Oliver McBurnie

He has backed us

 

Doesn't mean they'll be any better, the grass isn't always greener mate. Just as likely to end up with a worse owner as we are a good owner. Plus I don't think Rupps all that bad. Naive about the industry and with Rahic, 100%. But he doesn't seem like a shithouse in the Ken Anderson or Duchatelelelelet mould, which is about as good we can realistically hope for from an owner who isn't just a rich fan. He;s backed Bowyer with a more than adequate budget for this level, if you can't get promoted from L2 off 2.5 million you definitely don't deserve to go up

What really stood out to me was how quickly he bombed Rahic out once he learnt the true picture. Correct me if I'm wrong but it was a matter of days (not heart) or a week or two from the fans going to see him and Rahic getting booted out. That shows to me he was guilty of trusting rahic to run his investment too much as opposed to anything more nefarious.

 

He's not daft, he will have known about the McBurnie situation. At least hang around long enough to get the cash back off that deal. he will have factored this into his spending.

 

Would somebody like to tot up how much Mr Rahic has cost this club financially? I have no problem with money going to pay the debt. Nevertheless he has cost us relegation and all the related expenses, lack of sponsorship, decreases in ST sales etc., now money we could have used to strengthen the team also has to be used on contracted players that are not up to standard.

On the plus side we are able to pay off the debt.

 

I think it’s only @Fordy117 that thinks Rupp should put up the cash or clear off.

And nobody takes Fordy seriously anyway

 

To who exactly?

 

Grow up

 

He knows who i am so mind your own business.

 

Yes we need to unearth another player now who can generate some income for the club as in the last few years we have pulled in monies from these young players that has helped the club stay on its feet financially. In this latest transfer the money generated from it was effectively wasted by Rahic as it will be have been used to offset the debt he built up Mr Rupp had provided to the club.

 

Where is @Yorkshire baller ?

Has the club made any official comment regarding our new record transfer fee?

 

Stupid comment Fordy.

Go ask Bolton and Bury fans how their search for a buyer is going.

 

Is it his dad with that user name now?

 

Whilst it's admirable that Rupp has backed the club I'm not sure how he can possibily redeem himself until we're back playing where were before him and his pal turned up.

 

Except @Paul , apparently.

 

Or older brother .

 

Change from what I can remember from previously then

 

Seen the McBurnie thing time and time again.

Newcastle, Coventry, Charlton...
