    I'm interested to hear what you think is needed at Bradford City right now, in a nutshell. Not reams and reams of meandering content, because people will end up agreeing with some bits and not others - but as concisely as you can, what do we need?

    Genuinely curious, given how split opinions are at the moment.

    Sack it off, close it down, go pop, start again. Nothing to fear.

    Rupp and Rahic out and Jack Tordoff to leave his city an amazing living legacy and get Baldwin, Mason and McCall back to finish off what they started.

    Rahic out would be a start. Money to buy a quality players in January. A sports psychologist to be hired immediately.

    Essential key personnel engaged immediately, and the overall rebuilding of the playing squad starting at the earliest opportunity. Edin could start this off now by stepping down, and selling his shares.

    Edin Rahic sacked, drummed out of town. The club back in the hands of people that know, care, love the club & its important to the wider area. Until then we are screwed.

    Bradford’s equivalent of Dean Hoyle would be a successful drug dealer and his entourage of hangers on. Your options for wealthy based Bradford backers is nigh on feck all.

    What's needed:

    The removal of Rahic. The introduction of a C.O.O. with appropriate credentials and experience and with empowerment to establish a viable structure within the club. Financial investment to improve our scouting and recruitment. And more financial support from fans by way of a moderate price increase in tickets.

    That last point may be contentious and timing is a factor. Bit I've beaten the drum long and hard about needing a club owner who'll put a few quid in. We need to do the same. The cost of competing is only going up. We need to be willing to put more in of we want to be successful.
