I feel really sorry for the vast majority of Bradford fans. Thankfully the vast majority aren't morons.

Its both and others. Its not one decision, its a list of bad calls, bad timing, bad staff/player management/retention, bad financial management.

But, at the moment I could care less, neither is currently in charge and the administrator will file a report on directors descions to government (BTW, does anyone know if that report will be publically available?). Whats important now is who steps up in the next 9 days, if anyone.

The BoD, they always had the opportunity to inspect the clubs financial statements at any time, question pitch side appointment’s, and change things, however, in house squabbling and not talking each other has led to heads in the sand syndrome!!

oh and Garath Gates

No. It will not.

Thats a shame, I suspect it will be interesting reading.

there is no one person to blame.

the question is, does Bradford deserve a SL team?

Who do we have to lobby to make it public? Is it HMRC he is reporting to? Can the Data Protection act be used in 6 months time to see it?

It is a requirement of the insolvency legislation. These reports are required to enable what was the old DTI to decide if criminal or disqualification proceedings need to be considered. For that reason, the information cannot be put in the public domain.

I think the franchise system plays a larger part in the demise of Super League clubs that people recognise. It's that that demands 'super' stadia (with funds that often aren't present) and also that that forces the sale of reduced price tickets just to tick a 'member' box. Bring back P&R!

All the best for the future, in hindsight Administration was the best thing that could have happened to us, it's not necessarily all doom and gloom.

Haven't things changed since HMRC vetoed Rangers proposed route out of Administration?

As far as I can see, your troubles really began with Caisley buying success with money that wasn't there to begin with. To be fair, he wasn't the first and won't be the last to do that in sport.
