Richmond Out? Are You Completely Off Your Head?

"The fools who rush in" also say that amongst other things, Geoff only deals with 2 agents because they give him "bungs", that seats in the ground have been "sold" to a leasing company to raise funds and are being leased back by BCFC, that GR is responsible for the signings and picks the team, that it is his fault that we have no effective youth development scheme because he has starved it of money and that Bradford City Holdings Ltd is some sort of scam company set up so Geoff and his co directors can cream money out of BCFC.

Jim Jefferies: Will He Fall or Is He Being Pushed?

JJ's big problem is the Ginger God. Even at 37 he is still a class act, but JJ has a power struggle on his hands that he seems intent to win. Using Stuarts age as a tool its a battle he can't win, because despite JJ's attempts to convince us, we know that Stuart's legs haven't gone and his heart pounds on stronger. His importance to the team as captain is greater than the sum of its parts.
