Mate im an 18 year old fan who thinks this is what should happen - im not steves agent, you probably just not used to people being able to write a couple of sentences, and in reply to the other comment no it doesnt make you a so called fan, this is my opinion and i think there are a lot of naive fans who need to see the bigger picture, i very much doubt we will get a world class replacement so what is the point

Never liked Kevin Costner, or any other Robbing Hood!!!!:



get your point Adey. what is interesting would be to see how many out of work coaches there are who would bring more to the table. unemployed and looking for work means we hold the most bargaining chips. In post and wanted by England gives steve the upperhand.

is there a nrl equivalent of the LMA website, which lists all out of work managers looking for a job in football?

“At last, a real, Tory budget,” Daily Mail 24/9/22 "It may be that the honourable gentleman doesn't like mixing with his own side … but we on this side have a more convivial, fraternal spirit."

Quote: Blotto "Well TT it's very easy to blame the Coach all the time when things are not right, but on the field the Players have to take some of the blame when things do go wrong. even Langers admitted some of the problems on field were down to the players.
I hope that Macca does stay and see through a legacy he has started (with the help of others) with the Bulls and see them compete at the top level again consistently.
Nobby coming back and saving the Bulls is pure pie in the sky blinkered thinking.
He should have done better at Pieland but considering the Pantomime politics of Uncle Mo and DW then being lumbered with Lenighan who didn't like his style he did well enough to make it easier for McGuire to take them on.
At Crusaders he has accepted a real challenge of bringing them on and he is doing a great job for them and being appreciated for it. He won't be coming back to the Bulls sometime soon.
The England job is just a useful bluff for Macca in getting a decent new contract off Peter Hood and I don't blame him. He's had 4 yrs of being put through the wringer along with the supporters, so I think we all deserve an upturn in good fortune!'"


I hope you aren't suggesting that I have ever proposed sacking Macca &/or bringing back Noble. The first I don't think I have ever done (though I have taken the pi ss regularly), the second I have definitely never done. I will repeat what I have said many times, I first met Macca as a young player (1992 tour), along with Darryl Powell he stood out from the rest as someone genuinley interested & concerned for the fans; I thought then he would make a good coach, I still do. To date he has done little to show he is much more than that.
Regarding players taking some blame, I put that one with the 'it's the sign of a good team when you still win but played badly' statement in the dustbin. Consistent poor/under performing is down to the coach.

Quote: Adeybull "Or, if you prefer a half-full glass as opposed to a half-empty one'"


Hooray to all of that Adey.

We are no longer the Mr. Moneybags of the Caisley/Noble era; what we are is solvent and living within our means(which is more than a few clubs can say) and you're right, more people are beginning to realise it, so Ill give an extra 'hooray' for that.

As someone who has stood behind the coach all along, I don't know whether he is a "brilliant" coach either (neither am I qualified to judge, btw icon_cool.gif but I do know he's pulling the club round from the abyss, and having spoken to him, I believe him to be a genuine and sincere bloke who is busting a gut on the club's behalf. He is also a guy who deserves our support.

I, for one, hope Steve stays at the club. Maybe there are others who could take the club forward, there probably are, I really don't know, but we seem to be on the right track and I think that Steve would be the best person to finish the job he's started.

When you're a Bradford fan there's always a light at the end of the tunnel. Unfortunately it's usually an oncoming train:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_7741.jpg



For me, it's a head and heart issue with McNamara

My head says that Macca has done a good job in what has been a hard period for the club in terms of the financial situation. I understand that the club are rebuilding and this is not an over night job.

But my heart says the club should still be challenging for honours and that Macca should go based on the amount of poor performances that the team have produced under his leadership.
