Bradford survive

Thursday 6th July.

I didn't get time to ring the season ticket hotline today, so I sent the application form and cheque in the pre-paid envelope provided, the only problem is that the closing date is tomorrow and the envelope was only second class. Oh well, let's see what happens and I will argue the toss if there is a problem, after all, I can always tell them that I posted it earlier in the week and that the post office must have delayed it.

Conflicting reports on the Andy Booth saga suggest that Steve Bruce and Paul Jewell have spoken about the possibility of a signing, but that the Sheffield Wednesday Chairman has issued a 'hands off' warning and that Booth is staying put. Since their relegation, Wednesday are trying to reduce their wage bill, but look more likely to ship out their expensive foreign imports and hang onto to Andy Booth probably because he is the only one who has even the remotest chance of understanding Paul Jewell's scouse drawl.

Steve Bruce's first and possibly most unspectacular signing (apart from Kwami Hudoutu of course who was a complete waste of a squad number) Georgios Donis, has been called up to do his Greek National Service! I would have thought that at 31 years of age he would be a bit long in the tooth, but let's hope that he can shoot more accurately with a Kalashnikov than he can with a ball in front of goal! Apparently he can't leave Greece until he has been issued with an exemption certificate, although this is supposed to be a formality and Town expect this to be sorted out in a couple of days.
