Although Salford did a job on Bradford over the weekend, the Bulls record (without the points deduction), bearing in mind the turmoil they have gone through isn't that bad and Cummins has remained dignified and professional in very difficult circumstances.
Unless someone has found the pot of gold, at the end of the rainbow, it will be difficult for anyone to do things any differently.

Sacked Cummins and St. Hilaire. Is this a last throw of the dice to get a new coach and stay up, or cost cutting for the inevitable? Diskin in temp charge.

They need John Kear.
I hope he is busy

Nobby hovering in the background?

Its set up for Noble, the return of the prodigal son. Seems they are giving it one last go for survival. Think its very harsh on Cummins though given the circumstances.

Somehow we need to find two more wins. From what we have seen so far it looks very unlikely that this will happen. I still think we have got to rely on Bradford not getting their act together. On paper they have the players lets hope their new coach does not get a response out of them, but they have Hull KR on Friday which I think they will will have a very good chance in, they have Widnes at home and they still have London. It is not over yet, I just hope our players have not put the cue on the rack ( some will say they have not yet taken it off the rack !!! ) as I am sure Bradford could easily win a few games.

The Bulls, from yesterday, look like a team of players with one eye on their future. They looked dejected, low, and without direction. I can't see them doing a great deal between now and the end of the season. Sometimes a new coach can lift things, but I think it's pretty much all over for Bradford now.

Before we start writing our chances off of not getting another win.
Let's see how they go when the weather is better.
Should be looking to get points from both Hull sides, Widnes and Salford.
If we can sneak another one somewhere, all the better.

Noble to coach Bradford for nowt, don't see that happening.

Thought under the circumstances that Cummins did a decent job would think the players are thinking the worst now and just waiting for the inevitable.

A reaction from the players to someone like Noble coming in is all they can be hoping to achieve from this a la the Kear effect here.
I'm guessing he will be on more than Cummins ever was, because the Bulls might think hes number one, but so does Brian.
Until its all mathematically certain anything is possible because as much as The Butcher posts they look like a broken side, i don't see too many wins coming our way playing like we did against the leagues worst side, bad weather or not.

Noble won't do anything, he had a big budget squad that he chose himself and they won pretty much no games. Overrated IMO, can't see him doing much with Bradford.

I think that any good, strong coach could do well at Bradford. A squad that includes Gale, Gaskill, Olberson, Carney, Purtill, Manufakoso ( sp ), Addy, Kear, Foster, Diskin, etc etc should, and I fear, will improve. I suspect they will win a few games, the nightmare is that on the last day of the season Bradford will need to go to London and win and we will need to go to Cas and win in order to stay up.

Former assistant coach sacked halfway through the season by the team struggling at next to bottom of the league. A player will take charge for the next match but someone experienced may well step in to mount an unlikely march for survival.

2006 or 2014? Anyone nervous?

Depends who they get. It's a long way back for them.
But let's just win a few games ourselves and make it impossible.
