Signatures - fans forum with Stefan Rupp

I'm not angry, I'm content.

If someone comes in to buy the club with potential I'm all for it but until then I will not put any effort in to try drive out someone when we have nobody fit or better to replace him.
Driving rupp out could cause alot more damage then having him here.
So I will attend games and clap.

 

You don't seem to be able to grasp that those fans who attend games and applaud the players off have just as much right to do that as fans booing and being generally offensive, were all different and neither you or I will change them not that I want to, they pay for their season ticket and don't need any other fans permission to do as they please.

Where have I said we have a divine right to win every game........................I haven't.
There has been talk about various forms of protest and I was right behind the likes of the fly bye but I can assure you they were far different times to what were seeing now, but thankfully that boil has been lanced and is no longer at the club.
I've posted many times I wish Rupp would be more involved/hands on but from what Ryan said on the Radio Leeds sit down we know exactly where we stand with Rupp with regards taking our club forward, he aint putting his hand in his pocket.
We all want a successful club but arguing amongst ourselves will not achieve that, when your walking out at the end of the next game count to 10 when you see a fellow Bradford City fan applauding the players off rather than get wound up about it.

 

Imagine if the action forces Rupp to sell to someone who is fit and better to replace him. That's what is being proposed. I get you are a pacifist. But just sitting and waiting is no longer an option for many.

 

Imagine if there's no one to replace him

 

Will you please stop talking sense

 

Dunno why you are so negative. It's like you don't want better, You said you are content with Rupp and they way the club is being run at this time. That puts you and @Loyalbantam and @Park bantam in a distinct minority.

 

Yes, we’d have owners who wanted to be involved in football and have a shit about growing the club. Wanting to keep an owner who has no interest in the club is a bizarre one imo but each to their own. So I take it you never want him to leave now in case we get worse? If the first 8 years are anything to go by I can’t wait for the next 30…

 

Someone recently bought Carlisle, do you honestly believe that or just making pie in the sky comments for a laugh?

 

Did they try buy us?

 

We all thought Rack & Ruin were the right guys to take our club forward and at the time the majority thought it was the correct decision as both Mark and Julian had said they could not fund Championship football.
So not only do we want new owners who want to get involved but also owners who are prepared to fund the club, I'm not thinking for one minute we'll get the likes of the guys at Wrexham but I'd take owner who wants to slowly improve the club.

 

How much did they pay?
Rupp wants 8million and nothing you or any amount of protesting / letter writing will make him sell for less.

 

I hope were all in attendance Tuesday night even though we don't necessarily agree on all things Bradford City, surely we can get another 3 points from Doncaster to keep chipping away at teams above us.

 

You would have to ask Rupp that. But I get your agenda. Hoping they didn't to conclude your point. Happy with what we have got. Drifting further into 4th division obscurity. But at least you have something to clap to make you happy.

 

At the price the owner has put on us, no why would anyone? Isn’t that a lot of the fans complaints an uninterested owner who has taken us backwards and wants silly money from someone for the privilege of cleaning up his mess.

 

See my latest reply, kind of a big reason why Rupp is a dreadful owner. You keep sticking up for him and berating fans for wanting change though. Whatever makes you feel more loyal than anyone else.

 

As were debating the Rupp situation have we received any response from our custodian, or even an acknowledgement of receipt ?.

 

You see that’s where you’ve got me wrong. I’m not happy with where we are or how the club is being run but I’m not so naive to think there’s anything better lined up.
Show me the queue of potential buyers first that are desperate to buy us for the right reasons and that have millions to pump in and I’ll be the first on the plane to Germany throwing stones at Rupps windows night and day until he sells.
Until then it’s best to sit tight because things could be a lot worse. Ask Rochdale, Bury, Oldham and Scunthorpe.

 

Quite telling if there is no response. Chilling in fact. Devoid of any interest in the fans feelings and thoughts about how the club is being run.

 

An owner with no interest in the club or the fanbase. He undoubtedly knew what the package contained. It was all over the Internet and social media. No doubt Sparks will have updated him too. He doesn't have the decency to address the fans regarding the failure to honour his pledge, about getting us back to where he found us. I can't believe we have supporters that are happy to have an owner who shows so much contempt for his biggest asset. If he ever sets foot back in the stadium, I hope those of us unhappy with the situation let him know how we feel, over those who are pleased to see him.
