The Cowleys were at our game with MK the other night guess who Gills next 2 league games are against? could be something and nothing.

Last season Danny Cowley attended one of our home games after he left Portsmouth - randomly he was sitting in our home end with our crowd, next to my mate of all people with one of his scouts. Looked like they paid for a ticket to watch the game to be fair to them.

They spent all game taking notes on both teams. Think it was our 1-0 win over Crawley.

My mate spoke to him and he said he liked to get out and watch teams and how they setup and played etc.

So Danny Cowley - he gets about it seems!

Not sure the owners are basket cases any more.
Anyway, Lindsey won't leave Crawley at this point. He'd be daft to. Don't get me wrong. I'd love it. The City players wouldn't know what's hit them, but Lindsey strikes me as a man who's happy with life as it is.

Because you have a useless owner who’s sole ambition is not to lose money, no doubt the lowest paid CEO in the football league.
Ah but, we can't find a CEO maybe because we pay less than a job stacking shelves a Tesco's.

I'd not heard of him before so just looked him up. How did he get that job? Did he win a competition? Doesn't seem to have the CV or experience of someone you'd want running a club the size of Bradford.
He runs the club like he's won a competition that's for sure.

The thought of him makes me shudder and swallow a little sick.

Good operator and successful at lower levels no doubt but appoint him and you have sold your soul.

Hope that's just paper talk.

Wouldn't renew my season ticket if we brought in Evans. Wouldn't be happy with Robinson either. Always seemed a bit of a prick.

The Cowleys only have their teams playing one style. Have either Gill$ or Bradford got the personnel to do it? I know Bradford fans say the football is toss under Hughes but would a better manager get something out of em playing the same sort of style?

Think Karl Robinson would be a solid choice for either.

Who’s next for the sack? Gotta be him at Salford surely.
Maybe a manager who has one league victory since March!

That would be a truly disgraceful appointment

Just about every manager being linked to City. I expect a lot of this is coming from the managers' agents.
However, I do tend to be surprised by the managers City appoint.

I’m wondering if us and Bradford have the same target and their sacking of Hughes prompted us to have to do the same.

Based on absolutely nothing of course

Another Williams situation? I hope they don’t pay for the hotel room this time only for you lot to snatch him.

Another Mark Hughes type. Can't see you appointing him.

@SportBild Der englische Zweitligist Gillingham FC ist auf der Suche nach einem neuen Trainer. Der neue Mann ist Simon Rusk. Er wird in den kommenden Tagen enthüllt.

Fuck knows how a German newspaper would know about the new Gillingham manager. Is it saying Simon Rusk is getting it? Surely not.

Not sure if you're aware but when you did this before for something Hurst related and referred to him as El General I posted it on The Fishy and it's ended up being a bit of a nickname. Even saw it used by someone I know for sure isn't on The Fishy.

I think the best fitting manager about for Bradford would be Darren Ferguson.

He’s not a fantastic manager when he actually has to ‘manage’ as shown with the play off collapse, but whe he has a side with a budget he usually has his sides going up and playing a very attack based game which is what I think Bradford probably need currently.

Doubt he’s leave his beloved Peterborough job.

Steve Evans would probably guarantee promotion by next season for either club, but is it worth it :D

I wonder if McDonald has expressed an interest in the job.
