    Rhodes needs to go.

    Rupp needs to sell up.

    Bowyer needs to go!

    I agree with you... big changes required

    Not sure a helicopter could fly a banner, mate?

    If it can, it wasn't something I've ever been involved with!

    Rhodes is old deadwood and we need fresh ideas. Rupp is at least sticking his cash in, for now, no idea on his long term plans though, unless I’ve missed something.

    @Dennis@Dennis said he hasn't covered any debt or put in any money as yet.

    Rhodes acting like when he owned the club. I agree we need fresh ideas now to take us forward. Giving Bowyer two years was a massive mistake.

    What’s your reasoning behind that idea?

    I recall buying into the German's spiel, a Bradford City ethos running right through the club, an attack based philosophy providing an entertaining playing style with an acceptance that defeat would sometimes be a by-product. Ace, seeya Parky.

    2020 and the club is back in the basement and treading water, on the cheap too, it's just like when I first started going 40+ years ago, a garbage team playing garbage football, on a garbage pitch......in Div4.

    All can go, manager, players, owner, CE, everybody.

    I can see the logic in that reasoning.

    A tad drastic perhaps?

    At least you still attend games I believe? What would getting rid of the manager, players, CEO and everybody actually achieve?
    That.s why I suggested the response was a tad drastic?

    The only time we've ever remotely looked ambitious was under Big Geoffrey, the stadium being a lasting legacy of his tenure. yet i've read some on here who would rather not have gone through that period, instead enjoying the treading of water constantly for 30 odd years. As we stand we a level below the likes of Fleetwood and Accrington on the field, off the field there is no appetite to take this club forward. I admire clubs like Fleetwood and Peterborough who work to a long term strategy, only this week i see the Peterborough board in Hungary researching possible new stadium design and a recent £500,000 young signing getting rave reviews from the fans. Where's our ambition?

    I do.

    It wont , but I think I just have the same frustrations as Abbo & there is just about no-one at the club to hang your support on either in the heiracy or the players.
    As he was, I was too taken on by the German revolution and what a retrograde step this has been for the club both on and off the field

    I agree that there is a distinct lack of any positivity from the club ATM.

    GB reels out the same mantra.

    The football is appalling to watch.
