I suspect the final winner won't say a word in the press until it's done, and lawn looked to be backpedaling so fast today I'd now be amazed if he got it. It'll be green (hope not) or someone we've not heard directly from yet.

Not quite what he put. Down to 4 'beneficial' bids doesn't rule out ones that mick considers non beneficial and he won't have seen details of any of bids to make any judgement anyway.

Mick has no more idea than the rest of us. At least with this administration it looks like it will be done quickly. Fingers crossed

1. the wages need paying 1st dec
2. someone will need to shell out to pay them
3. that someone will be the new owner
4. the new owner will be announced no later than 30th nov

I do like the look of the new RICOH stadium complex in coventry.
Built with a M£34 raised bond
A similar one would look really nice at odsal

Marc Green is still in the running if this part of his original statement is to go by "I will be working closely with the Administrators over the coming weeks and it is my intention to regain this club from them within the shortest practicable time frame" Although I would think he's hoping he wont have to, apparently he's been putting in a similar amount monthly that Degsy is purported to be doing at Leigh Now getting interesting http://www.thetelegraphandargus.co.uk/s ... buy_Bulls/

The administrator's comments in that article suggest to me that Green won't be in the running as he talks about supporters being buoyed and confident with the three main parties who may take over.

If he has any idea at all about how supporters currently feel then he would never put those two words in a sentence describing how supporters might feel about Marc Green.

The fact that all three have had experience in rugby makes it interesting though. That could still include Green. It could include Koukash. It could also include Lamb because he doesn't specifically say Rugby League. Although he does say they know the players and the game well.

Still a complete guessing game and I'm starting to think we may be surprised by the outcome.

Encouraged that deadline for offers is today and this may all be resolved asap.

Yes, positive article that does seem to suggest it won't be Green who gets it.

But then, we are used to nasty surprises.

I have got to say I have supported Bradford for 25 years and if Green gets the club again it's time for me to have a break.

"I will be working closely with the Administrators over the coming weeks and it is my intention to regain this club from them within the shortest practicable time frame"
If this were indeed Marc's aim, why was he not able to avoid admin by providing the funds to do so? No one can be certain, but he has been suffering a cash flow problem and the Club has long been treading water under him.
