The Voice - Match preview Bradford City vs Accrington Stanley Tuesday 11th February 2025 7:45pm

I don’t think you are fully understanding what was said. I’ll listen again this morning but he said from memory .

We are in the top seven divisional budget… ( Wasn’t last year in the top six?)
Rupp had invested at least £X,000,000 extra into the CLUB ( not playing budget) this season., with salary increases taking up a substantial portion ( of ALL staff) .

I’ll listen again later , remember, it’s all in the words .

I’m open minded so no axe being ground Grumps.

 

Trev, you are having a laugh yes? It was like playing with 10 men. He didn’t offer nuisance value.

 

Divine intervention to find Oliver a new club. Worst signing since toothpaste.

 

They did say last night that they’ve moved well away from self sufficiency.

 

Again though I'll ask you. Is it the playing budget that's increased or the overall budget because if he's just putting more money in because of inflation and rising costs then it's not really what we were promised by Rupp himself.

 

Well it looks like we won’t know until the books go into Company House, whereby my very own Financial advisor @Dennis will scrutinise them with a fine tooth comb.

 

Haha, I had to think about that one, couldn't remember a Colgate playing for us!

 

That’s only because of inflation , lower income and less money generated from selling academy youngsters last season, thus warranting additional investment from the owner.
I assume , probably rightly , if he hadn’t put the money in we would have made an equivalent annual loss?( @Dennis ?)

 

I am sure you now feel elevated in your position
