It's been a pretty strange few weeks for Bradford City fans. All was well and Graham Alexander was leading their charge in League One having secured promotion from League Two.
Then Preston come calling and Alexander is gone and Michael Duff is chosen to continue the great work done by his predecessor.
Duff drew his first game in charge and is looking to get a first win of his reign today against Stevenage.
Today's visitors arrive here in great form having lost just once in their past six games in all competitions. Alex Revell's side will provide a stern test and it will be interesting times in this part of West Yorkshire in the coming weeks to see what the post-Alexander period brings!

They really have made a name for themselves as party poopers.
That is outstanding from Gbemi Arubi, he's seen Alex Bass off his line and he's got it absolutely perfect.
What a substitution that is, he's really made a difference for them in this second half.
That came out of nowhere, really!
Jay Turner-Cooke whipped in a deep free-kick that was comfortably claimed by Brad Young - but referee Ben Toner spied an off the ball incident that prompted him to point to the spot.
George Lloyd stepped up to smash the spot-kick low to Young's right and Shrewsbury lead.
Third goal of the campaign for the Salop forward, although still hard to see exactly why he was given the opportunity to score it.

It's a captain's performance so far from Alex Gilbey - he's got the goal and it's his best performance for a long time.
A goal of that quality, the way in went in just gave everyone a lift. They have something to hang on to.
Luton have started the half well, though, they're in the ascendency. The Dons don't really have an outlet at the moment.
Another opening for Shrewsbury, who are looking the more threatening side.
Kian McMahon-Brown's run earns them a corner and Sam Stubbs then finds space to meet Jay Turner-Cooke's ball into the box, but directs the header off target.
The teams remain level - and also in terms of yellow cards, with Shrewsbury's Josh Ruffels going into the book for an untidy challenge on Shaq Forde.
The good times appear to be back for Peterborough who have chalked up two wins out of two since Robbie Savage took charge during the international break.
United scored three first-half goals in a fine 3-1 away win at Leicester last weekend - one fewer than they’d managed in their eight previous league games.
The Posh are today chasing back-to-back league wins for the first time since way back in the wintry depths of February as they look to climb away from the relegation places.
Burton have made a solid start to their league campaign and sit 10th, four points better off than their opponents.
Much of that is down to their clinical edge up front, having found the net 14 times in League One this term from a total xG of 8.5. Impressive.
MK Dons make five changes from their humbling 5-1 loss to Reading last weekend.
Alex Gilbey is back in the XI to captain the side as Ibrahim Fullah and Sam Silvera make their first league start.
Elijah Campbell returns to the line-up after missing out last week alongside Jack Sanders.
Curtis Nelson doesn't make the squad but Dan Barlaser, Gethin Jones, Ben Wiles and Cohen Bramall are available from the bench.
Luton, meanwhile, keep to their line-up after their successful 4-1 over Wycombe.
The only difference to the squad is the inclusion of Callum Marshall on the bench after he missed the win on the weekend due to personal reasons.
Ready for more EFL delights?
Today features a doozy between League One leaders Plymouth Argyle and fourth placed Huddersfield Town, while an unsettled Leicester will look to avoid dropping into the bottom three against table neighbours Doncaster Rovers.
Before that, we will see if MK Dons can regain their composure against Luton Town to avoid giving Wigan Athletic the chance to lift off the bottom.
As for League Two, well, it's quite the rodeo. Bottom dwellers Crawley take on top dogs Salford, who are one of nine teams in the battle for an automatic promotion spot.
Settle in folks, the show will soon begin.
