    On that basis, it sounds as though from Gordon Gibbs perspective, he has enough to concentrate on rather than become embroiled in running Bradford City.

    Or light hearted sarcasm. It depends how much of a snowflake you are.

    If they were to take over, what realistically would change?

    I doubt they’d pump millions into the transfer fund. Would they keep season tickets low and stand the shortfall to the budget?

    Despite the upheaval we’ve had this year, I quite like the approach they’ve taken this season (even though I was sceptical earlier). If it works why would we want to change? The timings not right.

    Tordoff. Can piss off. Still haven't forgive him from 1988.

    I’m sure he can forget help and assistance from Bradford Councillors . A non starter if I ever saw one!

    It's a news story. From a journalist. And probably bollox.

    But can't wait to throw the word haters in?

    Simon Parker just tweeted he's spoke to both Gibb and Edin and story is on it's way.

    Unless there is a firm bid on the table I’d consider it trash talk / rumour. Anyway, which horse are you referring to? I don’t see why direct quotes from Gibb or Tordoff in the article I saw.

    It was a direct quote from the Journalist whom spoke to Gibb. I would suggest he wouldn't have gone on the record with his chat without GG's prior knowledge

    Gibbs sister took the cleethorpes park over in 2008 and subsequently closed it. Don’t forget gibb was the wronged party back in the day with the Rhodes family putting the club into administration to oust him.

    I’ve always thought he was a very shrewd businessman and if he wants in would welcome him

    Based on what?

    Gibbs previous tenure?

    The fact that Todoff is in his late eighties?

    Could it be an injection of capital?

    Can’t be that shrewd if he allowed someone to shaft him. Not that I know the full story of his ousting.

    I think he’s trying to gauge fan opinion. It would be very naughty of Tanner to go with this tweet if it was just a flippant comment from Gibb. Has to be some substance to the comment, Gibb must be serious or it makes Tanner look foolish.
