Selling Flanagan, a decent league one defender, and not replacing him, leaving us short at centre back.

Lack of striking options generally, especially if Stewart was to get a short or long term injury

No experienced right back

No mobile, experienced centre mid enforcer

Sack a manager and then a pantomime ensues to bring in a replacement whilst Rome burns and two clueless stand ins oversee a disgraceful defeat by Doncaster Rivers, bottom of the league but who could have been 4-0 up at half time quite easily. 38,000 people treated to an absolute amateurish shit show as a result. Disgusting.

Make pretentious videos instead of just appointing a manager who most supporters would like to see given the opportunity and entertain a series of applicants who will see many walk away if they are given the job.

The constant corporate speak and blather about projects and data, which from several heavy thrashings and ridiculous home results against clubs at the bottom end at the time of playing them-Charlton, Lincoln and Doncaster-and throwing away numerous late leads, eg: Wycombe and Accrington etc.-is not working very well.

That so many clubs with lesser support, history and overall squad ability are doing better than us suggest those running the club need to have a good look at themselves. Four years in this division is unacceptable. Standards are not good enough.
Was hoping for industrial strength frenchies with years of experience to set up a continental DoF/data-driven system.

Instead they hired Birmingham’s old youth setup, brought in LJ, and expected it to work without a hitch.

But sacking a coach then taking nearly 10 days to hire a celebrity makes a mockery of the last 18 months. Looks like we’re going to have to ditch Speakman and start over once this farce is concluded.
 
Replaced midget midfielders with more midget midfielders that aren't as good. #DATA
Sell defenders to get them though!
Personally, after the Donald debacle, I've tried really hard not to get drawn in by Dreyfuss, and tried to judge him on actions and results.

So far, I've seen

- season cards go up (against the price freeze promise)
- at least one, and probably two, more failures to get out of League One
- a failure to do anything about the pitch, despite the press coverage about getting a state of the art pitch last year
- an absolutely shambolic off field operation, where it's impossible to get strips, the club shops are closed at peak times like pre-season and Christmas, and you can't get into the ground using cash
- no investment in the infrastructure of the stadium (unbelievably, the PA system is getting worse)
- a refusal to tell the fans who owns the club
- waiting far too long to sack Lee Johnson, who should have been gone the morning after the Lincoln game
- what looks increasingly like a ballsed up managerial appointment

I'm not sure what the list of achievements is meant to be, or why, after a year of more underperformance, we shouldn't be questioning him?
Class post.

F'in scary when you see it like that.
