny Jackett, wouldn't have wanted any of the others

    Following the departure of Trueman & Sellars, Bradford City made the following announcement in respect of the appointment of a replacement manager, “the club confirms that it is at an advanced stage in the process of completing an appointment and hopes to make an announcement by the end of the month”.
    Well that could have been said which is a neutral and open ended comment. No commitment one way or the other.
    A further comment could have been, “City intends to seek a manger who can galvanise the current players and to attract an exciting group of new signings, to present an attractive attacking side, which is seeking to push hard for promotion”.
    Again a neutral comment, but with a statement of intent.
    Now if the club are looking for a media advisor, they can always PM me. ;)

    Explain what Sparks has done to be UNFAIR to Morecambe?

    Sparks has fuelled the speculation how? You keep making statements with Zero evidence.

    That wouldn’t have worked as Bradford City fans would have become restless with no news of the new manager.

    I agree, had the signals not been so strong that Adams was incoming, there would have been far more toys getting thrown out the pram when names like Wellens and Jackett were getting snapped up one by one.

    I do see the situation as somewhat unfair on Morecambe, but it's also of their own creating. They had more say on this matter than us initially, what with actually being Adams' employer.

    Barrow caretaker manager Rob Kelly has agreed to join an EFL club after compensation agreed

    Ex Leicester manager Kelly was assistant to Uwe Rosler at a few clubs including Leeds. Rosler has just left Fortuna Dusseldorf Germany

    Are the pair Valley Parade bound?

    Rosler was linked to us before. Probably due to the fact that’s he’s German and has a Leeds connection.

    Cant see it happening myself. Sparks wants fan connection, and I don’t think bringing in a German former Leeds person is going to do that.

    I still fancy a German boss. The guy that did well at Barnsley would be my choice, but yes Rosler didn’t do too bad in England.

    That would be a great "ed-line".
