Poll for who we think will be the next head coach (not who you'd like!)

We are the Bradford "Cheap and don't rock the boat" Bulls. From the various owners appointed by the RFL, to the intergalactic search which culminated in us hiring the guy already here. More of the same I'd say.

I think Morrison will be cheap, whether or not he would rock the boat, who knows

Gone for Pryce - maybe at the end of the season. Think he's presently at Fev but with Ford suddenly going there as DoR, wonder if there has been some discussion already between the clubs?

I'd be surprised if Leon hasn't applied being his hometown club.

To be honest after Ward he'd probably be my pick of an otherwise pretty ordinary looking list.

Think Ward has made a life for himself down south so it'd need to be a good offer to get him.

Indeed I think Ward is out of our reach sadly. Only thing that could count in our favour is he applied for the Cas job so is obviously wanting to get back in the game.

He's been out of it for 2 years and even then he went early in 2021, with 2020 a write off due to covid, 2019 wss his last full season as a coach. There's only 12 SL clubs, at the moment don't think any of them are in danger of sacking their coach. Even if they did there's no guarantee he'd get that gig. Time waits for no one, jus because you're the flavour of the month now, you can quickly become yesterday's man.

Leon would be a good choice, crucially because he's had the experience of coaching a champ/L1 club before (which he did very well in) he's a Keen student of the game still, through his work in the media and assistant at Fev. His relationship with Nobby should help. We could do a lot worse.

Morrison is currently working at Bradford Grammar School as a rugby coach. The Bulls job would either need to pay more than that (if full time) or fit around that job.
Think it has been advertised as full time, not sure re pay.

I get the haunting feeling that Greenwood will get the gig.
Showing the fans what respect Nige & Co have for them
.

He'd want it part time as has said he's not giving up his job to go full time as there's not enough money whereas the jobs advertised as full time. If he gets it we've either gone really cheap and he's doing a the barest of minimums or we' be paying a decent amount?

As I said we'll go for the cheap option. Probably a part timer. Maybe Chev Walker who'll split his coaching between us and Leeds.

Whispers are an underwhelming response domestically to the vacancy and Nobby/Greenwood set to see out the season, with an extended search down under over the next few months for a winter rebuild with a proper plan for the long term, unless someone unexpected comes from left field.

Fans forum to be announced soon to update us all.

That’s what I’m hearing too. Domestically this job is seen as a poisoned chalice with targets wildly exceeding the paltry budgets on offer

We sound like we are going to limp on until the end of the season with Greenwood and Nobby. How inspiring....

Who in their right mind would work with Big Nige?.

I'm going to stick a tenner on it being Noble

Nobles not my first choice, but I would rather him then Chev.

It won't surprise me when Rohan Smith is announced.

He must be [uaching [/uto come back to finish what he started! I can picture the press conference now: [i"...dream job ... wonderful owner... underperforming giant ... untapped club potential ... etc. etc...."[/i

I mean, where is the fun managing a successful SL team when you could be experiencing the rollercoaster ride which is the Championship?

I see Keith Senior wants a head coaches job. Maybe he has thrown his hat in the ring.

He would be never off the pitch from previous encounters

You're right, that used to wind me up no end!

Alan Kilshaw.

Please god no.

Wouldn't surprise me if Nigel has voted for this 15 times "Someone else who is cheap and won't rock the boat"

What about Richard Marshall?
