Changing the CEO doesn't fix anything either. I really don't think Rhodes is to blame, it goes above him. Rupp calls the shots, he says how much money will be available and the CEO just has to manage that budget. And clearly Rupp has said our budget is fuck all. That's why we got rid of Vaughan and why we replaced him with nobody. Bring Baldwin or even Jenkins in as CEO and nowt will change. If the owner doesn't give a flying fuck then that affects the whole club. Rhodes is good in situations like this- somehow keeping the club afloat. I wouldn't trust him with any actual real money, but unless Rupp fucks off we're not going to have any actual real money. I hear differently, Rupp wanted to do more. I'd hope so, otherwise we'll be stuck until he does. If true then he needs to stop being an absentee owner and lay down the law.

I don’t know any more than it not being who we hoped for. Anyone else heard owt? Not heard anything but I think if we don’t get Sparks it’ll be someone with a half decent CV in a totally unrelated industry. A bloke who’s done a few years in retail and ended up in middle management at Morrison’s or similar. The gompers will work out fantastical ways in which they imagine his skills will be transferable and say out loud that it’s a good appointment. Plus ça change.

It’s just such an important appointment that we can’t really afford to go half arsed but I think that we probably will while Rupp is still here.

It'll be some kid with a diploma in business studies knowing us. The cream of Bradford College. He'll be described by Radio L666s as 'full of ideas', 'fearless' and 'a breath of fresh air'. Parker will shit out a puff piece followed by an exclusive interview. "i thought i had my future career mapped out infront of me... a business entrepreneur and lifestyle youtuber specialising in men's fashion. Things we're looking good, y'know, looking positive" "Then i was approached by Julian. After selling me his vision... followed by a Willy Wonka esq speech about how he'd searched far and wide for the right person to take the reigns of his cherished Bradford City... i knew this was my calling. I humbly and graciously accepted. I knew what i had to do. The people of Bradford have suffered so and now they look to me. They look to me for hope. For leadership. I will not let them down"

It's me, I am quitting teaching to help the club in their hour of need, even with a pay cut down to 3 magic beans and a can of Lilt.. My school teams have won all the Kirklees trophies and I have line managed a couple of teachers. Mainly though, I know football. My numerous links of PE departments in W Yorkshire will be invaluable in our recruitment of both players and managers. I am looking forward to taking on the role and driving us forwards

Word is that the new CEO is a bald chap and yet another returning employee to the club. Typical Rhodes.
Fail to see how anything changes.

Yes but the old one. McCall is planning to sign Junior for a record twelfth time.

Of all the ex employees he's by far and away the best shout.
But does our network not extend beyond the BD postcode?
