'Project Big Picture' would probably give Rupp even less reason to sell. The salary cap keeps player costs low, and there's a chance of more money flowing down the leagues from the PL. Through sheer chance, we could actually end up being a profitable business for him.

 

Do you realise without a viable alternative that would leave us very much in the sh_t

 

That plan no longer exists

 

My opinion. My entitlement.

Im not advocating for SR just to leave us, without new owners in place. Nothing against Rupp the man.

Rupp out.

 

As good as parky was and you can’t knock him he relied heavily on the market being open all the time mainly for us. Our squad was always good quality but very small. If we got an injury we got short term players in to fill the gap.
Not knocking it but wonder if he would have as much success here under this newish transfer window model

 

The PL redistribution for the current premier league clubs means that the rest of the prem only get another million quid a season more based on this seasons media income. But with that they lose all voting rights forever. If it’s passed and they accept it that are clueless

 

What do you mean by very good? The club going backwards has happened firstly under him being the major shareholder and then as full owner. Rupp apparently filling these financial holes is beneficial first and foremost to him, if he doesn't he loses out big time. He can't just walk away, there's no assets left to offset his losses. Let's not forget the McBurnie money more than offset the financial black holes.

 

Regression. Poor team. No communication. Mcburnie.

The club will go nowhere under him.

Rupp out.

 

Just 8 clubs between us and oblivion...

 

That's a bit extreme to be fair, especially considering a fair amount of them have played 2 more games and only a small return from those 2 games would increase the league position dramatically.

 

I was primarily referring to Ryan Sparks’ quotes and praise of Rupp in preseason about putting extra money into the club after the early curtailment of last season.

 

Peterborough are an ideal template for what we could/should be doing.

 

Holes Rahic created... but granted Rupp should have paid more attention.

Rhodes and Sparks appear to be running what you call the operational side at the moment.

 

They’re still in League 1 though ;-)

 

Which way do you think they'll most likely escape? Up or down?

 

Mid-table

 

I know, win both our games in hand and we will be 1 point behind the mighty Morecambe.....

 

Where do you expect to be this season? 1 point behind Everton?

 

We can only hold on to that dream......
