    You'd better get used to it. There's another 3 months to go before the new season starts!

    It's not long ago that the rumour was that Rupp was on the verge of putting the club into Administration. The next was that he has already put millions of his own money into the club to fill a huge black hole. And now he is rumoured to be selling the club for squillions of pounds to somebody or other. And I guess it won't be long before there is another rumour from the twitter world of something else involving the future of our club. But surely all of these rumours cannot be true?

    I know where my money would be if I were a betting man ... although I suspect the selling price will be a long way off some of the nonsense being discussed!

    Expressions of interest are never far away....

    But some City fans believe no one will EVER show an interest in City, and that's why we should have just got behind the German owners instead of planning flyovers FFS...

    While I'm sure there's nothing in this ridiculously late story, I have no doubt there are buyers out there - and just because i cannot name them does not mean they can't possibly exist.

    That article took two journalists to write. Maybe the £10m came from £5m each.

    If he has actually put a £10m price on the club that implies that he doesn’t want to sell

    Serious question .......... Why ?

    I could have understood your comment say three/four months ago. However, Rupp has backed Bowyer as he claimed he would.
    Both Rhodes and Rupp entrusted Bowyer with the budget - And the squad has improved ........ Just not enough to mount a title winning challenge.
    Will Rupp back Bowyer further come January ? That is the real question, I guess, and may also be an indicator to Bowyers future in May ?

    I think most Bury fans would disagree.

    Interesting out with the new in with the old, if it’s Mark Lawn it only took us 6 years to get out of league 2 last time so let’s not pretend the good times will automatically come flying back. Unless Bowyer can do a Parky.

    That said I’d welcome it, I doubt Rupp wants to be here, and that’s the last sort of owner we need. So yeah not bad, but I hope people don’t think we’ll just be back in the league 1 playoffs in a couple of seasons. Lawn just hasn’t that sort of money to undo this mess.

    I said we were up for sale months ago problem is though we then gave a manager a 2 year deal and he isn't picking his own staff which is an issue.

    True or not Mr Rupp has a decision to make and quickly. Pile more money in or feck off. Simple really.

    This isn't true... Something is happening. What it is isn't quite clear but there are talks happening.

    Well I hope Rupp sales it and feck off.

    It's been a disgraceful ownership from day 1.

    Sure he is is a good person but we don't need a good person in charge we need a serious owner who really wants to drive Bradford City forward.
