    OK ........... Nice support from Julian - But what does it all mean ?

    You can either support him / them - or not.

    Why did Julian actually sell ?

    YOU the jury, will decide. :)

    Absolute nothing interview. "Being the chairman of a football club is stressful". No shit.
    Struggling to find anything to read from this. A show of confidence for Edin perhaps? Slow news day. Change that by getting some exciting players in on loan Edin!

    Did the T&A use the same old picture of Joolz though or have they managed to get another one. I'm guessing he must have popped up as a yearly reminder on Parker's Outlook Tasks - "rehash the same old Julian Rhodes interview and picture before the end of August".

    It's an odd article given Rhodes' previous approach to T&A interviews and his preference for using the YP as his outlet. Maybe Parker was hoping JR would say something out of turn! He'd be better off having a word with ML if that really was his intention ;)

    I think it's fair play to Rhodes. For the club to be successful it's needs to be joined up from top to bottom. Rhodes wouldn't give his support if he didn't think it best for Bradford.

    Julian's comments are just bland recollections of his time as joint chairman empathising with our current owners who are now leading the club.

    There is no special praise for how well they are performing, just a hope it works our for them kind of sentiment. Same for us all.

    As for pressure etc, I had more sympathy for Mark and Julian doing the job. They are born and bred City fans who were desperately trying to keep the ship afloat on limited resources. That is pressure.

    R and R knew what they were taking over , are not as emotionally invested in Bradford City and do have collectively much deeper pockets.

    Most, if not all the pressure heaped upon the current chairmen is self inflicted IMO.

    Nah, they've got a new one with him looking grey haired next to Lawn. Obviously the only other picture they have along with his desk one.
