    I disagree. We’ve been tanked on more than one occasion. We are worse. Some are better. MK away could have been 10.

    Please no! He absolutely did not give a shit about fans, he was only about maximizing profits and meeting Lawns objective of not just being sustainable but reducing the deficit.
    Opening up the entire stadium on an unreserved basis for an FA Cup quarter final where season ticket holders couldn’t not only get their own seat but actually couldn’t get any seat has to rank amongst the worst decisions ever made.
    I spoke to him on the phone that day and I bet his ears were still ringing hours later.

    The problem with anyone following GA is that we don’t know how he wants to play. Maybe, this is why he keeps getting sacked early.

    As others have said, let us hope that Rupp has now read the fans letters, come here and at least seen for himself how his investment is walking out of the ground, and starts to make some significant changes in the next week or so to pull it back.

    The club was bought and that’s it.
    Rahic just wanted to jump on bandwagon and be owner of a football. He had feck all money

    No intention of funding this club and this was found out very early
    Rupp had all the money and had zero interest then and none now
    The only thing puzzing is the reason behind Rupp not selling to reclaim his investment and wanting unrealistic valuation

    I really do think it’s because he doesn’t have a clue. He probably thinks someone will pay it when we all know no one will touch it.
    He knows nothing about football, he hired a CEO who knows nothing about football so will have no one who actually knows anything about the game advising him. He barely attends games so doesn’t mix with other owners so won’t have any contacts in the game. I genuinely believe he just thinks at some point things will improve and his investment will come good.

    I've seen the picture and it looks very cosy but has anyone any actual knowledge of what was said.

    Not sure about the rest of you , but Fordy definitely does not have a brain, Actually i am not certain any Bradford city fan has, you have got to be brain dead to drag yourself down there on match days.
