But those coming up will make it harder for those already in div 4 to climb out of it.
Agreed, having seen most of the top 7 on TV this season they would all do pretty well in league 2 now. |

Walsall expected to appoint their new manager today.
And Bradford have sacked their manager, Derek Adams.

Mike Flynn early favourite for the Bratfut job. He was apparently one of the favourites for the Walsall job so that could scupper any deal to them as no offence to Walsall but Bradford are a way bigger club with a much higher budget. |

They certainly are! Potentially Bradford are miles below where they should and could be. You have to wonder what Derek Adams is thinking now, leading Morecambe to an unlikely promotion last season, then jumping ship to become Bradford manager only to lead to failure. Just shows the grass isn't always greener, however you can understand the lure of managing a big club versus a bit of a minnow. |

Indeed, its funny how many managers have a couple of great seasons and so called "smaller clubs" then go for the big job (oo err) and fail miserably. Lou Macari at Swindon could do no wrong, then left to go to West Ham and failed badly there and also was awful at Celtic, 2 huge clubs in comparison to Swindon. Cowley worked wonders at Lincoln and failed miserably at Huddersfield and not doing great at Pompey either. Waiting for Eddie Howe to follow suit.... |

Doncaster however a different story, his shocking recruitment pre season has given new manager little to no chance of survival. |

You have got to wonder when he is going to jack it in to have dropped that far down. |

Was that on Wellens? Thought they had serious financial issues which stopped them getting Reed who was training at them for a month. |

Looking at Waki they got signed 7 on contracts and got 3 in on loan (all from same league or above) before the season started so hardly struggling to get bums on seats like we were. |
