Didn't they say it would be Sept before we heard anything further?

What year?

IIRC the last announcement wasnt clear on what would happen in the short term apart from source further funding.

Does anybody know if they are now designing the chosen design?

When's our next news due ?

in this weeks program, Mr Hood says hes confident it will not be long before futher annoucements can be made concerning the stadium devleopment

Well, assuming that everything goes to plan (yes i know that's never happended before but theres a first time for everything) then we've played our last game in the Odsal bowl.

The bloke on the microphone yesterday seemed to be getting in the practice of us playing at the Galpharm....

Yeah, but he's a moron so I wouldn't pay that much mind

Don't worry were off to Dewsbury for 2011.

Apparently there's a small piece about Leigh East struggling to pay the price required by them at Leigh Sports Village in the League Express this week.

The people behind LSV are also behind OSV as far as I know...

It's not a new thing, the Leigh thing has been ongoing, and other authorities have had problems with community facilities at newly built football stadia. It's all well and good building good facilities "for the community" but decent facilities come with a price, and the groups which are used as justification for these things to be built using public funds often find themselves unable to afford to use them.

That para is pretty clueless. Thoughts on the rest of it? Interesting timetable included.

I'd rather not share with the Bantams, but if we have to then so be it.

if it get's Odsal redeveloped I'd have us share with the cast of the latest Big Brother

AXEEED

Unsurprisingly a very one sided article, fair discussion about the pro's and con's of moving to odsal. but then one line of why the bulls should move to VP and no costings of the long term upkeep of VP.

I understand that he wants to stay at VP but if your going to write a piece like that you need to carry though all the arguments raised rather than just some of them.

A partisan article but what does anyone expect?

As long as the Odsal scheme remains on the drawing board 99% of Bulls fans will support it and 99% of City fans will probably be against it. It;s up to the council to look beyond any parochial interests and make the best decision.

How big is the supporters trust at BCFC? I wonder just how much weight it had behind it or whether most fans are pretty apathetic like our own.

Don't think there's been a bit of a shift amongst City fans though Sam? Every time this comes up on their board there seems to be a significant minority (poll I saw but it just under 40%) that support a move to Odsal. The 99% opposition was there a few years ago but seems to be on the wane now.

I thought he was in South America?

That minority will shrink significantly if it is revealed that the club will have to put itself into administration and incur a large points deduction from the football league. Ten to twenty points could be the difference between promotion and lower midtable or midtable and relegation. The article says that there will be a referendum over the move, if administration was to be involved i know where my vote would be going...

Well yeah, out of business, out of the league, or out to Odsal isn't really a choice most City fans would have to take long to think about

I'd be okay with moving to Odsal if it didn't involve administration, wouldn't want the Bulls to go anywhere if it involved admin and points deductions either.

seems like bcfc supporters group are stepping up their publicity campaign

To be honest if Alan Carling didn't pop up every now and then with the same story you probably wouldn't even know it existed.
