Radio Silence

Why, I’ll ask him to give you a call. You won’t sleep tonight in anticipation, meanwhile post away.

 

I would rather they stay quiet and get the decision right rather than a running commentary

 

When there is something to say , they will say it. Being interviewed about games, is currently Kevin Mcdonald's role , which he does rather well and the players, not the owner or ceo

 

There's nothing more Ryan Sparks can add to what he said in the statement when Hughes was sacked. If we are going through an full interview process then it was always going to take a few weeks He also did an interview on Radio Leeds before the Walsall game

 

I dunno, it's great experience for McDonald.

He doesn't have to and should not answer questions about the club's next manager, but he can weigh in on his own feelings on his own future.

He's the coach, so questions about his coaching are absolutely fine. He's gonna have to get used to responding to the media no matter what.

I don't think he needs his hand holding by people who know far less about football than himself.

 

Very strange response?

 

Rupp is consistent and stays quiet - no problem with that.
Sparks can’t stop talking when things are going well but you never hear from him when the chips are down.

 

Why, who wants a running commentary on the process. Strange to some I suppose?

 

What is it you need to know, that you or we don’t know already.? Applicants , serious or otherwise perhaps?

When I/we had a recruitment process it never ever made public knowledge , Bradford City is a business and an employer, they are no different. The applications are private and could infringe employment law if made public. It’s impossible to produce timescale but Park and I gave a rough indication, which were a finger in the air, by the way. Why you ask? Isn’t it obvious? Some applicant are already employed and thus under contract.The number of applicants is an unknown, more applicants the longer it can take .Its impossible to give a timetable as a result .

There is another potential reason

Three wins on the bounce possibly?

 

Don’t worry, he’s old skool. Still thinks we can storm the home end like in the 70’s

 

They are communicating regularly with Mac as confirmed by him and that’s the only person who needs to be kept informed.Until there is anything to announce best to say nothing

 

Your choice… what does passive aggressive even mean ? Straight talking , says what one thinks , or passively says nothing .
I’m not the latter. You posted I replied with a suitable answer. What answer would one want? A honest one or b/s ?

 

Exactly.

 

Ryan can't win if he gives a running commentary with regards how the new recruitment is going some will say he doesn't need to be in the media until the club are about to make the appointment whilst others want statements on a regular basis, as @Kevin1954 says if there are applications from someone in work or in the case of Adams we have approached his club of employment he cant make such information known publicly, as a Morecambe fan who had just seen their manager bring them a massive slice of success basing it on the football clubs past history I wouldn't like to know my club were in discussions with the first manager to get them to league one, unfortunately that situation was hardly hush hush.

 

The greater point being made here, is just how poor comms is from the senior levels of the club, rather than anyone expecting a running commentary on the current recruitment process ongoing. Successful companies and sports clubs have this side of the business absolutely nailed and in an era where there's never ending thirst for information City in my opinion leave a lot to be desired in this area. I actually don't think it is fair on KM to be the voice of the club right now during another period of turmoil. Sure leave him to talk about the footballing side, but I think we have every right to understand the club's new vision for the future now Hughes has gone, and that can only come from the decision makers at the top.
