Like The Damned United (set next door in Leeds), with Tooves as the RL equivalent of Brian Clough - but with a happier ending. Or Tooves 'Moneyballing' it, like Billy Beane.
Congrats to Toov's on his appointment
With Toov's and Lowe to be successful and lead Broadford back to the top
Maybe Toov's could still get a gig on 360 as there UK Corespondent

Toovey was appointed coach of Bradford because because he is 'a football man and players' coach'.
Sounds like just the sort of coach manly could do with
Reformed UK rugby league club Bradford Bulls made the bold signing of new coach Geoff Toovey to revive the reformed club because he is 'a football man and players' coach'.
The 47-year-old was sacked by Manly at the end of 2015 despite taking the club to the finals in three seasons out of four.
Toovey replaces fellow Australian Rohan Smith and will have his work cut out for him at the newly relegated club who will start in the second division with a 12 point deduction.
However, new club owners, former Manly coach Graham Lowe and Andrew Chalmers believe Toovey is the man who can rebuild the club to its glory days.
"He won't be bringing loads of people from Australia," Lowe said. "He wants to work with people here and the community.
"I am so pleased we have reached terms with him. He is a football man and is a players' coach.
"He will make young players thrive. He is uncompromising and has always had the leadership skills required."
Despite a lack of experience in the English game, Toovey's signing is a major move for the club that was beset with financial issues.
The qualified accountant will work with Leon Pryce who confirmed who is the first player confirmed to play for the club in 2017.

It's Bradford right so if you want to compare it to a Leeds era, it will be O'Leary and the spend big, go OK, end up bankrupt period which sure it ****ed Leeds up but was damn entertaining - just google Viduka v Liverpool

I will miss seeing the little fellas angry face around Narrabeen. Last time I saw him he was driving behind me and I took a parking spot at Woollies he had his eyes on. When I got out I looked around and he was staring daggers at me.
I'm sure he'll enjoy the change of pace and serene lifestyle Bradford offers as opposed to the hectic pace of the Narrabeen and it's Woollies car park at 6pm on a Wednesday...

All I'm hearing are excuses.
I think a game of thrones style walk of atonement is required here.

Look - Maybe if he'd won in 2013 I do it. But I'm not walking an extra 100 metres for a runner up
