    Big Dave

    Loved him as a player but please God show mercy - we do not want this clueless guy back. The Port Vale supporters could not wait to see the back of him. Bradford have done remarkably well when they were promoted with Port Vale!

    Rather have Morrison solo than Big Dave getting involved in the gig FFS!

    I second that. Big Dave is a very nice bloke but I don’t want Albion fans turning against him when the results don’t change.

    It is being discussed that he should return to assist Mozza until the end of the season.
    I did hint at this Al 5 days ago.

    Not sure it will happen though.

    Missed that! Looks nailed on if you believe what you read. Needs somebody who commands respect and not a nice chap! Problem is who would want the job unless there?s a huge bonus for keeping the club up! Under Patel everything is on the cheap and here lies the problem.

    Nice bloke and an Albion legend as a player but really hope these are just rumours as I genuinely cannot see him being able to turn this lot around.

    I hope this is just a rumour, what has this guy ever won? A league two manager at best, we need a tough b astard not a flufffy nice bloke

    To be fair, Darren Moore in his caretaker period with us he almost avoided us being relegated when it looked certain we would be. He then got us into a playoff position the following season but was dismissed when we were fourth. Admittedly the wheels had come off somewhat but look what happened after he had gone. Subsequent to that he has two promotions under his belt, Sheffield Wednesday and Port Vale. And you have to bear in mind Wednesday were 4 - 0 down going into the second leg but they turned it around and won.

    If you actually look at the clubs Darren Moore has managed none have done particularly well once he had departed and that includes us.

    Just my opinion though.
