    They're not though.

    It's not as if he is 1-10 on.

    I wouldn't bet on next manager odds but you do if you think it's a cert.

    Warn you though bookies don't have a clue in this market. They're just reactive.

    I'll answer for you if you don't mind!

    It's because Bowyer just highlights sh@t. Not saying it disrespectfully. Blackpool situation sh@t , he can handle sh@t so let's appoint him.

    So hiring Bowyer is because Bradford City is in the sh@t and I don't mean on the pitch I mean off it. It's like Bradford City like Blackpool has no vision because it's in the Sh@t. People like @Park bantam@Park bantam might love handing Sh@t but I would like to believe we can be more inspiring and driven.

    So Bowyer comes it's because Rupp is in the sh@t, Bradford City are in the Sh@t and the club is going through Sh@t and might be sold but Bowyer will be able handle the Sh@t that brings.

    That ok for you mate? Or is it just Sh&t?

    I stick to the horses for my bets Fordy.

    Regarding Bowyer, Im sure we will find out soon. I reckon a new manager will be named beginning of next week.

    You cannot get away from the facts that he did a very good job at Blackpool.

    Promotion in his first season, top 10 finish in his 2nd season in league 1.

    Absolutely brilliant again. Completely agree.

    Uninspiring
    Employed purely as a fire fighter
    Just bang average
    Lack of ambition
    Meh!!!!!!

    I've felt like that since Stuart got the boot, I'd hoped Phil Parkinson would leave that basket case of a club and come home :(.

    True but it's like watching the new Paddy Power Advert with Giggs. It's just reminds you of the Sh@t that went down.

    Hiring Bowyer is a mass warning to fans. Admin, takeover- all possible!

    True but that wasn't difficult.

    Look, for me it's uninspiring but if he is appointed then fine. I will back him.

    Whoever, is manager will get my support until the end of the season.

    Bowyer just reminds me of dark times and I don't want that thought.

    You do realise the ONLY reason bookies exist is to take money from suckers. They make up any odds they like to sucker fools into parting with their money. I have £10 on Parky :innocent:

    Promotion back to league 1 at the first attempt not difficult?. Try telling that to Stuart McCall.

    Out of interest, who do you fancy as our next manager, and why?

    Please tell us how you know that football under Gary Bowyer will remind you of "dark times" they can't be any darker than they've been since Stuart got the sack, 14 months of crap give or take a handful of matches.
    You knock Bowyer yet you say we should take a chance on others who have no football managerial experience.
    "The reasons above is why I would seriously consider a Stephen Warnock, a Gary Jones. A Fowler, A Kewell e.g. An ex player because the board need telling."

    I've explained!

    He isn't linked to any other managers jobs but linked to us because the club has be run badly and clearly in a sh@t situation.

    That is the only reason he is up there in the betting.

    Not saying he shouldn't get the job. Just highlights the mess the club is in that's all.

    His previous club he got promoted back to league one and it was because he could not get any guarantees with regard player budget that he walked, I see a resemblance here?.

    It's about time we started thinking about a manager that can stabilise the club with a view to promoting us from league 2. Give him time to have a go with this shower of shi but build for the future. We're as good as down but we need a plan to either survive in this league or be prepared if we dont. I like Bowyer but if there's a better candidate fair enough.

    Bowyer certainly ticking some boxes. Not least the manager must provide ample opportunities for Fordy to question his every move box. I'm hoping we employ Fordy's first choice as manager it might keep him quiet for a bit.
