Hopkin has zero experience of the English lower leagues as a player, and no experience at all in England as a manager.
He's totally out of his depth. If we were some mid table side with no expectations then fine, but to come into a relegation fight with his battering ram approach was always likely to flop.
I've seen enough of his tactics, signings, interviews, man management to know this isn't going to work.

At risk of sounding like a gomper or, as Jacob Rees Mogg would put it, a ‘frightfull snowflake’, i’m not sure sacking the cunt is the right answer. The budget doesn’t lie, we do have some ‘good’ players. We just don’t have the right mix. We lack seasoned utilty cloggers quietly and efficiently doing a job so the ‘good’ players are free to do theirs. We’re have a handful of gifted players in a shitpool substandard crap with neither ability nor physical presence. At least Panzer had the latter. Edin pissed away 2mill on a few big names and plugged the gaps with shite. Its no surprise our mini revival abruptly ended when JoB fucked off. Sack Hopkin and the cycle continues. The next incumbent will ‘need a couple of windows’ and will moan the that ‘he can only work with what he has got’ etc etc and were back to square one for the 5th time 2 years. We need stability I see where you're coming from but I think we're desperate. I think a relegation could be the beginning of the end for us and I don't have confidence that HopkinS can save us. It does feel like we peaked in 2017 and the whole club seems to be on a collective downer. The trouble is these cycles can take years to play out. Who knows where we’ll end up when we ‘bottom out’. I’ve already mentally accepted relegation but, i agree, our league status could be at stake if Rupp isn’t prepared to inject further funds.

Relegation will fuck us for years. Cheap season tickets are great on the up; on the slide they’re dangerous.

Relegation will fuck us for years. Cheap season tickets are great on the up; on the slide they’re dangerous. in 1 year my family and friends has gone from 19 season tickets to zero for next season. My parents have been going for 50 years my gran for 70 years me and my siblings and most of my mates 30+ years and we've all given up. The price of 150 is a bargain but it's not worth the effort. It's a club that is a shadow of itself in terms of desire and ambition. I'm not prepared to fund a community project for poor people to have somewhere to go on a Saturday for 90 mins. I want us to try I want us to stop making excuses for failure I want us to stop being everyone's bitch. Just once I want an owner who cares about the club and isn't tight, I want a manager who can actually improve players and be consistent and entertain. I really hate this club and 90% of its fans at the moment

But I loved the two hotties at the end of our row. Totally out of place in expensive clothes and eating posh deli food. 😍😍, little nose piercing.

This cunt is massively out of his depth. He’s got fuck all out of the squad apart from a weirdly freakish December.
We need a complete reset in league two with a Paul Hurst or a Gary Bowyer in charge to rid us of the Edin stench.
Sadly with the 14 shite players plus the coaching staff who we have under contract for next season aswell as the ever increasing deficit and a disinterested owner things could get much much worse. We could easily do a Chesterfield / Leyton Orient.

Sack him or keep him there’s little chance of things changing this season, and we’ve already fucked next season because we’ll be starting off with a massive squad of overpaid shite.
If Rupp is still in charge and we drop out of the EFL he’s going to get a fucking shock. Can you imagine? “Yea sorry stefferz m8 but the clubs pretty much worth nothing now”. If he thinks this is s big defecit try non league playing at VP.
Lots of clubs bounce back sharpish. But it won’t be so simple for us. It’ll be another penny pinching recruitment drive while all the shite sits on the sidelines on 4K a week.

Season ticket revenue will be down if we stay up, it will be dreadful if we go down, still got the shit on long contracts and sponsorship will be down at least in part because Edin pissed people off. Notts County lose £35k a week and we’ll be the same or worse, the club will be worthlessness in League 2 and Stefan will only be able to give the club away. A second relegation to non league will finish the club off. For that reason alone the board need to think long and hard, is HopkinS the right man because another season as bad as this next year will kill Bradford City.

With a 2million deficit he couldn’t sell the club for a quid. The club has no assets except the players. Don’t laugh. We’re fucked.

Little to add really. The future’s looking as bleak as I can ever remember. The thing that saved us last time was the general goodwill felt towards the club. Given the club’s current standing within the city and non-gomping fan base, along with its treatment of businesses etc, I cannot see much support for another round of fundraising stunts. The thought of TOWiE’s brother bringing up a gang of ‘celebs’ to help support his brother’s monthly wage fills me with nothing but contempt. A TOWiE celeb v City Legends match? Just put the club out of its misery.

We’re going to be the next Stockport/York/Wrexham/Chesterfield aren’t we? Loads of examples, could easily happen to us. Bury our heads in the sand at our peril.

And yet so people wanted the German-Bosnian cunt because Lawn and Rhodes couldn't bankroll Championship football.
Least we won't have to worry about that ever again.
