    With Fordy General if he is moaning (which he generally is) at least we know he is breathing.

    No.

    Just a lazy set of spineless, gutless people. And the reason Bradford is so bad.

    I'm struggling to get to grips with this, you're pushing for protesting and to get the chairmen, ceo and manager out but what happens if that's successful and there's no one to take over?
    What happens to bradford city if rupp thinks feck this I'm off?

    Nothing!! He sells the club.

    He isn’t putting money into it!

    Sorry mate can you highlight the improvements with his investment that he’s made to the club?

    Is it a fact that under his failure of ownership that this club has just gone backwards every season?

    If we are not blaming Adams for failure then now is the time to look at Rupp and Sparks. Time for them to go!

    I agree @AngryGaz@AngryGaz he has three options as far as I can see
    He could come over himself for a good few months see how things are run right the wrongs with a view to build back up then sell for as close as he can to what he paid for it (I believe he is capable) you dont amass his reported wealth if not
    He could send a "team" of analysts across to do the above for him
    He could drift along and eventually lose everything
    Whatever he does he needs to realise Mr Sparks and Mr Adams aren't going to restore the club to the position it was in when he bought it (Hoping like mad he has lost Juniors number) that would be catastrophic for the club
    Eventually he HAS to act but in the meantime we just have to settle for mid table L2 mediocrity

    You do understand that buying a football club you won’t see a queue. These things are done on the QT then when it’s nearly all done it comes out.

    Adams was brought in to take us up this season. The 3 year deal was to protect him. He’s failing already.

    Seriously, what is wrong with you?

    We need thousands on board. One person on a mission won’t make a difference.

    You step forward. We all need to step forward that’s the point.

    We all need to stop with loser mentality and letting the club walk all over us with Sparks Soundbites

    We don’t need a leader. We need to all come together.

    It’s time for it to be clear from fans that RUPP, SPARKS need to go!

    Do your car washers bring their own buckets and sponges from home and meet up outside your premises?

    It speaks volumes that said club are in the league above us…

    We are not a big job people like to believe we are. Bristol Rovers below is in the league took the same amount to Swindon yesterday which is a longer journey, our ‘massive’ following aren’t as special as people would like to believe either.

    Because we have a big ground and sell a lot of cheap season tickets and were in the top league 20 plus years a go we think city is a massive club .

    Let’s face it Adams was the best qualified manager for the job sometimes his interviews make me cringe his tactics mystify and selections baffle me. However changing managers every few months doesn’t and hasn’t worked we need to stick with him and give him time to get it right before starting again

    We’re a set of mugs though. We go in our numbers home & away and expect the rubbish. Rupp isn’t hands on but needs to be and again we expect it.

    I can only give you examples of other clubs in better positions not accepting their owner or CEO doing nothing.

    We should be forcing Rupp to say at least he’s looking to sell. We do nothing! It’s a joke really.

    A football manager gets judged on results and targets.

    He can’t even get back to back bloody wins FFS. We are wasting our time with Adams as manager.

    Adam’s was tasked to take us up this season!
