I'm glad he's resigned. He could have walked as a Bradford legend or hung on to see himself become a villain. He chose the former. Good luck to Jimmy, whatever he does.

His coaching career has been a bit sporadic. Wire was hit & miss, Carnegie seems to have gone very well, then results last season were fine until the MPG, but there were questions over squad size & use last season & again this season. Squad use is purely Jimmy's responsibility but squad size and recruitment seems to have been Ferres' purview. So blame can be shared there.



But he is a true Bulls legend, never any question over his desire for the Bulls to get back to SL. Worked hard, but possibly communication let him down. I wish him well and his legacy is intact.

Mick's says Jose Mourinho is a shoe in.

He only takes jobs that offer the promise of about £150 million quid to spend. We ain't got a pot to pi$$ in.

I feel that perhaps he was given the choice of stepping down or getting stepped on.

He's smart enough to know when to walk away, I just hope the next man is chosen for his capability not sentimentality

I'd like to wish him well for the future - he's a Bulls' legend, after all. Many top players don't make it as coaches, so there is no great shock, or shame, in it.



I wonder how long the club has known? Clearly they must have been involved in coming to an agreement to terminate his deal, so I'd guess for at least a week. I wonder if any moves have been made?



Not sure where we go from here, Morro, if available, I'd take in a breath, otherwise, I guess it's waiting and seeing.

Jimmy you are still a club legend in my eyes and always will be, i wish you and your family the very best in the future and hope you have every success in the years to come.

I am sure you will always be welcome at Odsal

I think that if the performance from the Dewsbury game can be replicated on Sunday, then there's no need to rush to appoint someone as we may be in safe hands with Diskin.

But as the club have let him take the Batley job then we do, realistically need a long term replacement.



Trouble is, who will we get, as a lot of coaches that might inspire confidence are locked into other deals

At the end of the day, Disko was a player only a very short time back and, good as we were at Dewsbury, he's still very inexperienced as a coach. I'm far from sure we should be thinking about a 'first time' coach - we are a bigger club than that, imo. I think Glen Morrison has proved himself, though I'm not sure about his availability and I guess Dews would try pretty hard to keep him anyway.



I guess were in for an interesting time - let's hope we're not disappointed at the end of it!

What's Brian Smith up to these days?

I can't be the only one thinking...We don't need to be looking backwards at previous coaches and players to move this team forward.

Francis Cummins will be in charge next week
