Bantamtalk's Flyover Protest via JustGiving

Tweeted to Parker.

 

I'm confident you will get that wish. Regardless of what he can or cannot write, I am sure his thoughts correspond with ours.

 

The rhetoric from Parker over the last couple of weeks (both in print and his tweets) seems to be very much anti Rahic and certainly not towing the club party line any more. Suspect he'll be well up for this

 

Well I was thinking less chance of disrupting the players, but after the gutless display second half they will just have to put up with it.

 

Keep up the good work, buddy. You're doing just great

 

I know the SOC1903 initiative has stated they aim to get a change at the top, but for me it's simply not clear enough. Both Rahic and Rupp need to go. It's not just a case of Rupp replacing Rahic as director of football and CEO, he has absolutely no interest in the game or Bradford City. He needs to stick to his car racing and sell up to someone with a passion for the sport and ideally the club, who have the clubs best interests at heart and will aim to stop the rot. We are in free fall. Rupps investment in six months will be worth squat. Sell now and recoup some of his outlay. Whoever takes the reigns cannot do any worse.This is heartbreaking

 

Yes the younger ones with their smartphones should record and post on as many sites as possible including BCFC twitter, Facebook, Instagram, BBC, ITV, Quest, T&A, Yorkshire Post, Pulse, Radio Leeds etc etc and German papers etc.

 

Good luck with what ever you're trying to achieve here. But do you honestly think Rahic will give a damn?

 

We updated our statement yesterday. Rahic has to go. Rupp either has to
A) appoint someone who knows what they’re doing or
B)relocate completely
Failing these, sell up.
I personally believe that B) is unlikely due to his other business interests.

 

I get your point mate I really do.
But what are we meant to do?
Just sit back and do absolutely nothing?
Wait for relegation? Wait for worse?
I'd rather try things like this in the "hope" he says do you know what? I don't need this maybe the time is right to go?

 

i think asking rump to completely re-locate as a first 'demand' may be bit too much and put him on the back foot. how about starting with a request to meet mr rupp, not mr rahic to gather what his concerns are or are not at this moment in time, what your concerns are, how you see the club going forward and why you feel you need to start such a group. as we all know, things can too easily get lost in translation or seem stronger in wording that what they actually mean to be and the last thing you want to do is alienate him completely.

 

Definitely has to be Pompey game - too many delays to the protests already. There were supposed to be gatherings before Sunderland and that never happened. Now we have the pledges ‘banked’, we have to strike whilst the iron is hot.

“Rahic & Rupp out !!”

 

4mins in? Just to reinforce one of their 1st major mistakes

 

Possibly not, but doing nothing is no longer an option. If this fly-by prompts fans to join protests, then it has worked

 

Tentative weather forecast for next Saturday is actually quite similar to this week. Warmer air clearing away with a weather front that brings colder NW winds and showers. It could be grey/dark if the front has not gone through yet but looks slightly more likely to be into the colder, clearer showery side. There looks to be about a 40% chance of it being very windy, which is something to watch out for.

 

Whilst it is flying overhead, perhaps a rousing rendition of;

Edin is a winner
He wears a winkers hat
He said that he knows football
The fecking lying Twit
He fecked the team
He fecked the staff
He even fecked McCall
He said that he knows football
But Edin knows feck all.

 

Thanks Paul.

 

Or, a huge cheer when it flies overhead with a whole-stadium rendition of "We want Edin Out" a bit like the end of the Rochdale game.

After this, we use our passion to back the boys.

 

Over the last few days, I have engaged with customers who frequent my work place. Around about 20 in total ranging from young adults to senior citizens...

With an angle on my part, I have discussed some of the idealogy around flyovers, billboard protest, flyers, boycotting of games et al. Call it what you wish and I have to appreciate the feedback but there is little wish, demand and support for such activities. In fact only 3 have genuinely agreed in such thinking...

Maybe my rhetoric has put others off when engaging in discussion? Maybe apathy? Maybe some don't care as it is just a Saturday afternoon recreational activity? Maybe some don't want to say what side of the fence that they sit on?

What I do feel is that getting 'support' for such matters as described above may be a considerable task and that maybe the minority on BT and CA whom call for such action need to be considerate of our supporter base.
