    I doubt there is many on here could have swapped 6 consecutive defeats into two wins and a draw

    Targets have been identified on previous occasions, doesn't mean they'll come to us.

    The recruitment will crack on anyway though won’t it. Turnbull will deal with all that. We’re only talking another week. Personally, if we miss out on hurst, not fussed. There isn’t a standout candidate we have been linked with.

    It goes to show the negative effect of McCall and his approach , when two rookies can come in an achieve such a transformation with simple changes to the formation and the odd tweak to personnel. Novak has given us a goal threat we were missing.

    They were clearly fed up of him, and going on the field expecting to lose. Lift that negative vibe and we see the dramatic turnaround.

    I do think we need a name be it Hurst or Adams.

    Over the years we have names like Taylor, Grayson, Hopkin Bowyer McCall. It’s not a name we want it’s ability

    Yes. Fordy would be fantastic (or that's what he'd tell us anyway!)

    It's not abilty, it's support that the managers need.

    It's like the CEO want to pass the book of responsibility. Get a manager in and good luck to them. Just let them get on with it and hope for the best.

    Until Bradford City get into 2020 of football world we will always struggle.

    Obviously! Don’t read it so literally. We need experience not 3 game experience.

    A standout candidate?

    We're in the arse end of the bottom division in professional football. Can you name a realistic standout candidate that we all can't pull apart if we wanted to?

    One was 32 years ago, the other 21 years ago. In football terms thats not even the 'modern" game.

    Is he though?

    He wants a manager. 2020 mainly it's Head Coaches.

    Bradford City are so far the 8 ball that I am not shocked we are now a lower div 2 side.

    Our only hope is if we get brought out! Seriously it is!
