Excellent. He's certainly said all the right things. Let's hope he works as well as he speaks.

Well the administraters report highlights one thing its that the Bulls are probably better with that lot behind them.
So its now owned by a money lender of Wonga proportions.

OK says hes owed or funded £1059000 the administraster can only see money to bank net £375000

Some difference eh.
So if he put it where is it?
How the administrater can have got to grips with these figures after 12 months of no books followed by 6 months of chaos with money going through Bedz rus and Calverts company pay portals and various other means just to keep going is beyond me.

At the moment hes dipped his toe in and there is no money left to fund a serious investigation as Adey myself and I'm sure all Bulls fans would want.

Investigation there may well be but expect now saved a whitewash just as in the previous meltdown.

Interestingly Sutcliffe who acted as a director (with the former leader of Bradford Council Ian Greenwood)from April does not seem worthy of a mention.
Lets hope a thorough investigative forensic audit of ALL transactions can be looked at in as far as they are suspicious.
The report confirms what I and many others have thought all along.

That Ok (in cohoot with undistinguished long time friends in the power game)should have stuck to making chappatis.
Never stick up for this man again FA.

Accounting irregularities,enormous losses,ducking and diving,dsperado going to a money lender on 6 week terms with no hope of honouring,.......IT HITS YOU RIGHT IN THE FACE.

The man was off his trolly.
Those that doubted please revisit the overall picture I realised in past posts here and on the T & A.

Not all entirely accurate but enough not to materially affect judgment.

Hanging would be too good a death.
Elections in a few weeks guys.

You trust New Labour run by a pack of rotund shysters?


We got it first time, OK messed up, but do we have to put up with endless pages of drivel from you all amounting to the same thing. lets look to the future now instead of these tedious inaccurate tirades of yours.

And if you spent a bit more time reading you would see the figures in my earlier post: paid £150K, subsequently put in £375k MORE, gave a personal guarantee to council which he is going to honour for £205K, all adds up to £730K, plus a PG for an unknown amount of Sky money, these all take his commitment far closer to the £900k he claimed to have put in back then than the £375k you are incorrectly pointing to.

Nice to have another chap running the club who likes to make money and do things properly. Followed by a propper finance director. They may not be mega-millionaires but we don't need that. We just need to bring in more money than we spend and use the full salary cap. I am confident that Franny can build a decent team with the same money that everyone else gets. My confidence is starting to grow - just a little and very slowly.

I agree, i kinda like the way things are going.We all had doubts about Marc Green just wanting his brass back,but the way he's going about things it's all very professional.Much better to do things and then tell people instead of putting things on twitter about what you are gonna do,that said I wouldn't of minded the Dr putting money in,but this has got to be the better way

The phrase politically correct is in itself politcally incorrect so should be rephrased politically stupid!

If you like old type radio comedy/ dramas etc listen to //pumpkinfm.com/

Statistically speaking you have a better chance of getting dead the older you get!

Thank god only when you find a religion that passes the truth test!

Well actions will always speak louder than words and Mr Green's actions since taking over the club all seem to be saying that solid foundations are being laid off field

You are a lying, racist idiot. This is not an insult but an accusation. Or character assessment. Whichever you prefer. Why you would think, even for a second, that anyone - least of all me - would want to "revisit" your unspecified previous ramblings, not only here but "on the T&A" I can only guess. Not only will not a single person do so, but you are deluded in offering this ridiculous suggestion. Nobody takes you seriously. Your incoherent, wannabe EJ Thribb verbose style grates on even first glance, let alone on reading. Why would anyone unfortunate enough to encounter it once, ever choose to read it again?

1. Lying - I will just pick one out, "going to a money lender" - you KNOW that it was Whitcut not Khan who went to the money lender. You KNOW he did so to raise money TO BUY KHAN's SHARES. Yet you cynically lie, accusing Khan of borrowing the money, presumably hoping nobody would notice. Not only a lie - an idiotic one.

2. "should have stuck to making chappatis."
A slur with clear racist connotations - which you have got away with before so you don't have the defence that you didn't realise it can be taken that way. Indeed it seems clear you have deliberately regurgitated it. Racist.

3. Idiot:
a) OK was not (as everyone knows) doing "the accounting". He appointed a very poor choice to do that (Whitcut) and of course he is responsible for his poor choice (and has paid and will pay the price) but you cannot accuse Khan of doing what Whitcut did. But, of course, in your case, you feel able to do precisely that.
b)
"Never stick up for this man again FA. ... Hanging would be too good a death."

Words almost fail. You want him DEAD? What sort of a weirdo are you? First, I have always said I will always be grateful to OK for saving our club from disappearing, and that is what he did. Second, we know that, amongst other things:-
* he put in at the very least the £375,000 that the administrator has been able to document
* he also took out a £200,000 loan from the Council which he PERSONALLY GUARANTEED and is now liable for
* he also personally guaranteed pretty much the entire finances of the club to the RFL, including the payment of a further £100,000 that would (as at date of deal) have arisen in 2015.

It looks to me like his intervention has ruined both his finances and his health. But kept my club alive at a time when nobody else would.

In my (very) personal and frank opinion you are therefore a scumbag to write the things you do. Based not on insult, but an honest assessment of the things you have chosen to write. Now if you don't mind go talk to someone else, don't address any more comments directly at me as I have no interest in reading anything further from a person with your qualities, and your deeply unpleasant and IDIOTIC "hanging" comment was for me the last straw.
