Bulls Board Meet Today


The Club's Board of Directors are meeting today, Bulls News understands.

Rumours have swirled over the weekend of an investment deal being on the table to be ratified at the meeting, after David Keyte spoke of "imminent cash investment" on Thursday morning.

There is less than two weeks to the Conference AGM, and the league chiefs are expected to be wanting assurances over the future of the club ahead of any decisions at that meeting.

One potential name that has resurfaced over the weekend is that of former Arsenal and Crystal Palace player Brian Sparrow. The 51 year old was named as a suitor by the Non-League Paper nearly two months ago.

Sparrow, whose experience includes two spells as manager at Crawley during their part-time days, coached at Palace and Brentford before a two year stint in China under the stewardship of former Birmingham City vice chairman Sammy Yu, a former Hong Kong footballer and TV commentator. 

Yu joined the Blues as part of Carson Yeung's takeover but left shortly after the deal was completed. He has since tried to buy the club from Yeung following his arrest on fraud charges, and also made moves to buy Sheff Weds last summer.
