Meeting was meant to be this morning.

What a surprise.

I don't expect anything major this afternoon now.

If it's the return of Green then I'll be amazed after all that's gone on.

Looking at Nige, I think every time of the day clashes with a feeding time.

Quote: HamsterChops "

If Green does get it back, I'm going to be essentially in a catatonic state from now on. I'll still attend, I'll still have a pint, I'll still buy the shirts. But all the while I'll struggle to get excited over any games and I'll be on cruise control just waiting for the next administration.'"

Well at least the players [iSHOULD[/i be the first to find out rather than by social media this time.

Assuming the meeting is to actually give them any info. It could just be a "things are progressing, we're still doing due dilligence, you're not going to be paid any time soon so stop asking me, happy new year!".

If green does somehow retake control, despite not passing fit and proper, I imagine a lot of he rumoured players leaving will continue as I can't imagine the players being happy with him in charge again after this

Quote: ridlerbull "Weirdly, I'm going to be uncomfortable with anything other than liquidation. I just can't deal with going through this over and over again, and any hopes that I had for a new owner with any actual money are pretty much gone. '"


I feel the same to be honest

I'm not getting my hopes up that someone with real money to put into the club will buy us. And I just can't get excited about the whole 'so long as we have a club, I'll be happy' line that a lot of posters are saying. Going into another season in the Championship with no real hope of promotion, and just waiting for the next Administration, doesn't exactly thrill.

I have just about resigned myself to Liquidation, if the club did start again with another owner, who in their right mind would want to play for a club with our track record of Administration's

I'm that pedantic, I haven't shopped at Morribob's since he screwed the Tesco deal for us. Especially after reading that he was looking forward to watching his 'beloved Bulls' in his retirement...but that's a whole other thread many moons ago...

Don't think i'm biased... ...i'm just very narrow minded!!!!!!!:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_28029.jpg



I'm done if its liquidation. I have no appetite to support any other club. And before you say it would still be Bradford, yes it would in name only.

The club I've supported all my life is the current club. A mess it may be but that is what I'm emotionally attached to, not a phoenix club.

So i'm in the camp that says anything is better than liquidation.

But the current club is itself a phoenix club - brought into existence in 1964

I'm too young (just) to remember that, but it doesn't alter the fact. So a 'new' Bradford club wouldn't be the first time.

To be fair, since we moved house to Leeds (sorry!) last year, we've shopped mostly at Sainsbury's - must admit it feels better to not be bolstering Ken's retirement fund

Perhaps so, but all of us below the age of 52 (and most just above it) won't remember the previous entity anyway, so the club we've supported all our lives is the current one. The fact the current one is a phoenix club is irrelevant really, it's just like saying we have no emotional attachment to the pre-1964 Bradford Northern too.

I can understand both sides of the Phoenix club support debate tbh. I'm not sure how I'll feel until (if) it happens, but I can't see me feeling the same about a new club as I do about this one, even if the name and the stadium are the same.
