    I agree that he is way out of his depth but who knows what Edin will do next. I am bored by Collins' cliche phrases and the whole team spirit togetherness act is very transparent. It was obviously a target of Edin's but Collins is forcing it and based on today's effort levels, it clearly hasn't worked on the players. Huddle all you like, but if it's forced it means nothing.

    Poor pre season and a poor start to the season totally out of his depth, don’t blame him but he should never have been given the job in he first place, hope I am proven wrong.

    Not for me.

    We need someone who's proven, at least to some extent.

    He has no business even asking if he wants sugar in his coffee.

    Edin out.

    Said in the interview, the game was lost in the first half. Obviously didn't back himself to motivate the players at half time then! Only a few games in, but not looking good.

    It won’t hsppen yet as it’s an admission that Edin has made a mistake.
    If city continue to lose then he won’t have a choice. But I would expect him to appoint another similar type coach.
    The question is are the board prepared to get relegated following their mantra?
    They’ve said 11th is acceptable previously.
    Do they # believe enough to risk going down.
    Tuesday will be very interesting.

    That’s a ridiculous thing to say. It was goal less at half time!

    Don't worry guys/gals @south york bantam will soon be back posting to lift the gloom, and I'm sure @Norman Corner@Norman Corner will soon be giving us all his wisdom of Edin's way forward and how it's early days yada yada yada.

    I don't think there would be a shortage of managers willing to come to league 1. Whether they'd be prepared to come to city though, that's a different matter.

    Some on here will never believe that, but it's not the first time I've heard that comment, and to be honest I couldn't believe it when I was originally told, but you have to wonder with regards recent formations/performances and ultimately results.

    yet one of the most experienced managers in the league is sat rock bottom on 0 points.

    That's what I thought. I want to give this guy a chance, maybe it's inexperience in an interview situation, but if he saw the game was being "lost" at 0-0, what was he doing about it? He's gonna get ripped to pieces unless we get a performance in the next 2 games.

    spill the beans bronco, who did you hear that from? someone in the inner workings of the changing room on match-day or from someone who heard it from someone else?

    And its a matter we had a clear answer to over the summer.

    Edin had half a season's grace last year thanks to McCall's success.

    When it fell apart, he packed his silly little practices away (partially) and brought in someone who understands how to manage a club - but Grayson couldn't halt our downward spiral.

    This season, that period of grace has lasted four games - and I doubt any good manager will rescue us from Edin's mess.

    This club will be ruined by this guy.

    Let's get him out before we're trying to regain our League One status (or worse).

    Stefan, pull the plug please.

    This era is over.

    Too late now, but I'd have had Steve Evans.

    As it stands now, John Coleman.

    Edin so can't afford this club that he wouldn't even pay a club compo for a manager mate.

    Your so bias in your outlook in anything Bradford City at the moment it wouldn't make any difference, you keep doffing your flat cap when you see Edin walk by.
    Possibly the same person as @Tawheed@Tawheed got it from.
