Most liked posts in thread: What are Rupp's Plans for City?

There seems to be only 1 person who believe's that price tag, but they were sold a pup at the time of their initial purchase

 

I don't think anyone does, not even Rupp. He is blind if he thinks the club is even worth what he paid for it. I think the point is it would take 10m to buy the club and provide the investment some are asking for....build a training ground etc

 

I don't disagree with you. My point is I can't imagine anyone prepared to make the sort of investment that would be needed to grow those assets at today's Bradford City

 

Not sure his heart has ever been in from the start, so his wallet certainly won't be

 

If you ignore his contract situation, he's probably worth 500k.

He's not young enough to command a million, and he cannot play against Championship defenders.

It hurts his value that he's scoring while on loan, rather than at his parent club, who don't need him.

 

Regarding the Malaga scenario and relating to us, would you have forgone the promotions from league 1 to the premiership and the subsequent seasons in the premiership if, in hindsight, we had known that the outcome was admin after admin?

 

Fordy, are you a descendant of Vivian Nicholson?

 

Your showing your age Tennesse B

 

this is true.

 

You're are ways good for a laugh, can you remind us all how Rahic in your words "was not far off his mater plan", you go on about assets just what assets did Rahic leave Bradford City, his master plan got us relegated to a lower league than when him and Rupp bought the club, some plan.
Go ahead @Fordy117 the floor is your ?.

 

I know what he was pointing out and it was a disaster for our club, taking monies from where it should have been spent on strengthening the first team squad.
The first sign of one of his development players scoring he gets a 3 year contract on the back of his goal against Blackpool, yes Rahic's master plan was not far off.

 

You've completely (and deliberately?) misinterpreted Fordys post. He didn't say Edins plan nearly worked, he said Edin wasn't far wide of the mark when he came up with the actual plan.

 

You need to go back and read it. Especially the line immediately before the brackets.

As I said, you've either not understood or deliberately misinterpreted.

 

The silly salaries were the thing that killed him, everything else was pretty much bang on the money. The risk on ground developments was a necessity that we are able to take advantage of to this day. As for a new owner committing some of their own money Stefan Rupp already has in his purchase of the club. Not that it will be on spending level of Richmond but BFG realised quickly that, to back up his grandiose plans and the time scale he claimed, he needed to spend big. I don't ever envisage another owner ever doing that again in my lifetime.
