I suppose that depends on whether you think he's had long enough to try and turn it around and whether he's done enough to justify being given the benefit of time.

We're all pissed off, but for some of us the red line hasn't been crossed yet.

I voted Donald in, for now.

There is no time with him though, that's my gripe. Hes been trying to sell the club for a year and would have happily had we been promoted. And will again this summer regardless of what happens.

He doesnt deserve time really when his ownership has been completely short term planning and mapped his exit from day 1. He isnt a long term owner who deserves time.


Completely agree with @GarethQ on this thread mind. Nailed it

Dont do Facebook, couldnt think of out worse.

People are just not happy at being mid table in league one with a club that's failing at every level. People going on as if Donald is a long term saviour when in reality hes desperate to get out.

I totally respect your view and can't argue any of that, but I personally think it's premature to force him out. He's the biggest stakeholder in the clubs future so Id rather see every avenue exhausted before terminating the relationship.

My personal thoughts would be to see where we are on the back of this transfer window. He'll be acutely aware that this season has been a complete catastrophe and if there is a time to start learning from mistakes, it's now.

Will you be saying the same if we have a strong window and win the league?

Had reluctantly decided to give Parkie the transfer window and until mid Feb before making my mind up about his appointment as manager by SD.

Common sense here. Nothing to gain and plenty to lose by changing things at this moment and that goes for SD as well as Parkie. I'm guessing we'll never know what SD might have been able to achieve should we get promoted. Too many people have nailed their colours to the mast and won't be prepared to publically change their minds, swallow their pride and persuade him to stay. All hypothetical of course. My
Ill considered wholesale change and upheaval is the biggest threat we face.

When has he shown he can learn from his mistakes?

When he accepted it's time to fuck off.

The whole thing's been a massive, sorry mistake.

I wish all the fans groups would put their collective efforts into getting some kind of atmosphere going at the SoL.. This is the one thing where they could make a positive difference.

Its league one, it's the minimum that should be expected. If that happens then Donald will be falling over himself to sell up as quick as he can for profit.

Christ, he thinks he's Gods gift even though he's doing a f***ing shit job, imagine what he would be like if he brought a modicum of success

Look through the posters who have voted - the usernames are there. I don't see many mags or anything else in the mix.

He's the only one that should be doing any persuading. Fuckin' hell man.

I voted Donald in (None season ticket holder). I want the club to be sold but I don't want it to be sold to the first dafty who comes along with an acceptable bid so I don't like the trying to force him out mentality. That mentality also makes the club a less attractive prospect for potential buyers.

I'm not convinced by that to be honest.

I also don't want it sold the first dafty that comes along (unless of course said daft is incredibly rich and generous and fancies a stab at the Champions League).

You think potential owners are looking at the actions of ALS, Rawa etc and are thinking they will get a fair crack at turning us around?

What they should be looking at is the books, the squad, the facilities, where Donald has fucked up.

We've a fine history of being an excellent bunch of supporters in spite of all the heartache that comes our way.

What potential owners should look at is what can they do better? How can they keep that amazing set of fans who hoy millions of pounds at the club year or year regardless of where they're at on side?

Think we underestimated league one tbh.. We all thought it would be a walk in the park, been proved completely wrong.. Nowt to do with the owner last season, that squad was more than good enough to finish top 2. Manager bottled it. Now he's gone we have to start from scratch again, and we are now seeing benefits, perhaps later than we would of liked.

Stewart Donald was literally a whisker away from achieving his goal at the first time of asking, then bigger investments would of potentially happened in the championship. I don't think he's done anywhere near as dreadfully as most are making out, you'd think we were bottom 4 and out of touch, we're bang in the mix for promotion. Think this transfer window makes or breaks our season, and Donald should know this enough to commit to giving us a successful window.

Time will tell, but I think he deserves to be given til the end of the season. I voted in.. But only for now.
