    He's not got the type of personality to admit he got so many things wrong. He wouldn't listen to more experienced people back then, so he's unlikely to admit to his failings now. Thankfully, he was discovered before he destroyed the club totally.
    He's probably got the talk, which counts for too much these days, but his performance doesn't live up to his mouth.

    Dirty Twit, one disalushioned guy. Maybe he needs a catch up with former staff and players he drove out of our... the fans and not his club.

    Without sounding like @Fordy117@Fordy117 the club needs to move on and hopefully they are. We have made so many mistakes since and will probably continue to do so.

    I know the club haven’t commented but you get the idea.

    He`s full of Bullshit, that's how he got Rupp to Bankroll him. People like him just jump on the backs of others so they can carry him.

    He must be well brassed off in his Baildon bunker (assuming that’s where he lives as others have suggested) knowing the club is back on the up and getting behind those in charge again.

    Knowing his personality though, he’ll probably look at the director of recruitment and coaching model and take credit for it!

    The most plausible of his claims is that Stefan sacked Stuart, and that seems extremely unlikely.

    Talking of his young head coach and head of recruitment model. I wonder if he had given Collins more time it would have turned out better than going down the route of dinosaur managers?

    He’s right in the fact that blaming relegation on him was absurd. We have proven in just January that you can turn things around with some smart decisions and decent recruitment. That didn’t happen after Edin left.

    He is clearly one of, if not the, most deluded men in the entire history of deluded men. An absolute first class W Anchor

    Was W. Anchor a confederate general?

    Probably. They went few quite a few, although to be fair they managed to keep the same man at the top unlike us union boys who went through at least half a dozen before Abe saw sense and appointed me.

    Yes he is right in that he was not to blame for relegation, Rhodes was entirely to blame for that,

    Seeing as Collins is still playing football at aldershot I’ll disagree. The whole recruitment strategy stank.

    Edin is a complete muppet but he is 50 per cent to blame. The other is still at the helm and as such, has seen us slump to 18th in the khazi league.

    But of course that seems to be overlooked time and time again. This club has so far to go to just return to level ofthe summer of 2016.
    We might be looking at may 2022 just to return to league 1. Key word, might. Then we have to become a credible contender for league 1 promotion....

    6 years of Rupp progression:relieved:

    Rupp out.

    Nah the guy infected the club with poor players on long contracts with high wages. Then he is shocked the club suffered relegation?? We couldn’t afford anyone!
