I have to say I'm really excited about this signing. I do think this is going to make Bradford a more formidable team this season

Quality, quality, quality, quality.

In case you haven't noticed I think this signing is quality!

You make the mistake of thinking the world, or at least the board, revolves around you, and are paranoid that every comment is aimed at you. It doesn't, and they're not.

There are several detractors who have made several, quite different, claims against the Bulls and one of those claims was that we are a 'selling club' and not any longer 'in the market' for decent players. Another is that we would not and could not make any 'marquee' signings and indeed that the club and/or the coach had lied about the possibility of doing so. Another is that we have little or no cover in the halves and no ability or intention of getting any. Another is that no 'decent' players would come anyway to play under a 'crap coach'. Another is that we have a 'weak squad' which is no better than mid-to-worse-table.

These represent a considerable humble pie requirement, indeed easily sufficient to qualify for a substantial bulk discount.

We don't have to see "how it pans out first" at all. Whether Bird does the business on the field if and when he gets here is a completely different issue. All the above have been comprehensively demolished by the Bulls' signings so far.

I should TBF add, though, that in your case you did consume your portion of pie very daintily and without prompting. But there's plenty left. Wonder if rhinoms is feeling hungry . . .

I wonder if McNamara has a sneaky peak on here today.. I bet he does!

in the same way is buderus here because he wants to be or because he wants to op up his pension fund whilst on the sick

think its more a case of us waiting for the right player to become available in a position we needed- which is what the club always said they were doing only the doom mongers chose not to believe them

whilst I still have misgivings about the signing for his off field issues, the fact his GF ( the victim) is standing by him says a lot.
Cant believe club would make the annnouncement without eing pretty certain he'll get a visa. Some definite news about a potential arrival date would be good.

absolute top class player and really lifts us to the next level

I believe Deacon would be better suited than Jefferies to partner Bird. It certainly raises the potential of the Bulls in 2009. Will he have Visa issues?

T&A says he should be here by the end of the month. Fingers crossed.

I want Chesley B Sullenberger III to fly him in, just to be on the safe side.
