    We take about a million in off field activities and sponsorship so with the TV and Premiership grant we need to sell less to break even, If we have a good season we will be rolling in it,

    Who got us into this position by letting Rahic have the freedom to cause the damage he did to the club. As you say Mr Rupp can do what he wants as the owner and his money - but the club is is a downward spiral and if he is not intetested and does not want to pour any of his money into City - then he should do the honourable thing and cut his losses.

    In almost all of your posts not owning the training ground or stadium is catastrophic and devalues the club massively.

    But in this one, it's an opportunity... Hmmm?

    I doubt it, Bradford City is just a distant memory to him, woke up one morning after a night on the beer and discovered that his signature was on some paperwork, think after that he joined the Foreign Legion to forget it all ...

    What is your logic and reasoning behind this bold yet damning statement?

    We are currently an embarrassing blip in his high performing portfolio one which he has no interest/idea what to do about, there will come a time when his accountants tell hm to "get rid" until then our club will continue to be in decline it's stalemate until then

    As I quoted at the time of their arrival at our club, Stefan made the comment his investment was worth the risk, I'm getting to sound like fordy ;).

    We are a Joke and we are in a relegation fight. Mcall has to walk if he loves the Club. Absolutely embarrassing- no goals in open play in the last 5 games. Says it all really - we really are in trouble.

    No he is responsible for where the club can be found now, financially, the position the English football league, the poor infrastructure, appointment of / recruitment of players, manager and support staff.

    We got an early Christmas present when Rahic went, came we have the same again?

    Rupp out.

    I agree. The financial climate has changed massively since he bought the Club and Covid has possibly weakened his hand further. For years, we have always scraped around for the sort of investment that we need and I guess he has seen his initial efforts bear no fruit and is reluctant to dig in further. Patience, as you say is the watchword but realistically, needle in the haystack scenario.

    I would, but as my football guru @Fordy117@Fordy117 rightly points out, no assets, no ambition :)

    Rupp still here.

    Is he one of the worst ever owners in this clubs history?

    Rupp is as bad as Edin if not worse.
