have you got any proof in this? didnt big joe say in one of his collums that the boss came out and was laying in to them for being crap the other week that doesnt sound like being to pally.

Its one thing being pally and another is to know when to be pally, you cant just be a total nob to your players 24/7. you cannot class a day golfing or a day on Bridlington beach being to pally

I think Jon Sharp could do a good job for Bradford - can't see it happening though. If McNamara is leaving I think the club will try to appoint an Australian as his successor, perhaps someone who is currently an assistant in the NRL.

If the club are sticking with McNamara then they seriously need to do something to show they have a plan or at least some ambition. It's all very well saying "We've signed all these juniors" we NEED something to say "we can still be a force".

I think the best option is a Director of Rugby role being employed at the club.






When you're a Bradford fan there's always a light at the end of the tunnel.

Unfortunately it's usually an oncoming train

Yeah. Let's show our appreciation for another dismal performance and send out all the wrong signals.

Super idea. :?

The bit that surprises me is that you are actually debating the useless prick!!

i'm glad the Bulls are visiting Headingley next, the Bulls are just the right side to play Leeds back into form!! :lol: :lol:

Folkes seems to be suffering some foolish performances this year. I'm not convinced by him. They've lost some decent players and results have suffered. Quite similar to the Bulls really.


exactly imagine if we were in the same position as the dogs are with folkes in charge. imagine what some of the burkes on here would be saying.

IMO its the players, i know there maccas signings but lets just wait until what signings are made. we have made 2 good signing so far and one of them is a massive coup in menzies. if they turn out to be total gash signings then i would gladly joing the macca out band wagon.


well said :CLAP:

Well they would not be screaming for McNamara to be sacked for starters. :wink:

Bradford should go for Brian Mc Dermott

I am just letting you know what I have heard is happening the moral or professional aspects are not being discussed.
Lam will be the main coach 2019 and Edwards will work along side but not in public view until 2020 maybe we will end up following the Leeds Rhinos director of rugby style.

And Mr Lebron James replied with !!!!!! :DRUMMER:

Or not. I would be amazed if any one of these know-alls bothered to actually travel to the Smoke to support the team.
