    There is only one thing that will get our club pulling together IMO, and that is a strong manager, even though we as fans will have our own candidates as you say our next appointment is possibley the most crucial we have ever made.

    Bowyer was at the club yesterday. Fowler and Carbone applied.

    Bearing in mind the happenings over the years between BCFC and Evans I just can’t imagine Rhodes making him manager

    Newport's prospects are probably better than ours.

    Debt is manageable if you have someone willing to underwrite it. We have no idea what Rupps personal feelings are regarding this but he’s now realising this football ownership lark can quite quickly snowball into a bottomless pit. Do we really think he’s gonna keep bankrolling a loss making business?

    I agree.

    We have this obsession with ex players and managers where we only put their names forward for every job going.

    There is a lot out there. I hope the owners and Rhodes are working overtime to get someone in this week. I do not want Drury in charge this Saturday

    The financial criminal that is Steve Evans.

    Absolutely zero chance, but expect people to mention him every other post anyway.

    We need to sell tickets for next season, not turn off yet more fans.

    Drury is a complete Bell End - Met him once extremely arrogant - can’t do with the prick.
    Surprised Hopkin didn’t get rid TBH.

    With him at the helm we are finished.

    PP or Stuart? or do we go with Blake, Lawrence etc?

    If it was up to me i'd get McCall back, 3rd time lucky and all that. We need a manager who plays good attacking football which Stuart did. Not knocking PP but his football was mainly hoof, and that type of play will not work with the players we have.

    50 applicants is says this morning. It’s clear we are a club managers want to be in charge of.

    Dolan has also stated he will help out if he is needed in any way.

    No appointment before Portsmouth game, shortlist time. I hope Drury is only in charge for one game

    I'd rather have Bantam Pete than Steve Evans.

    Hopefully the club are aware that the current state of the Steve Evans poll on here shows 72% against. With many season tickets still unbought that's a significant statistic.

    And it has no bearing on him being successful a second time round. Its like the clamour on social media to bring in the likes of Gary Jones or Jamie Lawrence in some capacity when a manager gets the sack. “ Give em a kick up the backside, they won’t stand no messing”. Yeah right cos thats guaranteed to work. There is no reason to bring Parkinson back, he’s done his stint and had success. Lets find the next Phil Parkinson and build the next new era. Honestly, some of our fans are obsessed with looking back.

    Is having morals a major part of being Bradford City fan.
    I'd prefer someone else as I've said Gary Bowyer, but if Stefan offered Evans the job Id still back him as manager of our club, still purchase our season ticket, but I don't have to like it.

    Drury has named Caddis as captain.

    To be fair, Drury was probably in hair and make-up getting ready for his first press conference.
