    On the morning of the announcement, my first thought when I saw that photo was that some comedian had hacked the club's official twitter account. I'm still wondering if that's what actually happened and because Rahic was so desperate by that stage, he decided to go with it.

    Of all the options mentioned, Bowyer or Hurst look the best fits.

    I wouldn't want Evans as manager solely for the reason that he isn't very good. I couldn't care less about his behaviour if he came here and kept us up though.

    Most of those who would refuse to watch us under Evans were happy to watch us under Rahic. The same Rahic who was a bully, a control freak and ended up destroying us.

    Not nasty old Evans though, I'm far too principled for that.

    Depending on our options for me.

    If it’s him or Drury or a Blake id go Evans all day.

    If he’s up against Bowyer and Hurst then Its a no.

    Let’s be realistic

    Totally agree. With our current position, his track record and realistic availability out there for us I could think of a lot worse than Evans.

    His past bares no significance to me when I consider the future of Bradford City football club, which is all I am interested in. I think Evans is one of the better equipped managers out there, who is available, who might be able to perform miracles and get us out of this mess. He knows this division, the oppositions, our squad and in the past proved he knows how to win football matches.

    I’m surprised by just how many say no.

    Yes, but the manager is supposed to set an example, not be an uncouth bully.
    I cannot for one minute imagine Rhodes even considering him. Rhodes likes us to be known as a close knit family club, appointing him would bring about even more divisions between fans and the club.

    Straw poll with family and work colleagues, who are all intending renewing ST's, no matter which league we are in next season, have all said they will not attend under him

    It's funny how some of the fans are campaigning for Evans as he would "be able to rescue us and give
    the players the kick up the backside they need" but what about the players?

    Who says the players would want to play for him? If he was appointed they may perform to a new
    level of "don't care" which would cement our relegation and send the club into total disarray.

    I still don't get why it's Drury and not McElhone in charge on Saturday

    He took over Shrewsbury with them bottom of the league and managed to save them from relegation, He previously won promotion as manager of Grimsby taking them back in to league 2, He has a win percentage in all games of 49% much higher than the rest of the candidates who average around 36%

    Its a no for me. He was hated whenever he came to Valley Parade so i would not welcome him as our manager. Are we that desperate that we forget what he is like? What next, Warnock?
