Bradford survive

Monday 4th December.

Following Saturdays win, Macari is still pledging to bring some new faces to the McAlpine. He recognises that although performances lately have improved the present squad is still not good enough and we need some genuine competition for first team places. Recalled loan man Rob Kozluk will stay at Bramall Lane for at least another week as injuries and suspensions mean that he is needed for at least one more match. We have heard these promises of new arrivals for many weeks now so I suppose I shouldn’t get very excited.

The speculation about a possible new investor does seem to have some real substance. Norwegian multi-millionaire Atle Brynestad who is a former chairman of the Cunard Cruise Line watched the game after flying in on his private jet, and he and his entourage spent the day looking at the stadium and facilities, as well as witnessing a rare Town victory. Barry Rubery has confirmed that he is keen to talk to any potential investors in the club, and with the financial results coming out later this week Mr Brynestad might be just what we need. Apparently he has also looked at Queens Park Rangers, Bury and Carlisle as other possible investments so we shouldn’t start spending his money just yet. Let’s wait and hope…
