    After warching this again last night.

    Just wanted to say Rupp and that other clown who I wont name should be ashamed of themselves way they have treated our club since takeover.

    No respect for the history I'm 100% sure Rupp will say nothing as usual about what his plans are and will wait for the opportunity to sell or admin us.

    Also sick of hearing Mark Lawn at every home game slating owners and players constantly. All I can say is you saw fit to sell to these clowns to be honest I think lawn has got off lightly when it comes to our current state. Never forget he said on selling that these 2 could take and fund us at championship level!!! Cant even fund league1 or 2.

    Rupp says the fans deserve better but does nothing to convince us he means it.

    Under his leadership it's been a joke and I think were kidding ourselves if we think it will get better.

    Bowyer already saying about teams with higher budgets than us next season says it all. More or less saying dont expect anything from next season already..

    Mark Lawn is a fan, and like the rest of us, is entitled to have a go at players and owners on matchdays.

    The current state has got nothing whatsoever to do with Lawn either. Along with Rhodes, he sold in good faith to a wealthy owner in Rupp who along with Rahic must have convinced them they were the people to take the club forward. Not his fault the way it panned out

    Rahic fooled a lot of people. I'm not proud to say I was one of them (until I saw the light).

    They sold when the clubs stock was at its highest, best time to be a seller. What happened to the club after is only a concern of theirs because they were both fans of the club. What has happened is because of both Rahic and Rupp. Rupp is still here, he now either tells us what his plans to take the club forward are or he sells to someone who will tell us how they intend to take the club forward. At the moment we are going nowhere fast.

    Clearly your not close enough to what lawn and his associates say.

    The targeting of akpan and Anderson is nothing short of racist.

    Amd that's only a bit of what they come out with.

    Explain the reasoning I hear it every week.

    One of his box members nearly came to blows with a fan. As the fan told him to shut up about akpan. Constant slating non stop regardless of what he did.

    As I say some or most would see it as racist.

    Here what every week? Tell me what you heard. If its comments of a racist nature they should be reported to the relevant authorities and dealt with forthwith. But until you tell us what you heard we cannot ascertain as to whether the comments made were racist. Non stop slating of a player can be done without it being racist. It can be tiresome and non productive, but to be called out as racist could be construed as slander.

    I probably know Mark personally much better than you, and racist he is not.

    The constant moaning and shouting at Akpan and Anderson is not racist, unless of course you have heard otherwise, in which case spill the beans, and report it

    Basically. What he’s saying is because Mark (“and his associates”) don’t rate Akpan or Anderson and berate them every time, this suddenly means they are racist because of their skin colour. Did Marshall get the same stick off Lawn when both were involved in the club? I don’t believe so.

    @Super bantams@Super bantams should be ashamed of himself for even suggesting this on the back of fans(s) berating players. It has nothing to do with skin colour; they’ve both been poor and rightly got stick, irrespective of skin colour..!

    As for the other part of his original post, Rhodes and Lawn saw fit to sell to new owners that proved they had the finance to back us. They gave assurances they would change nothing but would invest more than Rhodes/Lawn could.

    The fact that they then did change things and (until last summer) didn’t back us financially, is hardly the fault of those that sold the club on..!

    Maybe a word in a senior stewards ear prior to the start of the game, they could then monitor the situation without getting yourself involved.

    This is a serious allegation and you have not backed this up.

    Like many others, I have found the performances of Akpan and Anderson disappointing and in judging that, I have had no interest in their skin colour.

    Skin colour isn't even something I think about when I'm watching the team and I would expect that most others are the same as me, including Lawn and his friends.

    We need to get away from this racism. The guy next to me constantly calls me a Blue nose because of my religion.
    By the way the guy next to me is a mate who i groomed into joining City. Rangers 2 Celtic 0 latest..

    It takes balls to say you got it wrong. A few on here don't have any. Respect.
