    Let’s be fair the club is in a dire situation at all levels. The size and potential of Bradford City is massive but need real professionals in charge and to work out exactly what is needed to take this club forward because let’s be honest here to,see the likes of Sutton and FGR right at the top of the table just makes a mockery of the running of a club that has a massive fan base and facilities . It’s getting beyond a joke tbh

    Adams is the wrong fit for this club, and Sparks isn't up to it. Both roles need a change.

    The club needs people behind the scenes who have been in the football industry for sometime and not just in sport . The smaller the club the more important it is. Also an owner who takes an interest in his investment and when times are like they are now needs to be more hands on

    We all thought the correct BIG CHANGES had been made at the start of this season and look how that's turning out ?.

    Here's a serious question now you've told us all what's required can you tell us just where you would start, do you or anyone you know have the sort of finance to buy Rupp out, I'd think he has to be bought out before any of the other things can be done ?.

    Agree, Stuart has suffered enough. Became a scapegoat for all the behind scenes problems

    Not all of us Dave
    I thought he was the wrong appointment from the off
    Lack of ambition to keep Morecambe in L1 (they hardly protested when he left under dubious circumstances)
    and a quick view of how things ended at Plymouth and Ross County says it all
    Seems a bit pointless bringing in a new manager when our chairman isn't in the slightest bit interested and our CEO is a novice trained by junior, no football men at the club, it's an endless list in all our years as fans we have never been in such a hopeless situation

    Am and always have been for getting rid ASAP but until Mr Rupp and possibly Mr Sparks have gone I can't see anything being different with the next man sad state of affairs oh for a win on the Euromillions

    If sparks fires Adams that’s basically sparks sacking himself. Rupp will fire the bullet at him.

    Remember the list of games that someone posted a month ago? How’s that looking? Most had us down for a win against Harrogate. Dunno why as they were on a decent run at the time. Sadly I can’t see us winning the next two either,

    Rupp has to be the change for me. It has to be at the top. It doesn't matter who the CEO or manager is with him at the helm, our fortunes won't change until we have have an owner who's interested, ambitious and willing to back the 2 below him with the tools to create a squad good enough to challenge. If we're simply self sufficient, we'll stay middle of the road.

    Rupp stated that 'he'd right the wrongs of Rahic, Bradford fans deserve better and he'd restore us to where we were before they came in." Hot air, nothing more. He's done nothing of the sort to even start this process, nevermind going above and beyond. Kept us afloat during Covid (only to protect his investment I suspect) but that's it. Self sufficient and sustainable.

    We're treading water. Nothing will change whilst he's in the hotseat

Nothing effing cowards thousands going home and away to follow these do they care ????? No they couldn’t care less so Fook Adams and Fook a bunch of pee taking twats who ain’t got the heart to battle for a brilliant fan base ....... I’m done with it now
