    Hi there is another fans media meeting scheduled for 20/1/2020, to be held in the Keighley area. This has been arranged by WOAP @Jason McKeown@Jason McKeown

    It is an opportunity to meet with other City fans and a club representative, to discuss developments at City. Anyone interested in attending, PM me and I will send further details.

    As in the past, it may well be a good idea if BT members, who wish to raise issues, prepare a list below, perhaps with some detail. It would assist those present, to have a good understanding of City related points, from this forums perspective. Anyone going from BT should be prepared to talk about the matters raised.

    Crikey, really?

    Didn't the Bradford City Horticultural Society already discuss this when a majority vote was cast on pitch over players?

    The pitch is going to need relaying from time to time unless we move stadium.

    Would solar panels on the Sunwin generate enough electric to run those lamps ?.

    I can understand that the actual existing roofing panels, in themselves may not be able to weight bear. However there appears to be a substantial amount of steel framework. I’ve essence if the solar panels were secured to the steel framework rather than the old panels, then surely they could hold the weight. I accept that the slope of the roof and facing East, may not get as much sunlight, but it is actually daylight which apparently charges the solar cells.
    However the front of the stand has a large amount of steel framework, is west facing, which may be able to secure Solar Panels and also existing cladding which perhaps could be utilised for locating solar panels!

    That's the point though, you're just giving your point of view and guessing based on what we were told by Rahic. If we ask the question at the meeting then we potentially get a definitive (or even different) answer on what went wrong and what the available options are.

    I suspect you are probably right in terms of cost and the willingness of Rupp to invest but if you don't ask ........

    It’s ironic when Rochdale spent £500,000 on relaying their pitch at the beginning of February 2018, they were second bottom of League One, eleven points from safety.

    They escaped relegation at the end of the season by a single point.

    Surely there is some sort of mystical story here? ;)

    Even if we do our recruitment policy has to change. Who out of our current players is a saleable asset? Where is the next Mcburnie money gonna come from? We have to stop going from season to season with a “big budget” and signing quick fix type players who are here for the good wages.

    Most of that 60% will become available this summer. This could well be why Bowyer referred to the three transfer windows. It is only on this 'third' window that Bowyer will have 'control' over most of the playing budget.

    That's very true. But a big slice of the commitment to earlier signings disappeared when Scannell left the club.

    Hopefully, we'll be spending next season's budget on Div 1 players who really do want to play for our club! That still leaves a legacy of those recruited largely under the current regime who simply won't be good enough if we manage to get promoted.

    I've seen now Ronnie. I mainly go on this site when I'm at work so don't have 100% concentration at all times on here and must've missed it.
