Well, just a wild stab in the dark but I'd say that the reason nobody replied to you sooner is they were actually at the match!
Anyway, although it is very frustrating to have to put up with negativity from some quarters while you are trying to achieve something - I'm afraid that's football supporters for you. It doesn't matter whether its Bradford, Brighton or Brazil, it's the same the world over.
But..... these stupid rumours by people with far too much time on their hands, from clubs like FCUM, Bradford City and Boston United, should have been nipped in the bud straight away.
Unfortunately they were allowed to fester without a response and as a result some of our own supporters began to wonder whether there was actually any truth in it.
And just so we get some balance for those of us with memories that go back longer than three years, up to this time in 2005 the club had enjoyed 17 years of practically unbroken success. We had a few promotions, no relegation at all in that time, and it culminated in the F.A. Cup tie with Bristol City.
I'm delighted the slide has been reversed, but we've had some good times before, you know.
dead right Robert.
chop chop you know f"ck all about BPA or its history so don't come on here slagging true fans off and making out like we should all not be bothered about the LIES told to the local newspaper, the piss taking at the clubs expense or the humiliation caused by certain big mouthed owners.
the rumours as you put it Robert were not started by away fans from FCUTD or City or anywhere else, they were facts which were questioned by various people and still to this day remain unanswered. OK, so the big man has invested heavily but at what expense to the club? a liar who can't lie straight in bed is not to be trusted, especially when in the same breath drawn there is talk of long term commitment and proposals of a new ground.
Draw your own conclusion people but i was around when we went to the wall the first time so i've seen it all before and know the warning signs.
a lot of fans choose to bury their heads in the sand and go along with the ride which they are of a free disposition to do so. Lets just hope that YOU also support the club through thick AND thin, not just disappearing along with BBs finances when the time comes. I'm bored with reading messiah-like comments aimed at BBs achievements in the last 12 months, when its 12 YEARS lets check back in eh?

lets not knock bob to much. lets face it without his money avenue were going nowhere. But at the same time questions need to be asked about the clubs future financial plans and the financial structure of the club.
Bob will not be at the Avenue forever, by all means enjoy the next few years but always have one eye on the long term future and don't make the mistakes of the past.
i am sure everybody wishes him all the best and are right behind him, but there's nothing wrong asking questions which bob should not mind answering about the long term financial structure he plans for the club.

i AM a true fan
yes i was at the game, were you?
looked for BB but was toild he was not around to answer potentially embarrasing questions with REAL answers.
only one liar on here pal and thats BB (sorry 2 inc yourself)
the fans deserve better.
yes all you kissers, i know BB has put money in, but no businessman worth his salt does it for no gain.
where does all the money come from is another question that should be asked.
keep burying your heads in the sand and telling yourself it'll all be alright, if you say it enough times it will become believable.

Its Normal for a football club to last longer than the current owner. As for your personal finances, i am not interested, only the club future concerns me.
