Anything north of the 18th hole at Potters Bar GC is not NICE

LOL Southern Softies wouldn't know what a decent golf course is, Potters Bar just has to be a Parkland course, no gorse, no proper rough and the lip of every bunker below your knees rather than above your shoulders. I'd bet you think Wentworth or Sunningdale have more tradition than Montrose Medal

No he doesn't, expensive is not the same as nice. The area where Ryan Whitcut lives was found by independent research to offer the best quality of life of anywhere in England. That research focussed on family life and was based on a number of factors including quality of schools, price and quality of housing availability of local services etc.

There are many areas of Yorkshire and indeed across the Pennines that far exceed anywhere in the South East where small houses with tiny gardens cost ridiculous sums and the proximity of so much culture is misleading as it is not readily accessible due to the difficulty of travelling relatively short distances.

I'm not sure he lives in that house on Laund Road. When I waited outside I never saw him.

Still interesting house though it's got a car on top of it and rover parked outside with a toilet seat hanging off the back and garden furniture lashed to the roof.

It does speak volumes about where London are as a club when a London based businessman who wants to get into RL bypasses them completely and goes up north to find a club.

You've run out of dodgy geezers in Bradford so we're having to ship them in for you

Hi ya Armen,
Spouting a great deal of rubbish once more, but on the good site for supporters, shame!
One figure lets you down and lets us know who you are! For discerning readers the figure of £31.2 and £5.4 m are the product of an unusually strange and maybe mind.

Sorry I dropped the £ sign for the 3.It should have read £1.2 million.But that was at the end of September.What is it now.The £5.4 million Bradford Council "gave"the Bulls in 2002 is well documented in press archive on the Telegragh Argus website.I only repeat what I read in these ridiculous numbers game.

I was thinking along similar lines. Moore, Calvert and Watt have said the same things as Lamb and seem to be similarly well off financially. None of them are prospective Davy/Koukash/Moran types. On the plus side he’s already passed his fit and proper person’s test according to today’s T&A so that means he’s better than Whitcu*t. He also writes a better press release than the current directors.

Whatever, I hope this is resolved soon as I’m fast losing interested and like Keith Boaza will just be going to the games until this charade is over.

This is the real problem/challenge for whoever ends up owning the club for the remainder of the season, the goodwill and patience of fans has been all but exhausted. So even the die hard fans are just utterly fed up with the circus, everyday its just more uncertainty and potential bad news, so what would entice the casual fan/potential fan to turn up? With a few early loses I can see attendances falling off a cliff, worseing the financial situation. I suspect season ticket sales will be very low anyway comparatively speaking because of another car crash of an off season.

We really need some stabilty, some good news and good performances on the pitch, especially as we'll be relying on pay on the day punters more this year. I live more in hope than expectation.
