    Yes, I am sure you are correct. I was just wondering if he did return, there might need to be a gap between him leaving Rochdale and coming back to us, as there was when he went in the opposite direction.

    So is this wishful thinking? You know this absolutely! Not something on the lines of ‘I really really think this has happened’, so it will have?

    Quite amazing the damage that's been done in such a short space of time.

    If we can just avoid the drop this season and look forward to a fresh start for 19/20.

    The Telegraph piece said he previously owned 22% of the club. That suggests to me he doesn't any longer, I could be wrong though.

    Or maybe he just made mistake after mistake and people's opinions of him being the bogey man were wrong. Thats my big issue with all of this, that people presume or assume things about a person with almost no evidence.

    Rahic is a clear salesman and not a business leader, I never saw him as being the sinister, greedy businessman type that everyone painted him as. He is just a big flop of a football club chairman.

    It says this, ‘City's majority shareholder said: "The time for change has come and this marks the beginning of a new chapter for the club.’ https://www.thetelegraphandargus.co.uk/sport/17275024.rahic-leaves-bradford-city/

    That is not quite the same as Sole Shareholder!

    The question of whether or not Rahic has sold his shares is crucial because, for me, if he hasn't sold them then he is still here and he hasn't gone. There is a worrying silence on this at the moment.

    Having gone through the WOAP article in respect of his CV, then he seems to have moved around a bit and there is no evidence of him managing a business to a significant success. https://widthofapost.com/2018/10/29/what-can-rahic-and-rupp-still-achieve-from-owning-bradford-city/

    My ultimate take on this whole fiasco, in as few words as possible is this...

    Rahic convinced rupp that he knew football, rupp believed he could be a silent partner more or less. Rahic knew that for every £1 he asked from rupp he would need 20p of his own to invest. He didnt have a lot more to invest after putting all his money into his dream. When the mistakes began to happen, his inexperience and lack of own money to mitigate the errors was absent and like any other failing business one bad judgement then leads to several more.

    Rahic is not a bad guy and is probably a great person to go for a pint with. But so woud Gazza and i wouldnt want him running the football club.

    I think the parted company with and the damning words from Rupp are pretty conclusive.

    The official City site now only lists one Board member - Alan Biggin when before it included Edin as Chairman. Previously Mrs Rahic was on as Financial person but that position is no longer listed so I think this confirms that she has also gone.
