Short term aim - get promoted. Can't argue with that.
And the long term...? Anything? Plans for the academy? Training? Etc
'Destiny's a bitch', whatever the hell that means. I wonder if that's the long term strategy for his other businesses?

The sad thing is there's still plenty of people who believe he's amazing. The appointment of Hughes has given these people an excuse to back off Rupp. These interviews show us absolutely fuck all, he's a failure... yet another.

Apparently Adams had a competitive budget.
Aye, right.
The fact the fat twat seems to actually believe this scares the crap out of me.
And then we go on to ambition, but not getting carried away. Apparently getting promoted to the Championship would be getting carried away.
Fuck me, what a depressing read. My boss reckons I need to support a new team. I reckon he's right.

I despair that people read that article and are not only content with it but use it as a stick to beat the "h8tors" with. It tells us nothing and him defending his own incompetence is astounding.
Year on year regression, umpteen managers, umpteen inadequate squads of players, disgraceful transfer windows, an out of depth CEO and yet it's all the "keyboard warriors" fault.
What a fucking idiot. He's better off hiding in Germany and not speaking than coming out with this utter shit he's uttered in that interview. And as for Simon Parker giving him an easy ride...fuck me. What a journalist...

We are on track to finish as low as we ever have and yet its the keyboard warriors fault. We've been called out on the city vent twitter space for this very thing just now. Like somehow we revel in posting negativity after quite possibly the worst four years of football this club has ever seen. We should have just sugar coated everything and stuck our head in the sand cos let's face it, that's what a sizeable section of our fan base do on a weekly basis.

It’s the sort of half-arsed interview I’d expect from someone who couldn’t give a solitary fuck. We’re completely rudderless as a club with no greater ambition than making sure our outgoings don’t outweigh the incomings. There’s no plan that goes further than getting to the end of each season. It’s pathetic.

It's been about 5 or 6 years of "clapping harder" and "getting behind the club for fucks sake" and that doesn't seem to be improving us surprisingly. Perhaps a bit of footballing competence from a CEO and owner might improve us more than the main stand clapping the skin of their palms. But hey ho Stefan and Ryan are doing their best, what more could we want/need?

When your owner's idea of any long term strategy, plan, ambition or where he wants the club to be is written off as 'destiny's a bitch' we need not say any more - he's declared and shown his hand.
And that's from our 'proud custodian' don't forget.
After 6 years he has no idea what he wants for us as a club or business in a football sense -other than balanced accounts and a 'tidy' ground.

If Rupp announced he’d taken a shit on the centre spot some of our fanbase would credit him with providing manure.
