£30m and a team that took 27 points from 19 games at the end of last season.
Surely from that starting point, he should have got more than 2 points from 10 games?

Protesting would make Short look faster for a buyer, one would think. It did with Murray.
"He's kept us in the top flight" "If it wasn't for him we'd have gone long ago"
Ironically, he's done sweet fuck all to stop any rot.

Here he is Ellis Shorts most massivest fan.
Sorry mate, I'll be doing something useful with my time - I'll be in the pub getting pissed.
Make sure you wrap up warm though, it'll probably get a bit cold, especially as you'll be standing there by yourself.
Trying to pretend he's too cool to notice how shit things are at SAFC.

Yes. I'm sure a rushed sale definitely won't come back to bite us on the arse.

Can someone actually demonstrate and example of where Short has actually fucked up and where fans have actually expressed concern at the time?
I don't mean mistakes that are spotted in hindsight, a glaringly obvious mistake

I'm no fan of Short, but the critics have moved on from "he doesn't back the managers" to "he's ran the club into the ground", all the while not realising the latter is a result of him doing the opposite of the former.Does it matter if the sale takes 10 days or a year?
Do you think Short will be looking for a buyer with the club's interest at heart? Short will care about one thing - trying to get back as much of the money he's wasted as possible. Why does the speed of the sale matter?

Allardyce for one. Sacking Bruce is another.
MON was one we were all in favour of at the time, so we can't hold that against him either.

I imagine that he still holds some affection for the club. I think it hasn't worked out how Quinny told him it could but I don't think for one second he doesn't have our best interests at heart
It's been done to the death on here relentlessly but that's bullshit.
He has not backed managers - or made them work with one hand behind their back. This results in us doing shit. He panics, sacks the manager, hires a new one, panic buys, and then once we're safe, fails to back managers again. It's the cycle that keeps happening.
You can fail to back the managers properly, in the short term, which results in more costs and inefficiency in the long run.

Allardyce did okay. It was only 6 months ago.
The rest were shite, past it or not interested.
Plenty of clubs spent less and stopped up though.
I think by this point he probably feels we're a burden more than anything. If he could get the figure he wants but the sale was to a suspect owner I would be absolutely amazed if he said no. I doubt even the most ardent Ellis supporters on here think he would either.
