Unlikely. OSV plans seem to be firming up though.

Again

If you start to bring up items such as Arena 84 then maybe we should bring up items such as Why did your Club used to be called Bradford Northern (1964) Limited. What happened in 1964 as if we didn't know. We'v ebeen there as well you know.

We can all name call and insult with the best of them but for goodness sake - keep it up to date.

No name-calling going on, just amused to see Huddersfield fans accusing Bradford of not investing in their stadium as if their club had saved up in a piggy-bank for the McAlpine.

You haven't invested in your club though despite your good crowds and success over the years.

Whose funding OSV if it ever gets the go ahead?

Not true - the Coral Stand was built by the club on its return from Valley Parade. Before then a great deall of time and effort was invested in the Tesco-backed scheme, only for it to be rejected by the government. Before that, the club's hands were tied by Bradford Council's ludicrous attempt to take the national stadium from Wembley.


A whole number of different bodies including the Bulls. They need help, just as Huddersfield needed help. Huddersfield's good fortune was to get that help the best part of twenty years ago. It's only now that they seem to be taking advantage of it, but good for them regardless, better late than never.

That being my point, all clubs need help whether it be the council, private funding etc, we just had the foresight 20 years ago to get it sorted.

Has your chairman got a bit of brass or will it mainly be council funded do you think?

Bulls/Northern were well aware of the need to improve their facilities in the 80s, but as I detailed above the circumstances were pretty much insurmountable. Had the Tesco scheme been approved as the similar Saints one has been, we'd have moved into a Galpharm-a-like at Odsal in 2004. As it was, we didn't, but not because of a lack of effort on behalf of the club.


Compared to me, yes. Compared to Davy etc, no. Council will have to cover the lion's share, but then the project is designed to be of benefit to the wider community rather than just the Bulls.

All still up in the air, but if you're interested, [url=http://viewtopic.php?t=329903&highlight=this[/url should cast some more ligth on the whole murky process. Feel free to skim.

How many pages?



Ive got a game to go to tonight

Get out of work, get home, the three esses and then off to the game!

Roll on home time!

The coral 'stand'







Arena 84....20 years ago? Your timelines are terrible. I look forward to you blaming the failure to develop Odsal on Gladstone or Julius Caesar (anybody but the Bulls)

I totally agree with you, if he's more interested in where he pi$$es then he could save his season ticket money up and get his bathroom renovated, then listen to the game on the radio whilst taking a slash in his lovely clean toilet.

And that's the best you could come up with? I'm hurt, no really!

ATEOTD boys my point is this: when comparing the grounds it's well worth the quid extra in. But then you already know that. If you have kids going to the game then we're actually cheaper. Better to check out the muck your chucking prior to chucking it, then you don't end up having to resort to crappy comebacks that are rather pitiful.

Now I must dash, got to get my three esses in before I set off to Bradford and start scratting about for a cheap ticket in a pub...

save us some pal haha

If I get offered a few I'll get them!

Funnily enough when you are not some slob from the gutter you like to watch a game in decent conditions and use proper toilets.

aye about 200 !! prob see you in top house if we go then

Will it be cheaper than my free one?

Lee! Any spare?

Come on, I've done you favours!

Just had 2 mate, me and sprog

You lot, it's a one way bloody street!

Nay bother, Daz would have gotten it if you had anyway as he's been laid off.

aw thanks kind sir !! young mr manners owes me one anyway after the semi final in 06

Young Mr Manners got them

So you're not from Marsden then?
