They openly describe themselves as the "ownership group" and have an NDA over share percentages so why do we insist on believing that KLD is running things? Methven was with him tonight ffs, it's blatantly obvious nothing has changed, KLD's investment has just allowed the same people to run the club.
 

Can't help but think the knee-jerk decision to sack Johnson (was never going to get us automatic but still was knee-jerk) was KLDs which suggests he's running things. If he wasn't showing up at games, 3rd tier games in another country, I'd assume otherwise.
But for the collective to p**s these last two games away in the posistion were in as pathetic form. Either Johnson beat Doncaster in lacklusture fashion and we plod on to the playoffs or the new guy gets a very winnable game and momentum swings.

He's getting some bad advice whoever is advising him because there's really no correct decision to make here. Were not pulling a slam dunk successful decision at this stage.

I don't see how we are any more toxic than any other group. We just get a lot of attention because we are the poster child for shit clubs who can't get it right

Has fucked the season in 10 days. It seems almost taboo to have a pop at the kid but if he's really running the show and his is the last word than he's royally fucked us over these past few day and his naivety has been on full show. You can't sack a manager in the last third of a season and take this long to appoint someone, there's too many games coming thick and fast and they are running out.

I wonder how many people on here would've still wanted LJ gone if they'd known in advance that it would mean that we'd effectively burn six points to Cheltenham and Doncaster directly afterwards. Because that's what KLD and Co. have done, leaving the team in the 'care' of those two clowns of coaches.

The ownership has a mountain of work to do now to right this ship.

Take your pick from either option mate. The handful of hard core whiners on here wanted LJ sacked and Defoe signed, it happened and as yet no upturn, be it player or staff member they move on to the next victim, it's the way it goes on here.

Toxic? Fuck off man! 4th season down here, soon to be a 5th and 38k there on Saturday. 6k at Bolton the week before.

The club don’t deserve the support which has been exceptional in continuing to back the team and club.

In fact, given the shit served up repeatedly we’ve been far too passive as a fan base. Enough is enough

Can you imagine them up the road putting up with this. I don't aspire to be like a Mag but fuck me, we have allowed ourselves to sleepwalk into 3rd division mediocrity. They would have torn down St James. We have hardly raised a squeek and have appeared grateful at being thrown scraps.

- a refusal to tell the fans who owns the club

This is crucial. Shitwaffling on about NDA's, it was blatantly obvious that the original wankers still have a massive say.

KLD needs to make a statement putting this to bed, or just admit he is the new mouthpiece for these horrible cùnts.

I s KLD the son of Ellis that's the question, good intentions but f***ing clueless

Difference is Ellis had his hand in his pocket. How on earth he let the lunatics run the asylum is the baffling question but he truly cared and spent big. Unfortunately at the end because of the amount he’d lost he seemed to stop caring and just wanted to unload the club.
 
Because we don’t want to hear another word from his chosen sporting director or anyone else else at the club for that matter.

An explanation of what the hell is going on needs to come from the very top. It’s certainly the only thing that will placate me.

An apology would also be nice because ultimately the buck stops with him and the past month has been as far away from good enough as it’s possible to be. It’s probably the worst month I’ve had supporting this football club.
 
I'm not remotely interested in a word he has got to say tbh.

It would just be more shite, that he doesn't have the wherewithal to deliver.

This is the man who came in and called the 'old' owners asset strippers, before it transpired that they still own part of the club (but he refuses to say how much), and that they still have some rights over decision making (but he refuses to tell us what).

This is the man who claims to have a long term plan but who has delivered nothing in a year, on the pitch or in any other aspect of the club.

This is the man who talked about a new pitch being laid in the summer, only to quietly do fuck all about it, so we have the worst pitch in the league.

This is the man who thinks Speakman and Johnson are up to the job, and who doesn't have the abilities to appoint a football manager.

I'm not remotely interested in his family, or in O f***ing M.

I wish I'd never heard of the twat, and I wish he would fuck off.
