    Does Rupp look at the table? Does he know how far down we are? I don’t believe we’ll go down, however, it’s a bad place from which to start planning next season…

    How is it going too far? Are you aware of the activity happening on the T&A comments section and the blatant puppet accounts that are clearly run by Sparks? In fact you only have to look at around page 2/3 of this thread to see the start of the puppet accounts coming in. There are blatantly a number of accounts that are being run to make not shed a positive light on RS.

    Pointless writing to Sparks. Rupp needs to look at the situation. If he still owns the club next season, we will definately leave the EFL and he will lose everything.

    No he isn't linked to Ryan Sparks or the club. He is a wum who has been a member of this site previously and likes to share his 'contoversial' thoughts to create unrest. If he continues in this same vein, he'll become a former member once again.

    Best ignored in the meantime.

    When you put it like that, we owe captain admin a big thanks don’t we :-( Grooming him for the role, saving the club a few hundred grand by not employing a proper CEO, then Rupp not supporting Sparks after as we needed.

    Typical City, doing it on the cheap, yet we are millions worse off in reality due to our regression under an incompetent leader.

    We’re still employing Trueman, a failed manager, and prob only just finished off paying off McCall and Adams! Paying more staff out of the club than in it!

    I've no idea whether this is true or not but if it is it's disgraceful behaviour on his part. Is there any light the mods can throw on the matter?

    Think he’s doing alright for himself though and every successful person can jump into a job and quickly realise it’s not for them and the chemistry isn’t right - happens often in business - doesn’t mean either party is rubbish - just means they got it wrong

    Go read the T&A more closely in the comments section - it’s so obvious

    I’m not sure you’re not barking up the wrong tree here, puppet accounts is a bit far.
    My son has a Twitter account, The Paraders, and has been accused of being Sparks or Sparks’ puppet by the City Vent guys - for daring to say things they might not agree with.
    The stupid thing is, he’s in the camp of it has to change.
    The club is a mess, I’m very much in the Sparks and Rupp have to move on camp, but conspiracy theories are a bit far fetched

    Puppet accounts for someone who works in social running them through Hootsuite or one of the many multiple social account decks is easy and for someone who worked for a social agency the management of multiple accounts via friends and old colleagues isn’t a big stretch as he would have done it for many of his clients in the past

    It’s doable, it’s possible, it’s feasible.
    But I’ve seen this accusation thrown at various people when it couldn’t be further from the truth

    No, I don't read the T&A comments section and generally find the T&A website unusable.

    No,of course not.
    Never expected to get a response

    “His door is always open” is just another empty comment from our wonderful CEO.

    Add it to all the rest.

    Give the guy a break. He's achieved his dream job and all he gets for it is grief.

    It is but more as an exercise for his ego than anything else from what i've been told by folk who've been and taken up that offer.

    You're missing nothing, when I'm getting bored on here with reading some posters comments I read those on the T&A and quickly return to Bantam Talk.
