The man we should have appointed sends us down with two goals by. A forward he wouldn’t have been allowed to sign , fate can be cruel .
Time for the slaughter to begin , Peter you need to step up now admit our mistakes and go for it , your the only one in the boardroom with real football insight sad but true you have some harsh decisions to make in no Great order but immediately
1 Scholes Cartwright and the whol transfer team have to go now tomorrow .We need to find a true off the field visionary and leader as ceo .
2 Young John has demonstrated he isn’t ready as part of the recruitment team he needs to go back to the shadows to lick his wounds tough I know but it’s tough love
3 Lambert and his keep fit class mates all need to go they have failed miserably and are totally out their depth .
4 A proper budget neeeds to be set aside the self sufficient book burnt at the alter of our relegation.The muscle of bet 365 needs to used to full extent if the brand is to get the exposure you desire, no talk of charlton and Portsmouth from a company paying dividends as big as Man City’s summer spending
5 The budget needs to be set to recruit a proper manager and backroom staff and recruitment team with real pedigree first, big Sam would be ideal if he is available , but if not one with a track record , not a out of work reinventor of a stalled career
6 A new drive at renewal of season tickets based on leadership and acknowledglemt of the fact not carpet sweeping the Issue
7 Then back the manager and new recruitment team to run the sale of key assets and their replacement , may be a budget of £50m plus sales received would go a way to restoring the £100:revenue line quickly .it might take two years given the amount of change but the longer it’s left the longer it will take
8 finally don’t dither bring it on now the battle is lost , we need to start to prepare for the war now
It’s a time for leadership now as the greatest ever once said sucesss isn’t final nor failure permanent it’s the courage to fight on that counts , with real leadership now this isn’t our darkest hour but without it there is no compelling reason for us to engage in the struggle , ball is firmly in your court .Many are looking to you to provide iit if Scholes and co are permitted to remain , i for one will not be going into the championship trenches with anything like the same regularity, not an easy decision when my own fathers fallen ashes lie at the stadium , let Churchill step forward and Black adder be banished for ever
Great post. I am sorry Peter, as I’m sure you are hurting as much as the rest of us, but it was all too predictable that this was going to happen. I’m only sorry you couldn’t see this happening as well before it was too late.
