That's because they all support Leeds.

By which logic, those Bulls supporters who love to see City do badly are all Leeds United supporters. How long you been a LUFC supporter Mick?

Can't fault that logic. Frequent Elland Road do you Mr. Gledhill?

And to be fair, there are actually quite a lot of White Sh*te supporters who follow the Bulls too, including at least two that I know of on this very board! Never really understood how there's so many (there'll always be a few, but it always surprises me just how many there are).

If City did move then the Valley Parade pension fund get didily squat, the move will never happen

Must be time of year for city's annual rent review. You would think their landlord would be wise to this ploy now.

To be fair some of them are wanting to get away from the ' hell hole in manningham '
flamingoland man is too greedy, they wont be able to re-negoitiate the rent which means theyu will be coming to odsal?
but would they have to pay X amount to get out valley parade?

I am actually a Bulls and LUFC fan. Can't say i care what City do. Never seen them as a rival, which i imagine is the case for most LUFC fans.

And less of that.

My own story is that i am born and bred in Leeds. Watched Leeds Utd, then got taken to Odsal (cause it was cheaper) in '94 i think and was hooked. Can't really change your team after that.

I always imagine a lot of people in West Yorkshire just support Leeds Utd as they were the biggest club in the region for decades. I remember when i used to sit at Odsal, a fair few people around me supported Man Utd. Though that seems common in areas without a big club.

TBH, I think the only reason we're named in the article is as a bargaining chip. VP is useless without a team playing there so I think there'll be a new deal over the rent

I used to be a Bradford City season ticket holder in the old Ciba stand but after the way they treated us during our first season there I reveresed the love of all things claret and amber for hatred contempt.

I couldn't care less if they went bust again for a 3rd/4th time.

Only if England get to the Four Nations final

Does make you wonder if there is something in the rumour, just been a piece on Look North about city moving. Then again it is the BBC

I just saw that mate and did I hear it right in that Bradford City will be no more if they stay at Valley Parade after next year?

Maybe if City end up moving to Odsal the Council can put us a roof over the popular side?

The council won't be putting any money into any sports team or its facilities. At least not for a few years at the very least.

council wont pay for anything at Odsal, but as I understand it we lease Odsal 365 days a year so for City to move in too we'd have to rent/sub let the ground to them and could use the rent we charge them to help fund a roof.

Cant see anything happening other than City getting a rent reduction and staying at VP. AFAIK theres a covenent on VP that says it can only be used as a sports ground, so Gibb cant sell it off as anything other than a sports facility. Without City his pension fund has a massive worthless asset so he'll come to a agreement with City.

Anyone else noice how City have gone quiet about us moving down there since the money earmarked for OSV was withdrawn?. Pretty obvious their only interest in getting us down there was to get council to use that money to buy their stadium back for them.
