If we're so reliant on the parachute money, we're going to be well and truly fucked when it runs out unless we're back in the Prem.

The parachute money ideally would have been utilised in the Championship, to make a push for the Premiership.
If we stay down, we'll be in good financial shape in League one. Promotion in 2020/21 to the Championship, will need additional revenues / investment to enable us to push for the Premiership.

Any old club can get out of League One man....its embarrassing that we're in it, it's more embarrassing that we might still be in it next season and off the embarrassment scale dropping 4 points to Fleetwood Town.

Ask Jack what he intends to do differently next season and if he hasn't got an alternative to what's been served up this season let him go.

Ask the owners too

They appointed tony cotton and richard hill to do transfers

And sold our best player at a vital time during the season

Got no issues with the sale of Maja although we shouldn't have signed an injured player as a replacement. As regards Coton, Hill and Ross I'd love to know the actual breakdown of who chose which player and what the recruitment strategy was. A case could be made for most of the signings individually but collectively they left us short of pace and athleticism. If I hear the owner, Ross or Coton acknowledge this as a mistake and vow to restore balance to the squad I'll back them to the hilt.

No it was a terrible decision to sell our best player

And recruitment and the recruiters have been very poor and don’t look qualified

Can’t hold one man responsible for every mistake if Ross is to blame then so are the owners as they also made big mistakes

I’d also like to know why their mate from eastleigh was suddenly put in charge of a category 1 academy

Was it to facilitate the sale of some of our best prospects? As it’s a hell of a coincidence

I believe that the owners are being quite creative in increasing revenue from non-television sources.

IF (hope it doesn't happen but) we are still in League One next year, extract more funds from the global support to buy the best defenders of League One.
Increase price SAFSEE International, membership, merchandise sales, and so forth. I would gladly pay more to convert draws into wins :)

Dropped 5 points, really, to be pedantic.

Woahhh, Grumpy! Better someone with experience than someone who has done nothing but courses to get to professor.

Your reports have been fully clear and understandable. Cheers fella.
