    I am just hoping that it's Parker using a dubious source from twitter last night. There is NO way that Edin could be this stupid? It's an absolute PR disaster. It might not be the best idea Stuart agreeing to appear given the feeling around the club at the moment, but he has too much class to stir anything up on live TV. What is Edin frightened about (if true?) Surely he would know the backlash of trying to stop him appearing far outweighs any repercussions of him actually appearing. He obviously doesn't know Stuart, and it's almost like he's paranoid to the point he's losing control.

    Yet another news item we could do without if true.
    Stuart McCall not welcome at Valley Parade unbelievable set of circumstances surrounding our club at the minute.
    I don't know what to believe anymore.

    I wish the club takeover had never taken place in hindsight.
    Im deeply saddened by this latest revolation if true.Are the Two owner's hell bent on dismantling the club before our eyes whilst alienating the paying customers further more in the process.
    I posted about season ticket renewal earlier in the day this is just another situation that won't galvanize our fanbase and the owners.

    I guess it is up to the Club to clarify the situation on its own Web Site. It would just be another issue which tends to alienate supporters, if it is true. :(

    Simon Parker wouldn't have even reported this 3 months ago with fear of upsetting the owners. Looks like he's also got an axe to grind....

    I've actually noticed Simon's reports of late and though i'd detected little digs at the club.
    You don't always see eye to eye with reporters but Simon I feel is speaking for the general Bradford City supporters.

    If this is true it's a disgrace and I don't care what anyone at VP thinks of my views as it's how I feel.
    How can you tell a Bradford City Icon and a model professional like Stuart he's welcome any time at VP then try exclude him.

    I've seen some things in my time since 1960 at VP but this is a new low.
    If there's a big self destruct button at VP then someone in charge as just hit it with a sledge hammer.

    I don't think this is the owners trying to hush up some horrid secret that Stuart might blab live on TV. I imagine the only possible reason is that the owners didn't want tonight's game to be all about Stuart, more chants etc. They might have thought it wouldn't have been reported but it just seems another blunder to add to the portfolio. I don't think they are malicious, I just think they are more prone to clangers than Mr Bean is.

    I fully understand that and I agree they want to stop the evening being like a tribute to Stuart however if we as a club are playing host to Sky TV and Sky wish Stuart to be a guest then what's it got to do with the club?
    I'm getting very disillusioned about our club at the moment and this is just another sorry episode in the long line of bloopers happening at VP.

    Yeah, it is becoming tedious trying to keep up to date with all the rumours. I just want to see a much-improved performance on the pitch for the last games of the season, Id love to see a bit of attacking flair but I won't hold my breath.

    Lets look forward to the summer and a nice clean slate!

    Rahic has denied it now with an interview with parker but I personally see his excuses as laughable. I feel like he's quickly thought of a reason to have spoken to sky. Jamie Lawrence says he knows that it's true. Tbh I'm more inclined to believe parker and Lawrence than rahic

    Sadly I think a lot of people believe the same.

    I'm worried that the situation with the owners is getting beyond repair now. I feel like I can only see this going one way. We have massive problems at the club and it's hard to see them being fixed

    Apparently Stefan has said, 'I’ve no problem with Stuart but the question we had was from the safety point of view'. http://www.thetelegraphandargus.co.uk/sport/16155309.Bradford_City_chairman_denies_trying_to_ban_McCall_from_TV_duty/#comments-anchor

    Frankly that sounds somewhat bizarre! Just what is the 'safety' point of view? :confused: Where and what is the 'risk'?

    Will those of us going to the game be at risk?

    As someone who is asked to summarize, why should there suddenly be 'safety' issues?

    Why are they only raising this after the announcement of Stuart in that capacity?

    Surely 'due diligence' would have seen this being addressed as soon as the fixture was announced.
