    Good start - wants to buy the stadium and in talks with Gibb. Part of the "strategic future of the club"

    Thinks the "owner" is willing to sell VP and Rupp has the money to buy it. Possible progression in the next month.

    Willing to invest in the budget. Promotion is the aim (obviously !!). Still wants to own the club, been through bad times and owning a club is like a marriage, you have to stick at it, and has a responsibility for the club and to the people and doesnt want to give it up.

    Absolutely not actively looking for a buyer, but will consider if someone comes along with deeper pockets than him.

    Nice to read he was angry about the run of four games that cost us vital points. Doesn't take much to give fans and insight. I understand the point about not wanting to be in the spotlight but even in this one interview he's given a sense of how he feels about things which is an improvement.

    A lot of tyre kickers around in terms of buyers.

    Sounds genuine.

    But actions speak a lot louder than words.

    Unsurprisingly, his English is much better than Sparks has made out.

    Rupp sounds in balls deep now. Bantam progressivism at its finest.

    Let’s hope he buys back the ground successfully and encouraging that he wants to own a training ground as well but concentrate on buying the ground first.

    Good news about the ground, hopefully it comes to a positive conclusion and it is added to the clubs assets to be sold whenever that may be.

    Q: "You've been in charge for six years now. When you took over said we'd be in Champ in five years - like to know where you think we'll be in next five years?"

    Yes positive stuff, but I can’t figure out why the pension fund would wish to sell its cash cow. I just don’t get it to be honest.

    Does Gibb know he's having conversations about selling
    Why would he sell it's a money spinner for his pension fund
