Did you come on here after your play-off embarrassment? I'm not sure? What difference would it make if I did or didn't. I know that I can return to his forum whenever I see fit to do so (admin approval pending), and share with you my views. We've had enough success as a club in recent seasons to be not to disheartend about the play-off exit. It was a completely out of character performance, but in terms of moving forward as a club, we're doing exactly that.

Any proof to substantiate your claim? I'm baffled, as every ticket sold were indeed exchanged for cash. Apart from the free to under 11s you complete c***. What's it like to be the 8th biggest city in the UK and have the 11th biggest Town in the UK have better support? Oh, so you ARE completely refusing to take into account the admin charge for such ticket. Y'see, I thought you were. As said, you complete c***, every ticket was exchanged for cash.

Any proof to substantiate your claim? I'm baffled, as every ticket sold were indeed exchanged for cash. How many 23-game season tickets (not flexi-tickets) have been sold in exchange for cash (not given away for free)? Certainly far from the 18,000 which your club claim to have "sold". Oh, full paying adults, you mean? That would be similar to last season, so circa 14,000ish - confirmed on an article in T&A, should you wish to troll through the site? Doesn't that also surpass your full paying adult sales?

Oh, it is. Now, the point you're struggling to grasp is that your attendance wasn't actually 20000 yesterday, it was 16,000. With 2,000 away fans, that would seem you had 14k home fans. Now given we've sold 18,000 ST's/Flexis, with the 500 Coventry fans yesterday, if we do indeed anounce our attendances as total tickets sold, why wasn't the attendance announced at 18,500, y'know, given that was how many tickets were sold yesterday? Couple of wins and another one crawls out of the woodwork. A couple of defeats, the crevices will again become appealing. Three in a row, mate.

I actually heard there was circa 11,000 in the gayfarm yesterday - can anyone clarify this? Once again, more home fans that yous. Oh, and I believe our attendance yesterday was less than ST's sold, strange that, given our numbers are vastly inflated by the number of tickets sold theory. Happy Sunday's. There were 16,119 in attendance yesterday (approx 14,000 home fans), which is several thousand more than the number of 23-game season tickets sold by Bradford in exchange for cash. Any proof to substantiate your claim? I'm baffled, as every ticket sold were indeed exchanged for cash.

A thread about attendances with no Bradford fans commenting? Did I wake up in a parallel universe this morning?? 🤔 I actually heard there was circa 11,000 in the gayfarm yesterday - can anyone clarify this? Once again, more home fans that yous.

Well known? Well known on here, granted. Same old response from the little pups, and yet they still ignore the fact that we've been attracting higher home attendances for the past 3-4 years. But of course, there's only 6,836 there. LOLz It's about time you find something else to do, you were dull a few years back and you've got duller. For once, I agree. Certainly was dull a few years back, of which prompted the Hudders mini-revival. In doing so, millions being spent, and what's achieved is mind-blowing - Championship football, and the excitement of a relegation dog-fight (no pun intended) year in, year out. Oh to be a, oh to be a terrier. Well jealous me.

Of which attracted a larger attendance.... Not a bad result, given we were missing 5 key players. Give it a rest. Drabford are well-known for their pretendence figures. Probably include the ref and 2 linesmen as well. Before the cheap & free tickets they used to get the crowd to autograph the ball after the final whistle. Tin pot. Well known? Well known on here, granted. Same old response from the little pups, and yet they still ignore the fact that we've been attracting higher home attendances for the past 3-4 years.

If we sell 15000, which we obviously will/have done already, thats a thousand more than what Bradford sold at £150 last season, so still not a bad effort. Not exactly true though, is it? Given we sold 18,100 last season. not even sold 15k LOLz.

You lot sold 15,000 yet? They've been on sale, like, forever.
£179. Championship football. New manager. Transfer record broken. 14k sales. Shocking.
Not as easy you lot were thinking, eh, this cheap season ticket malarkey.
Meanwhile, we've sold more than last year after 45 days on sale.
Looks like we'll have more home fans than you again next season.
You've won the 1st division three times in a row 200 years ago tra la la la la la la la la

I may have spotted the flaw in that plan! I agree. But the potential return probably makes it a decent risk. Lets face it, thats pretty much what Town have done (and a big reason as to why we've been in bottom third every year). The difference is we did it from a negative monetary starting point in League 1, and with crowds at a low ebb. Any financial gain we've had from being a division higher has just been swallowed into the ongoing money pit. Bradford City arent at a low ebb, and IF they could get promoted, they could probably double their playing budget and still turn a profit because of the extra solidarity money etc. (doubling budget would still leave them in a difficult place though). Stand corrected; second logical post I've seen (barring mine).

I thought it sounded dodge as soon as i heard it. Why would a group of german footballing men rolling in it invest in english football never mind Bradford. Some looney arabs, russians etc investing in an english side as there little play toy maybe. Im looking forward to seeing how this one unfolds as they genuinely think there the next man city judging by the forum ffs. Why would they invest?? Because Bradford City are a very good looking club to invest in. No debt (including low to zero director loans), no real assets other than the Football League share, therefore exchanged at a relatively low price (, seeming continuous steady year on year progression such that the play offs is now really the bottom level of their barometer of expectation. Get promoted and stay up without making massive changes and theyll be profiteering to £2m+ a season, suddenly the club will be 'worth' £15m-£20m and because they are investors rather than Dean Hoyle, theyll quickly move the club on to someone prepared to put bigger money in to push to the next level. First logical post I've seen on this forum (barring mine).

Get promoted and stay up without making massive changes. If Bradford had somehow managed to go up this year and not make any massive changes, they would get absolutely spanked all over by every team in this league next year. They were absolutely woeful in every way. You only have to look at some of the players that have come through our doors since going up that we've merely just survived (ok this year perhaps not true reflection of our ability) to see that unless you invest quite considerably you're off straight back down. MK tried it this year, and it did a lot of good for them. Absolutely laughable. This theory based on watching he play-offs, I assume? I'm not going to go into why we fell at this hurdle, as you probably don't give two foooks. We didn't play anywhere near aswell as we have done. Without really playing well last season, we still managed 80 points and 27 clean sheets (some sorta record in there if you can be arsed to look).

I would be very suprised if these foreign investors have a lot of cash. Bradford aint a club or a place that is going to attract rich foreign investment and never will be. Small unheard of club, no history, no decent assets,a small fanbase and would easily be in the champions league places if there was a league going for the biggest shithole in England. Browsed there forum and quotes such as 'if we get a new stadium it needs to be 60,000' and 'we have more potential than man city as they have man utd to compete with'. Classics. Heard half a story on this awhile back. It's not really a "consortium" as such, the money comes from the one German, who purportedly has funds of £100m (less than Hoyle, and obviously this won't all be liquid or accessible or even intended to be part of potential 'investment' in Bradford). He will stay in Germany and has no interest or background in football. Fronting the team in the UK will be a BOSNIAN (papers will still call this a German consortium), who has knowledge of football business admin through a brief (1 year) period as a scout plus he had a role I can't remember at a German football club. Will be an interesting one to watch...as things stand with a playing budget of circa £3m Bradford would disappear like Yeovil should they get promoted, losing to Millwall is probably the best thing that could happen to them in context of this takeover, whilst they remain at a level where ~£1m keystone investment could actually make a difference. Probably the club that Cellino should have bought. Truth is, no one really knows anything about these guys, do they? We'll no more tomorrow when the statement is released. Talk of playing budgets is a little premature, also. Yes, our playing budget this season was £3m, but had we gone up, it would've been very similar to yours. When we currently turn over circa £6-£7m in L1, the Champ is worth an additional £7m in turnover from next season. If we were to thrown everything we earnt during that financial year, it would enable us to have a £12m playing budget. Obviously, these are very quick figures with nothing to really substantiate than the general insight from those looking in.

You see, this is what's so baffling about you little pups. The league you currently ply your trade in, you know, the one that constantly boast about being in; we have spent the same number of seasons in as you. Well, almost. You've spent 30 years in the Champ, and we've spent 29. However, we haven't seen that league for 12 years. Before your return, we'd spent more time in the Champ than you. You need to let go of the 1st division championships, too. They were a long, long time ago. The Prem is a completely different ball game, but I wouldn't expect you to know much about the Prem - coupled with European footbal; but that is a level you'll never EVER see, I suppose. Sadford, the only club to take pride in the Inter two bob trophy that they qualified for on the back of no other fucker being bothered to enter Sent from my SM-G900F using proboards It's just a great tool to use at our disposal, knowing full well Huddersfield Fucking Town won't ever plays Zenit Saint-Petersburg at any level.

Annnnnnnnd new owners confirmed. Take over next week. Initial £10m investment to get out of L1, then on from there. Keep talking little pups, keep talking. We've been through some reete sheete since relegation from the Prem in 2001, but nobody can deny that we're on our way back. I suggest you beg for more pocket money To ensure Champ status, because it's becoming very likely we could be leap-frogging you next campaign. Way back where? You always have been bottom two leagues. A fluke couple of years doesn't change that. You've been in the league more with Park Avenue and Halifax than you ever have with us or Leeds. You just think football started when the PL did or summat...getting promoted would be over achieving for Bradford, you are where you belong historically. It's dangerous to get ideas above your station. You see, this is what's so baffling about you little pups. The league you currently ply your trade in, you know, the one that constantly boast about being in; we have spent the same number of seasons in as you. Well, almost.

Year on year progression. German investors. Takeovers. 20,000 ST sale targets. Multiple new sponsorships. Reverting back to stripes. Next season looks quite rosey, to be honest. We'll piss this tinpot league, and if we don't, we'll cross paths in the 17-18 season when your luck swallows you whole. You don't half talk some fucking wank. Care to elaborate?

I hope that's of some comfort to you whilst you're slugging it out with Oxford and Northampton next season....who are ya, who are ya. Year on year progression. German investors.

They are saying the crowd of 19000 was wrong and there were more in the ground. What the halfwitted ones are unable to grasp is that their usual 18000 is actually nearer 11000. That's why there looked to be more than usual, because there was a correct attendance announced rather than the usual contrived fabrication. Also read pages of how difficult it would be to get an away leg ticket, and one guy queuing all night to ensure a seat. 12-30pm today and they are selling the initial allocation online to anyone. Come on Queeny, "Bradford" and "attendance", you must have read this by now... Poor do - only 11,536 there.

He'll return to City at some point anyway, he loves he club. Be nice for his career to go full circle. Start off as a 6 year old training on a school field. Finish up as a 30 year old training on a school field. You haven't seen the facilities the school has to offer then? Just refer to the fact we train their pitch....that's it. Moronic.

Dearer me. The same old drivel again, eh. I don't know how many times we need to tell you, but we DO receive money through add-ons. Everyone knows this. It WILL rise to £2m - and a board member only confirmed a few weeks ago that we had currently received £1.6m from yous. We also receive £50k once he reaches 15 goals. He's doing well, just like we all knew he would. I hope he continues to do well, and some club comes in with a whopper deal. Given we have a lucrative 20% sell on clause, negotiated by the one and only David Baldwin (now at Burnley), it's likely you'll only sell Nahki for £5m+. That's a cool £1m+ in our coffers. So, in all, we could be looking at receiving £3m+ for a player at the time who had only proved himself in L2 and four months in L1. Not to shabby IMO. He'll return to City at some point anyway, he loves he club. Imagine.... Same old drivel? Claret and banter repeatedly has the debate on how much manningham get every time nahki scores. £100k a goal, £10k a goal.... I suggest you go get your own house in order before coming on here trying to educate town fans. Inabit Few people claim to be in the know, so you'll find those figures are merely tongue in cheek - of which is almost always used as fuel for fire on this messageboard, because in all honesty, there really are a fair few simpletons on DATM.
