Can’t forgive the bloke. Not a word of support for his home town club yet becomes grovelling and contrite when Bradford hit hard times.

He is one individual I never want to see around Trinity - give me 10 Broughs and a 100 Chester’s any day.

Was exactly my point the last time his name got brought up on this forum, I haven`t got time for the bloke.

Being from Wakefield, he should have had a fair amount of sympathy for our plight. However, having actually played for Bradford for 9 years?, there was nothing wrong with the guy trying to "do his bit" to help them in their hour of need.

You surely cant begrudge him doing that ?

I wouldn't had the bloke even uttered one word of sympathy for our plight - he pointedly refused.

I an't got a problem with his bit for the yrs he played at bradford but how many on here told the bradford faithful to ignore the calls to put up money in a kitty as it would just be wasted and was just a drop in the ocean, but you might expect a bit of sympathy the plight we was in at the time bearing in mind it was his home town, hence why when the call to fill the clubs pockets up from the efforts of the supporters made look a bit of a div
after what they did to the supporters I'm surprised they even get one through the gates now, they most be either very thick or easily forgiven

I might be an old dullard but when your born with the boundaries that is your roots and I would expect every player/coach to have a degree of wanting to play/coach for the club
all this supporting clubs because they have been successful further afield really gets me unless you have a reason through family connections or roots
