    And jack tordoff is possibly wealthier then Rupp but also has a very large interest in the club whereby Rupp doesn’t give a feck about football.
    Why hasn’t JT bought the club in the past?
    Ken Morrison is wealthier than all of them put together yet due to his lack of interest has never invested a penny.

    Ken passed away in 2017. Jack is now aged 83 and despite his experience as a driver crashed his Porsche in July. https://www-yorkshirepost-co-uk.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/news/car-dealership-boss-crashes-porsche-outside-pub-in-yorkshire-village-1-9244237/amp?amp_js_v=a2&amp_gsa=1&usqp=mq331AQECABYAQ==#aoh=15424605145718&amp_ct=1542460549075&csi=1&referrer=https://www.google.com&amp_tf=From %1$s&ampshare=https://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/news/car-dealership-boss-crashes-porsche-outside-pub-in-yorkshire-village-1-9244237 Perhaps trying to takeover City is now something for a younger person?

    Thought we were agreed that we only paid peanuts and it was all bonus related under edin?

    Maybe you’re right but how about rather than taking over, simply investing some of his legacy to something that has been a massive part of his life.

    True, except his ‘cousin’ who’s probably the highest earner sending all his cash back to family in the motherland

    That doesn't answer my question though, as to why you think Rupp would allow us to go into admin.

    Yes, but you've forgotten the basic principle - never let the facts get in the way of a few good fairy stories! ;)

    I'd also like to understand which of our players are on 3-4 year contracts as has been stated. A majority of the current contracts lapse at the end of this season; most of the remainder lapse 12 months later and there are three - O'Connor, Wood and Staunton(who?) - whose contracts lapse the following season.

    I thought I had answered....he won’t want to throw good money after bad, he’ll just cut his losses and walk away with no guilty conscience whatsoever and get on with his life

    Are you saying Kai is the highest earner at City and he’s related to Edin? I find that hard to believe.

    That's so disappointing, but hardly surprising most saw from the off the lad was not up to league one football.

    If that is how he feels, then surely the best option for him would be to sell the club

    Believe what you want but why else is he here on a 3 year deal? He’s the worst CF I’ve ever seen in a city shirt in the 35 years I’ve been watching

    His contract runs out in June next year, which makes it an 18 month contract.

    I like the idea that Bruenker is here purely as an underhand way of rinsing money out of the club. Reminds me of the 9/11 conspiracies.
