Similar could be said for Donald. The highest wage spend for the 1 completed league one season which included funding Catts and Oviedo's wages which will have been unprecedented for league 1 and I dare say the same will be true for the wages spend for the incomplete second season.

We've also spent the most on agents fees by a long way.

Throw in the fees paid for Grigg and Wyke, money that league one teams rarely spend, it has to be said that we should have escaped league one and its down to Hill, Coton and Ross that we didn't.

Absolutely and Donald was hand picked by Short - so even his parting shot was a damaging one.

The fans gave then 1 full season before demanding that they leave because they appointed a manager that wasn't famous enough.
None of the youth players the owners inherited were good enough to play in the 3rd division.

How would you know? They were never given a chance

Donald has always delivered players in every transfer window. I've read on here frequently that we would sign no one then by a month later we've signed 4 of 5 players.

We've just not signed exactly what we needed to do the job.

I can't see that happening. He may have wished to in the past but I think that he has now realised that his relationship with the fans will never recover. If he were to hang around after he sold he would still cop the blame for everything that went wrong. Time for him to get back being a medium size fish in a small pond.
 
Great and safe guessing from Nixon as always.

No we didn’t, what a load of complete shite.

Donald was criticised and rightly so for sticking with Jack Ross and trying to flog is to Mark Campbell.

The fans wanted him gone because at the time we were 15th in League one and continued to lie and lie. Plus he somehow fucked up the FPP sale.

Would he care if he thought it meant we would get to the Championship and that he raked it in from selling whatever share he retains then?

All in good time mate. It's hardly been 12 hours since the posts. It's the local links/faces that have me looking at this from a positive viewpoint. Campbell and Storey been told to do one now.
