    The search for a buyer is now critical.

    I was led to believe Stefan considered pulling out altogether last season, and told that would cripple us completely. If that is the case, it shows Stefan is not afraid to cut his losses, and it shows the asking price is not a legitimate barrier to this club being allowed to move forward under an alternative chairman.

    Stefan, accept whatever offer comes your way, and get out of our club.

    I'll keep my message simple. Just like I have for months.

    Rupp out.

    I think its unfair on Stefan..

    If he putting money in to sort the mess Edin made then fair play.

    I'd want him to be more proactive with our club and us fans. If he was we might have been where we are.
    And fraud wouldn't have got the job for a 3rd time.

    It’s McCall that should have been sacked. Stefan leaves all football decisions to his CEO and funds the losses with interest free loans.

    Yesterday I watched the Tranmere Bracket match, and guess who was front and centre giving an honest appraisal of his team?

    The chairman.

    Owning a club then letting bad decision after bad decision take place IN YOUR NAME is not good enough.


    He isn't running the club, simple as that, and right now we need someone running this club.

    It isn't good enough to leave the decisions to a string of hopeless CEO's.

    If he isn't going to make the decisions then it's time to go

    There are plenty of owners and investors in business who don't take any active role in running the business, and there are plenty of chairmen in football who are exactly the same.

    The problem is the vacuum in terms of who is running the club on a day to day basis, and yes Rupp is responsible for that.

    Even if we give Sparks the benefit of the doubt on the non-football side of things there is noone with the right skills, knowledge or experience in a senior role on the football side and that urgently needs to be addressed by Rupp if there's noone he can realistically sell the club to.

    Exactly what I'm saying.

    Rupp isn't running the club, and under him no one else is either.

    He has to go even if another hands off chairman takes AS LONG AS someone is running the god damn club.

    On Friday coming, it will be two years to the day that Rahic went.

    Since then, it's on Rupp.

    Jenkins in by January.

    I want to hear Jenkins say he doesn't want the club before we let that go.

    I don't want the guys at the club saying no, I want him to say categorically no. Then we find a candidate that says yes.

    It’s been on rupp since the day he bought the club . Just because he let his mate run us into the ground ,the blame still lies at his door

    FG. I don't disagree. He was happy in his video with Rahic, at Fleetwood, at Wembley. In good times, in bad times....

    Whenever the troubles at the club are mentioned and Rupp questioned, it seems that a portion of our fanbase still blame the era of Rahic. Two years on, no I'm not having that.
    I've not for the best part of 6 months.

    He knows nothing about football though so he leaves it to people who do. He won’t know that Keith Hill was available a few weeks ago, or the Cowleys are unemployed. Or even that McCall is a crap manager, or that the likes of Rhodes , Sparks are obsessed with McCall.

    The Jenkins ship has sailed, I doubt it was ever in the harbour.

    I don’t think Jenkins would want to be at a club like ours it seems like a poisoned chalice. The club is rotten from the top all the way to the shower of shite we see every week! For me personally the contract extension may be to boost the morale of the coaching and playing staff. However, if the results don’t change I would definitely have a look at Nigel Adkins last at Hull. Experienced in football league and could be someone to bring long term progress to the club again.

    Ruup allegedly wants £10,000,000 for the club or he won’t sell. The man is deluded, at this moment in time it’s worth around £1,000,000 at the most. If we go down it will be considerably less.

    He's lost his investment because he mismanaged it.

    He had to let it go.

    It's a bad purchase, time to cut his losses

    Seriously we have a problem here.

    We've a owner that is just acting like the club is some retirement fund that hes not bothered about.

    I thought he would have learnt from the Edin mistake but its got worse. It's like the club is a headache.
