The fans need reassurances of some sort. Regardless of the nature of football as a business (unlike any other), they need fans to part with cash and buy season tickets, but who in their right mind is going to buy this product at the moment? You’d have to be absolutely mad (I bought 4 on Monday, looking for a psychiatrist this Monday).bantamdave41, rmbenson007, CT Bantam and 3 others like this. -
The club is on course to lose £2M this year, but this shortfall is being funded by Stefan Rupp who continues to invest capital to meet the shortfall. He has invested significant funds to buy the club and continues to do so.Nick_W_, bantamdave41, vladimir and 2 others like this. -
I tell you what @Fordy117, set up your own club, call it what you like then take on the likes of Wright and co which you have obviously rate, it would do City a massive favour! If you can’t see the quality in Butterfield and would prefer Wright then there is no hope for you. He nearly had a fit when Bowyer asked him to get changed. ‘What me’? ‘ I don’t play I just ponce about in training and get paid’

First of all, I admire you coming on here as you are currently part of the club. It is appreciated that you and Roger Owen come on here at all , is at issue with any lack information coming out of the club from the heiracy ie Either the current 100% shareholder Rupp or his de faco club Spokesman and current CEO Julian Rhodes.
The distinct lack of information coming from either of these people in the current state of the club can only fuel these rumours in our current plight.Gardscoigne, Fordy117, bantamdave41 and 2 others like this. -

In terms of moving grounds can I take you back to PP's first season when we escaped relegation to the Conference. If we had been relegated I can tell you the morning after the last game would have seen BCFC cease to exist so if you're thinking of two relegations now and a climb back, in my humble opinion, forget it, not going to happen.
But as they all say, where there's life there's hope and whilst we all possibly think hope is all we have, lets cling on to that. Glenn and I will continue to work where we can, Glenn more at the sharp end than me. Mark Roebuck, another Ambassador is also on board with some IT work and along with Julian we are trying. We're not done yet and behind all that Stefan is still supporting as he promised whilst, as Glenn has suggested, possibly looking at new investment.
Keep the faith, I know it's hard.City loyal, boltonroad, Pineapple Salesman and 1 other person like this. -

Additional to that, though, this season is almost done. The bigger concern is regarding next season. We’re certainly going to have a vastly reduced income versus a not so vastly reduced expenditure.
Without going into detail, how concerned should we be on that note? Unless there is significant change and / or investment, the chances of rebuilding next year, or even the future of the club, must surely be at risk?BradfordBanter, Bantamsteve and Fordy117 like this. -
The richest Bradfordian that springs to mind is Jack Tordoff, even he isn’t rich enough to sustain losses like that.
So yes, endless meanderings in the bottom two divisions with the odd short stay in the Championship unless someone comes in and spunks a shit load of cash. Had we got promoted two years ago, Millwall lost £3.8m in their first season, find an investor for City prepared to lose 75 grand a week. Notts County are pissing that away in 92nd place.
Something needs to change because at the moment there are six clubs fighting for four CL slots, a bunch treading water in PL, anotjer bunch fighting to stay in or get promoted to the PL and the rest of the 92 clubs bumbling along with an odd day in the sun whilst mainly reliant on an idiot with more money than sense to fund it. It’s shit and not getting better.Bantam@{Lancs}, Pineapple Salesman and vladimir like this. -

Get his money back? Championship in a few yrs?! Hilarious.
Has anyone seen the state of our club? Feels like there’s only one way we are headed. Especially with Rupp at the helm, hands on or hands off, he’s clearly one part of the massive problem this club has.Storck and rmbenson007 like this.
