Some comments sound as if we're being run badly and on a shoe string budget. Which clearly isn't the case. Personally think fans should be less negative and look at the greatness the club is doing moving us forward. I don't get why people are hating on the Americans, what have they done wrong? Did they dig deep when we need it in Jan? Yes It's like people are complaining about things that haven't even happened yet. Assuming the worse when there record has actually been a positive for the club. Imagine if the rumours are true and we beat West Ham in singing Inheancho.... Apparently an attacking midfielder from turkey is a done deal. What else is being worked on in the back round... Who knows.. But we do know Parish works with a huge amount of privacy surrounding him which is for the good of the club to get things done without interference from other clubs and agents. Why why why we dig him or the Americans out I have no clue. But it's not very supportive to read IMO. So very well put and I agree entirely. Sadly your surrounded by a load of panicking morons

We need to realise that we do not have the revenue of the big clubs in the division and yet we can still attract some very big names to the club. We also have a fan as a chairman who has sworn never to let the club go back into the mess it has been in before. So as far as I can see we should be very happy with how we are doing and be patient as I'm sure Steve & Co will get it right.
Some people are like Slinkies … not really good for anything, but you can’t help smiling when you see one tumble down the stairs. |

the big miss , from big Sam departure is his sport science fitness programme. Let's hope at the very least there a manager in place for pre season. That starts in 2 to 3 weeks. If not big Sam set a fitness programme in place to follow before a manager found. I have given up wanting a decision tomorrow as it were. No signs that any decision is imminent. Main thing is, surely, is to get a manager anda coaching team in place for preseason in early July?

Good post Goldfinger,add Tompkins to the list and that's 7 players who have not been at the club 1 year.

This is pretty spot on. To get some perspective think of where we were a few years ago and look at us now. Respect has to go both ways and were a club not a fan group. There is a difference. Being frustrated is natural but we dont know everything and we have to trust the board on their track record. For the moaners try it you might find you feel better. Originally posted by Goldfiinger

This is exactly the sort of post that gets people rolling their eyes. GIANT gaping holes is way over the top. Do we need strengthening? Yes. Is our first XI terrible? Absolutely not. 'The past is the past' is a complete cop out as well. The past is the only evidence we have to go on, and the evidence so far with managerial appointments is that we take our time but people are generally happy with the result. We're a 'rudderless ship' who've already secured our best player to a massive contract extension that will see him here for at least next year, and if he does go it will be for an eye-watering amount of money.
Employee of the month is a good example of how someone can be both a winner and a loser at the same time. |
