AMID the pressures of managing a club for the first time, it is gratifying to know that Kevin McDonald has not lost his sense of humour.
Asked about Bradford City’s squad news ahead of their second trip down the M1 this week, the Bantams caretaker-manager provided a positive report, while quipping that being able to drop himself would also be a bonus. McDonald was speaking amid the context of City’s 4-1 midweek reverse at MK Dons, when the midfielder donned his boots for the first time in the league during his interim stint in charge. That was mainly due to the unavailability of Richie Smallwood due to suspension.
'Jamie has obviously done well and they will come back into the picture and it will be good to get them back into the team as they have been part of what has been successful. 'I am not saying they have been a catalyst to it, but they have been a big part to it, it’s been plain to see.' Tuesday’s heavy defeat in Buckinghamshire did at least have one silver lining in the shape of the return of Harry Chapman, who came off the bench late on.
