I cannot understand how you could sign or get shut of players without the bloke running the team in place.

Unless that going to be Edins job!

 

"The structure we have in place has allowed us to continue preparing for the upcoming transfer window" Now where have we heard that before..............let me think

 

I have no desire to turn this into yet another Stuart thread and I agree with you about Robinson. Pretty much every other player is worse in my eyes now than when I first saw them.

Maybe Doyle? Can't think of another.

 

In the fundemould, goodlibyload

 

Financial disaster if that happens

 

Cannot see an appointment (coach or manager) being made anytime soon

 

If I could get my money back now I would, I've got more important things in my life to do than watch a bunch of German u18s and Europe's finest pub players on a Saturday afternoon

 

Wagner brought in the majority of the players that went to town that's the difference our 'Head coach' won' have that luxury.

 

Huddesfield have a very good owner, and have managed to get a very good coach. Their fans must think all their Christmases have come at once.

It's a bit unrealistic to hope ours can be on a par with Hoyle though, there a probably about 70 clubs fans who would love to be in Huddersfields position, off the field wise but you have to get very lucky.

If only Lawn and Rhodes were about 50x richer we could have been the lucky ones.

 

I just think people are getting too worked up over the owners, I don't remember this pitchfork mentallty when we were about to go to Odsal in 2011 and Lawn spouting off about taking the seats with him. Jacko as manager ,a 1 5 defeat in last game of season against Crewe, now that is real gloom. Oh and Lawn sacked McCall as well and nearly sent him to a nervous breakdown but somehow nobody got as worked up as they are now.

 

It's been mentioned a lot, but as being incompatible with serious, immediate promotion ambitions.

The owners, still, haven't clarified that promotion is secondary to the player development strategy, but we're all beginning to see that it is.

Now they just need to follow through with their long-term ambitions for the next coach as outlined today. No, I am not interested in sacking the manager if we're just outside the play offs, and to do so in the near future would illustrate a continuing, worrying lack of leadership.

 

The last couple of seasons, we've been floundering around trying to find a purpose. If we strike it lucky with the development squad, we could really improve our prospects on and off the field - but it's unlikely to bear fruit at first attempt, let alone in the first couple of years, but let's face it if we'd stumbled on a Wells last season, we'd have been a good shout to go up.

We didn't, however, and the chances of unearthing that difference-making starlet are very, very slim. We've found one or two who can play first team football at this level, but nothing incredibly special and different.

Until we find that, we have to accept that the development squad lowers the average ability of our squad, rather than raises it.

 

At this moment in time many don't see a lot of positivity coming from our club to be fair, if you are privy to things within our club that you know are going to make us a power within league one this coming season spread the word, because at present time its not looking great for many seasoned Bradford City fans.

 

Its Dick und Doof

Like i said bedore I can see 2 successive relegations coming up under thse two clowns all the progress over the last 5-10 years has gone, it feels like we have just come out of Admin again.

Proves no lessons have been learnt!!

EDIN OUT!!!

 

I agree with all this but I hope one of the lessons the owners have learned is better PR no more promises that can’t be kept

 

Willing Town on !!??
Have you forgotten about Gordon Watson and Nahki Wells ?

 

When we had members of the “Bantams family” running the club Rhodes and Lawn you spouted the same rubbish then. Well I suppose at least your consistent

 

Not true. McCall said Paul Taylor and Ryan McGowan were his signings and his signings only.

 

We will be fine pal,its time that is needed and i understand football fans want everything here and now but on this occasion with our model going forward theres going to be a lot of lows and highs.im looking forward to it i really am.theres alot of things happening,im sure the club will release this as and when they can but in the mean time try not to knock our beloved club at every oppertunity.cheers.

 

But it hasn't got them anywhere. Peterborough are mid table league one year after year.....
