    There would be one empty seat in a chauffeur driven MG Midget
    If that was the case

    If each month delay in selling is presumably costing him about £150-200k, it’s an easier negotiation.

    No one is going to buy at the moment if Rupp is really asking for that much. And Rupp would surely take any amount as he isn't going to make money off of us anytime soon and our value is plummeting. Just more stupid off season rumors :*@

    If Rupp is asking silly money then maybe Edin isn't to fully blame after all.

    Rahic was the minority shareholder, but Rupp put far too much trust in him and gave him free regine at our club, so for that alone he has to take his share of the blame for were we find ourselves as a club.

    Expressions of interest are never far away....

    But some City fans believe no one will EVER show an interest in City, and that's why we should have just got behind the German owners instead of planning flyovers FFS...

    While I'm sure there's nothing in this ridiculously late story, I have no doubt there are buyers out there - and just because i cannot name them does not mean they can't possibly exist.

    That article took two journalists to write. Maybe the £10m came from £5m each.

    If he has actually put a £10m price on the club that implies that he doesn’t want to sell

    Serious question .......... Why ?

    I could have understood your comment say three/four months ago. However, Rupp has backed Bowyer as he claimed he would.
    Both Rhodes and Rupp entrusted Bowyer with the budget - And the squad has improved ........ Just not enough to mount a title winning challenge.
    Will Rupp back Bowyer further come January ? That is the real question, I guess, and may also be an indicator to Bowyers future in May ?
