Very sadly I've got to agree with Bully-Boxer, there is a supporters trust in place already in Bullbuilder, there is no time to even try to set up another.

I do know what you mean though Adele, people are so desperate to try and do something constructive to save our Club and if there was even a slight chance that us as fans could do anything I'd be in there doing everything I could along with a lot of other people I know but realisticaly unless one of us wins the lottery and quick our hands are tied. Will there be someone there from the Club, will Mr Guilfoyle be there to answer any questions and has already been asked what sort of agenda is there and who is taking charge of this and leading the meeting?

Had we continued to raise funds back when all this started we would have had a good chance of at least making a good dent in the money needed, maybe even shocking everyone and raising enough to save the Bulls but 8 days left and according to the T and A the potential backers have backed out.

I've been reading about the meeting too as I knew I would not be able to make it due to monday night commitments but really other than giving desperate fans something constructive to focus on I can't see how it could help in honesty, it might be the last chance some of us have though of seeing Odsal if the worst happens and those gates finally close.

There just does not seem to be a silver lining in sight here guys and that's the most depressing and upsetting thing of all.

Yeah, one would've thought his priority would be not to attend the meeting last night cos he was removing the salary costs from the figures ready to
present them first thing today.

If there are folk out there wanting financial info with a view to purchasing the club he shouldn't have time to fart till he's provided it.

Exactly!!

Apparently multiple bids will be revealed tomorrow ........

let's hope they are high enough to keep the VAT man happy

As a Leigh fan in a potentially similar situation 6-months ago, with our White Knight gone, it all seemed like the end of the road.

6-months later we're playing better rugby than ever (except last week), in the semi's of the NR Cup this week and looking at clearing all debt's by the end of the year.

This has been done through true supporters having their input, setting up fund raising clubs to pay players contracts, non playing paid staff trimmed to an absolute minimum, players payments set at affordable figures (less than a significant number of other championship clubs), PLUS season ticket prices not subsidised (£170 per year instead of the previous £110). We now have a club that is standing on its own feet with no one person carrying the purse strings.

I know you will feel like we did, extremely angry about what is going on, but this could be the new start Bradford deserves. If it is in Championship 1, the so bit it. But with your support base, you'll fly through the divisions. The only issue then would be to get back into SL which is what we've been trying to do for 15 years which is why we and all other clubs below SL always push for Promotion and Relegation, otherwise the interest and support base slowly and surely dies away. We've gone from 4K to 1.8K average in only a few years due to there being little incentive.

I hope you will be OK and will probably retain your SL place, but perhaps it's time that not one person (White Knight) controls your club so this knid of situation won't occur again.

Good Luck for the future
