Fake Sheiks blown out of the water with CITY bid , wow.
Costs saving must be the driver and that means .................. 1 ground surely ???

Mark Lawn and Julian Rhodes have said numerous times they haven't got any money left?!
So what I want to know were is this money coming from?!
Unless they've got a buyer for City?!

Like I say you never know relations might improve with the two clubs if this was too happen.

The devil will be in the detail. Key questions will include:

1 - Does this mean finally it is exit Odsal stage left and to VP permanently? With the RFL selling the lease back to the council for redevelopment? Seems a bit inconceivable that BCFC would buy the club and noit move it to VP?

2 - Is it just Bradford City, or are others such as Mr Parkin involved? That was all mooted before, with this provoiding a means of freeing up the Odsal site for redevelopment. Is this where the money is coming from?

3 - Who will they put in to run the club? Might we see Caisley, Noble etc. al in after all? Are they involved in this?

I wrote a bit of fictional speculation on here several weeks ago. I wonder how close, or otherwise, that will turn out?

The scant details so far suggest the club and its SL status can be saved. On the face of it, that sounds like excellent news. Lets now see more about what is involved, so we can better assess the implications.

shocking grammer

Really?

If that's all you've got to moan about I'd say that's pretty good.

Grammar.

Didn't say he was Adey.

would this mean the RFL will lose the Iconic ground...lol

** checks date on calendar **

No, its not April 1st

Just when you thought it couldn't get any more bizarre eh?

Isn't this the same Bradford City that almost went into Administration themselves at the end of last season? And actually have been in Administration more than once in recent years? It does beg the question of where the money is coming from - suggesting some form of fresh investment (Parkin?) or a quick sell-on to a third party (Caisley?)

It would seem unthinkable for City to pump £3million into the Bulls and then have the ongoing costs associated with Odsal. So one must surely assume they are thinking of a single stadium - and presumably that would mean Valley Parade (which, personally. I don't mind)

We await more information with bated breath

got ya

anyway , hope all works well and you survive as a club and HMRC gets most of the country's cash back instead of it being wasted etc

I guess like must Bulls fans VP isn't my favourite ground - but as a price to be paid for continuing to exist - I can live with it.

Certainly from a pure economic basis there is some sense in effectively doubling the use of an expensive asset even if some Bulls fans choose not to make the journey to VP.

Just wonder where the money is coming from as City themselves seem to live on a hand to mouth basis and have been flirting with relegation?

Still as the pc version of the saying goes if you are a financially compromised your options are restricted and if some deal isn't stuck quickly the players and staff will all be gone.

Something not right here.

BCFC look like interim bidders and a front for someone else.

I just wonder who it could be?

Are there many solicitors around who also represent
players in the game?

Just wondered like.
