Well he was behind the Magic weekend and negotiated the current tv deal which was slated by some at the time but has proven a great deal in retrospect.
He was also ultimately in charge of the last UK world cup, both its successful operation and it's minimal legacy. And in many ways he was pulling a lot of the strings in the Lewis era, especially when Lewis went part time.

He's by no means got an impeccable track record but it's also not just remorseless failures.

I have seen no proof of his fingers in the processes as a positive you suggest.

Everything he is involved in seems mediocre and plodding.

Quite honestly I do not understand what people see in him.

I have met many like him though who talk a good game.

Well many fans suspected he has been pulling the strings for a long time so this just makes it official now.

I think the animosity comes from the fact that he’s been involved at some level in the decisions which seem to have turned down ‘better suited’ owners for ‘hand picked’ owners who had less than the change in their pockets which ultimately led to a further slow death. Was that a coincidence or was that to get the club / odsal / something else into his hands eventually? Who knows.

Either way, if he can stop us going bust and build a solid sustainable club then I’m sure most will accept it although it does look like we may have had to go through years of pain for the fans to play a ownership game

There is an interview with Nigel Wood on the T & A website (behind a paywall). The irony.

how many people must pay to read T&A?

talk about speaking to the few and ignoring the many.

Nigel Wood? ........
Good luck with that one. You'll need it!

If no-one paid to read the T&A there wouldn't be one. Some may say so what or even good riddance but it is the source of local news and I find it useful to keep abreast of what is happening in the Bradford area. That does of course include the different sports within the area.

People don't pay to read this website but it has existed for 21 years.

Agreed but when you click on the link you go to the T&A website and they want you to pay - end of.

The end of those kinds of companies imo.
