We have had five seasons now to establish ourselves and yet still we struggle, we should and are perfectly capable of being a good average PL team, however what we lack is leadership at the top, we currently have chairman who is out of his depth, the situation we are in is because we have failed to secure cover upfront when the chairman was already fully aware that Wickham was going to be out until early next year at best and yet he allowed us to go forward with only one striker, he strings everything out to the last possible moment can't make decisions and when he does he gets a high percentage of them wrong!

Hi Den,
Hope your well.
I see your joining in and moaning about Parish.
Our club is doing well to try to compete in this league.
Parish has admitted his errors with Frank and the Strikers.
Continually going on about it achieves nothing.
As I’ve mentioned before there’s about 6 points difference between 8th and 17th come May.
So called established clubs such as Stoke and Everton are struggling at the moment.
Long way to go.
COYP.

you are correct, i will defend players & the club, maybe thats because i am realistic in my expectations, as the great homer simpson once said “aim low, acheive your goals, avoid dissapointment”

but did we have money for all the players you say after selling yannick? as havnt the club actually made a loss over the past few years, and actually borrowed from the next years PL cash cow money (risky buisness) just to keep up with the jones’ in transfer window with (i assume) the losses being made up by the owners.

also rudi we defo did not have to sign both schlupp & PVA in january we could have easily signed 1 of them and stayed up!

im not on any HOL radio agenda i just say things as i see them, but ive said every season all i want is for us to stay up on goal difference and would be over the moon with that, i think your older than me, im 35 so all ive ever known is midtable 2nd tier football with the odd flirtation with the big boys, thats why i dont expect the world, and would accept the bare minimum...im suprised you expect more than that given youve experienced curtis flemming/james scowcroft/andy morrison/tony craig/andy linaghan/frazier digby to name a few...f*** i forgot jamie pollock!

I could honestly care less about Parish admitting his mistakes. The issue is not Parish admitting or not admitting his mistakes, its Parish making those same mistakes, year after year after year. Regarding going on about it, that is everyone's prerogative you will find. Also - I want to see him gone, and the only way I can perhaps in some small way make that happen, is to keep going on about it.
