Most liked posts in thread: In defence of Stefan Rupp

I don't think for one minute things are going on behind the scenes with regards any sackings but if there is then Rupp has to do something as yet he has failed to do and that is to get outside help from someone who does actually know football.
If doing that means financing it then that has got to be seriously considered, fortunately the none footballing side is flourishing and that has to be applauded but its the product on the pitch we fans want putting right.

 

Well if being in Germany has shielded Rupp from what is going on, i do not think it does. yesterday will definitely have opened his eyes to the current plight of the club , carry on as we are and his investment will be completely gone, even counting for inflation, the club is worth half of what he paid when in league 1.
Maybe its all part of a Rhodes master plan, so he can buy the club back for a fraction of what he received.
Anyhow, how is it all going Dave.

 

You making a playing comeback then. Bionic hips and all that.

 

Be careful. A couple of years ago, Fordy, myself and a couple of others made similar comments about Rupp and a poster replied that covid had affected our brains.

 

Has David Rhodes got enough cash to buy the club, I know they cost me a lot of money when the tech bubble burst .

 

All depends on the price I suppose

 

Calm down dear.

 

I agree with this in that the lease is due for renewal in 3 years, Valley Parade and the land it sits on is not worth shit without a football club to play there.
So, Rupp or anyone else should negotiate hard and not just threaten to leave, but actually leave.
Let Valley Parade sit empty for a few seasons like Coventry did to their landlords and watch Gibb come back begging with a substantial lowering of rent or an offer to sell it back to the club.

 

They’re isn’t in terms of Bradford city since august 2016… metrics don’t lie. Sorry terrible tone deaf post and sick of these.
He’s to blame full stop!!’

 

Also Johnny Yen:

Looks like you change the nuance of your posts daily.

Rupp in! Rupp out! Rupp in! Rupp out! Tell him to do one! No, wait, don't! Now do! Don't! Do!

 

Ah, Hello Mr Flip-flop.. I cant see any change in nuance there.
Perhaps you'd like to tell us all how you didn't want MH sacking, then again you did??? Hahaha

 

"GET LOST RUPP, YOU'RE NOT WANTED - but we shouldn't tell Mr Rupp we don't want him"

You.

 

I thought the letters were to let him know what's happening and to request a meeting?

 

Well maybe, just maybe he became aware of the letters and without needing to read them decided to come over to find out what’s going on for himself.

 

Its not stronger at all WE win our games in stand 1 poiny of the play offs which simply show how crap it really is.

Not one team has impressed me this season i mean you could have picked 11 lads out of the crowd yesterday and they would have caused us problems

 

Agreed, the standard of this league is appalling. I’ve attended all 37 league games thus far and cannot honestly say there has been a single team that has impressed me.
There have been some standout one off performances from the opposition combined with our poor performance on the day that have skewed it a bit such like MK Dons and Notts County away.

 

In all of this there is one man that’s under the radar getting off Scott free here, and that’s Mark Lawn

Yes he did lots for the club with his own money but.
.
He clearly sold to the highest bidder and did zero homework on who was going to be the new owners and what their plan for the club was.
Getting a return for his investment was seemingly all he cared about.

He must have known at the time that Rupp had zero interest and was the money man only and if he didn’t, why not?
What checks he did do on Rahic?

IMO Lawn threw all fans under the bus allowing those two muppets into our club

Having an absent owner with no interest in day to day running of a business with no intention of spending a penny more than his investment, or overlooking who he employs was never going to work, and very rarely does in any business
