I think the modern way is to pay until they get new jobs. There's no way he'll want to be sitting around for over 2 years.
Their forum indicates they do everything on the cheap so doubt the Cowleys will be heading that way

Stubbornness only gets you so far I guess, and that’s not the championship.

Quoted from forza ivano


might not even be that long. can't imagine bradford will stick with david hopkin for too long.perfect job for him


It's more likely Hopkin will resign. Bradford City are in a shocking state with a terrible owner so Hopkin might want to get out before much damage is done to his reputation. He did a very good job at Livingston so his stock will still be quite high.
I don't imagine they'd consider Hurst but he'd be well advised to avoid Valley Parade or do further damage to his career.

Not nice to see anyone lose their job.

But, I for one will put my hands up and say I cannot stand the bloke and I don’t think it’s something I’ve ever put on record on here.

When town got promoted, obviously it was the first success since 1997/1998. For a generation of fans (myself included) that meant we saw absolutely no success during our lifetime to that point.  The overwhelming sense of desperation to see any sort of anything other than town plummet from one division to the next was immense. OK, granted we had the 05/06 season but that’s another story of misery for another time.

The day at Wembley was one of the best days of my life. Yet even still, when cupped his ears it left an awfully bitter taste in my mouth.

How dare he ? How dare he try and take the limelight from a day that I’d waited my entire life to date for ?

Regardless of what had been said before, why couldn’t he just be happy and enjoy the moment. If nothing else - let the fans enjoy their moment. We’d waited so many years of just pure dross for this and regardless of absolutely anything, we indirectly paid his wages for 6 years of those. Why couldn’t he have just let it slide for another time ?

I’ve been called petty on numerous occasions for feeling that way and “oh yeah, but it wasn’t aimed directly at you” however that feeling will always be in my stomach about the bloke.


Sleep well Icey, Matty and Richard. Keep each other company up there xx

Never understand the amimosity directed at Paul Hurst. A friendly, pleasant & driven guy.

Good honest opinion Bradz my only gripe with Hurst was I think he thought "operation promotion" placed to much pressure on himself and the players to gain promotion. Maybe the expectation was high but we all wanted the same thing at the end of the day

Couldn't happen to a nicer fella. Just disappointed I never bumped into him in town so I could return the ear cupping

Really enjoying the 'I told you so' moment with two of my mates who are ST holders at Portman Road, just sorry the little sh!t didn't stay until they were relegated

Personally I didn't know he'd 'cupped his ears' for another 2 weeks after we'd been promoted!
