    I think Clock House was the other green bit on there where it says Oasis School.

    @Bronco@Bronco @Storck@Storck

    Dave you have King George playing fields correct and in the right place. ie Canal Rd. I used to play there for Frizinghall.
    Storck is quite correct re Clock House is/ was the huge area behind BGS . I imagine it was once part of the BGS complex but it was so big they probably gave some to Bradford Council.
    I played there for Green Lane and had trial days with Bradford Boys too.

    City players used to jog from the ground , along Midland Rd , across Queens Rd past the Carlton and the bottom end of Clock House was accessed at the end of the Rd that contained all the big Villas.

    It certainly won't be designed to pay more tax! ;) but I doubt that's the principal reason for the complexity.

    First and foremost is that there are many fingers in the ownership pies, sorry pies, and each party will want to protect their position in the unlikely event it all goes tits up. That's very sensible. It's just that in this case, two decades have passed since the stadium was first built and since then, the complex around the stadium has been developed and new investors introduced. I doubt that the existing ownership structure was anticipated at the time the first arrangement was negotiated and since then it's all grown like Topsy.

    Well last season we all cried out for a goal scoring midfielder, and now we have one

    3 goals in 3 games for our man. Getting better with every game as he gels with his new teammates

    Stay fit and he will end up being the player of the season without a doubt

    Patto, Patto, Patto!!

    Hughes' signings in the 3 transfer windows have been a mixed bag imo; the good, the bad and the downright ugly! Given the short time he's been with us, Pattison is certainly one of the better ones in the first group from my perspective.

    First time I’ve seen him other than Bury which I don’t count, very impressive and very direct. Very much bought as advertised unlike some over the years.

    That provides a great opportunity for Pattison to get a good pre-season behind him in readiness for the next season! :(

    I posted 3 weeks ago it was more serious than first thought and potentially will rule him out for the rest of the season

    Players get injuries unfortunately.

    Thought he was going to be that player we’ve been after who was going to chip in with 10/15 goals from midfield.

    Every team wants a player like that and he had the recent numbers to suggest he could be the one.
