    So let's forget the previous 12 months from McCalls sacking, I have no problem looking in the mirror or sleeping come to that.

    Let's just hope that Rupp can look past this flyover as the last thing we want is for him to decide to leave. Although he's not splashed his cash around much this is the first time we've actually an owner with his own money. Quite like the thought of Edin out. Julian running the club. Hopkin running the squad and all backed by Rupp who finances everything with some well needed investment over the next few seasons now he has a team in place at the club he can trust.

    There are things currently going on that this will damage including a possible new investor.

    This is the truth. I have given a lot of information to the organiser of this flyover. When you were all first talking about it I was completely ambivalent about it but things have changed. Make no mistake if it happens today it will harm the club. I am not a bullshitter @Bronco@Bronco

    No s**t Sherlock, not all Bradford City fans frequent this forum (maybe they should) so I'd say your correct with that comment.

    Rupp never was the problem, it was the deluded egomaniac ‘that knew football.’ Rupp needs to pick his business partners more wisely next time.

    So as part of the 64, you are implying that a decision reached weeks ago about crowdfunding, idealogy and the event postponed for 3 weeks, ( with knowledge of the event considerable at local level ) is not understood and considered by not only SR but a possible new investor.

    I have no doubt, ER and SR will be fully aware of today's action. So why would actions that are in the public domain be so possibly damaging?

    Thank you.

    Flyover is off, Air Ads have been paid, full refunds will be available to all contributors.

    We could even pay for another flyover - but with my apologies, with everything going on there was too big of a risk to the club.

    We néed to have some form of discussion about what comes next, but for now, it's postponed...

    Hope people understand, I don't take this decision lightly and I know it's not my money to do this with.

    I understand you sentiments @JonButterfield@JonButterfield, and don't feel guilty about the situation, can I suggest the monies refunded got to the Bradford Burns Unit, if most are in agreement ?.

    @JonButterfield@JonButterfield I respect your decision as you clearly have more knowledge than I. You have spoken in a similar manner to that of @City-since-67@City-since-67 with regards to damaging the club.

    I hope for the good of the supporters and the club that this isn't some poor threat and that tangible results will be observed sooner than later. In response, what do you think on my latter statement?

    As for the monies contributed, please pass mine to The Burns Unit.

    Well I don't think it will harm any prospective investment, why should it?
    It is directed at the current owners and shows that we are passionate about our club.
    That can only show any investor that we care about our club and will fight to maintain its survival.
