We'll have to wait and see what arrangements have been agreed with PBP, Brett Warburton and Uncle Eddie's trustees. And any idea that there isn't a chunk of borrowed money involved in all this strikes me as unduly optimistic. Does it matter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would imagine in the circle of people who buy/own footballs clubs there will be a lot of links. Most of which are coincidental. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are still some folk who think Eddie Davies was an arriviste. His first million quid was more than the rest of the board put together had invested. Some didn't seem to like it very much. Not a lot we can do other than comment though and maybe counter some of the tripe appearing in the BN for more than a decade.

On this we can agree. The speculation both positive and negative about a deal that absolutely nobody knows squat about is stupid. On the one hand, cos the guy owns a business with a co-founder of Facebook we're billionaires... on the other... The guy isn't a billionaire himself so must have borrowed all the money in a dodgy deal... I think its best to just wait and see and have hope that new owners can turn the ship round and get us at least on an even keel. I really do not care where the money comes from if they pay the bills and make good decisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bwfcfan5 Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Bradford manager has resigned....this could be a good facesaving move for Parky and the new owners all round. I suspect Parky won't fancy hanging round with new owners likely to replace him at some point - and new owners probably will not want to immediately be sacking the manager (but know time is precious) - so could work all round? Bradford in a mess so their fans would love Parky back..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post famouswanderer Posted February 25, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted February 25, 2019 He isn't a cunt though is he. Handled himself incredibly professionally throughout his time here. As a youngish lad who can remember the uefa cup but certainly did not appreciate it hes given me some of my best times watching us. Most of league one - port vale, southend, peterboro and forest last year are days ill never forget and he was the man in charge. His football is not great on the eye, especially when getting beat every week!! But if he was to go, he'd go with a massive thanks from me.

Dr Faustus Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 Either a limited vocabulary, or kind of person who screams toward the bench from the comfort of NSL... He's not a cunt, he is professional and polite. Mr Grey is either a wum, doesn't see the difference, or bases his opinion on other things. I must also stress, whichever it is, he is entitled to that opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. I was saying any scrap of information is pounced upon, on way or another. Some think we're rich now others that the new owners are just as bad as Ken. But nobody has a clue. Its best just to wait and see. I'm optimistic simply because it seems they have access to £27M....but until we know how its best to be cautiously optimistic.

bwfcfan5 Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 5 minutes ago, Mr Grey said: Lots of clubs in the Championship have wealthy owners, no guarantees of success, but success at the moment for us, is a period of stability and re-building with a new manager in charge. BurndenWays on Twitter was going on about parading the championship trophy at the end of next season, I'm hoping that was tongue & cheek. I'm also hoping it lifts the mood and bring some feel good factor back to our club, no matter what league we are in next season. As for crowds, we ain't going to get 26k anytime soon, keeping this season's ST holders would be a priority at this stage. Stability costs money though. I'm not sure our fans would be happy with a new manager bumming around league one mid table mediocrity for a few seasons whilst we break even financially. Lots of people pretend that's what they want but the reality is different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
