    I don't do Sky. In the unlikely event that he says anything interesting would you post it on here EB?

    I believe the office at Rawdon Meadows is the first as far as Bradford City are concerned.
    So after saying "pretty sure the majority of chairman / owners will have an office at the training ground. to be honest, i’d be surprised if they all didn’t" you know of one Sheffield United :eek:.

    Not the first owners and won’t be the last who take us backwards.

    Lawn and Rhodes did but turned it around. It can be salvaged

    Remind me which owners change what was a very successful club getting into a play off place under Parky and McCall and changed things totally to suit there model of how a successful football club should be run.
    They even said they would not change the way the club was run as that was one of the reasons they purchased us, sorry they get no credit from me for our club being in the state it is at the moment.
    I do hope your last comment turns out to be correct, even if it is salvaged many will not renew and without the fan base even accepting the cheap season tickets it will take something special to get them back on board, and I don't think David Hopkins is in the same league as Phil Parkinson.

    There is. You can't pass the FA qualification without showing you can coach.

    I think Hopkin will turn it around and did when he first came in and still do.

    The players were signed by a committee of 3/4 of the worst candidates you can ever dream up in footballing terms. Abbott. Drury, Collins and Edin. Now what do they have to show they can sign players for a league one side going for the play offs minimum? They have nothing. Yet they used a half decent budget to assemble this squad so sadly we are stuck with it now until January.

    Hopkin has not only got to arrest the slide he’s got to do so with a squad put together by those 4. Now we haven’t got to January yet and are in need of some points. But what else can he change before January? I think he will change his staff eventually. He will change the squad. And if we become a success again on the pitch I think people will be less vocal about the owners.

    It would be great because he then might be sacked and I wouldn't have to watch him play football again.

    I'd think it is well know within football circles what has and is happening at our club, there may be more coming out during the coming week.

    Do you have a link @CT Bantam@CT Bantam ?.

    I heard there is a German paper doing an article about the club and our owners with regards the time they have been in charge of the club.

    And if you worked for a company with an owner that wasn't great and was interviewed for a programme that could be seen by the guy that employs you - you'd come out and slate him or confirm that he is indeed a twatook??

    I don't think so.

    where do you get the impression I'd do anything different?

    I was just pointing out what this item will consist of.

    he wouldn't want to get himself sacked but it would free up a wage.

    Wonder if he'd take one for the team and do the right thing and speak the truth??

    It would be far more interesting if it was Jake Wright!
