Im not supporting anyone thanks, already said they failed in their 2yr plan, so need to let someone else have a go. As for promotion would you complain if we were promoted!! Speakman has been brought in forba longterm plan

You can report someone, but they arent going to get banned unless they have said something worth banning for

2 year plan 😂😂 it was a 1 year plan for promotion and flip it . Selling the best young kids with no thought for beyond that year , Sam Greenwood left with 2 month of them being there , all about the money

Are you bothered in any way at their handling of the football club? If so, by what?

Your current view, and correct me if I am misrepresenting it, is that they failed to deliver promotion and everyone should largely get over it, and by them selling, ultimately that will be the end of it.

Never said they should get over it, said they failed in their 2yr plan so need to let someone else have a go at taking us forward. I was bothered by the season ticket fuck up at the time, they have corrected it. And to be fair i would go to games regarless of what division we are in. The academy have sold too many youngsters, if they could of done more to keep some of them i have no idea, i heard both sides of the story

They failed at getting us out the league, the parachute payment thing has been done to death, they have paid some of it back and are supposed to pay back the rest back if they sell, well according to SD anyway. The academy they probably have sold too many players, but some were always going to go while we were in league 1.

Absolute nonsense this mind.
League 1 is exactly where they should have been utilising the academy by employing a manager who would develop and play the youth.
Parkinson was a rediculous appointment as was raising a pittance by selling off considerable youth talent with a salary cap imminent.
Donald is culpable for this.

Yes they should of used more youth players i agree with that. But when you are a cat 1 academy its not always that simple in keeping hold of the best young players.

The general malaise which seems to fund your posts on the subject was my reasoning. Generally, you seems very accepting of the situation and whilst your concerns are valid, you don’t appear that vexed.

Fair enough, just thought seeing the club at its lowest ever ebb, ransacked from top to bottom with little or no light at the end of the tunnel etc, would illicit a slightly more vigorous view of the situation.
 
Some, possibly most of us, have clicked on this thread hoping to read something about takeover news or rumours. Having to read through the personal handbags stuff's just a tad tedious. DM-it/ignore it/ block it, whatever - I don't understand why the rest of us have to read through the tosh.

Speakman has been appt to oversee the long term plan of the club, i like what im hearing from him and LJ at the min. Speakman seems to think he has the financial backing to implement his plans, where that money is coming from i dont know. Got more important things in life to worry about than being in league 1

This Academy point is the biggest disgrace. It's like they didn't see or care what clubs like Southampton or Wolves did when they found themselves down here.

It is. You're not accepting what's happened. They've took you and everyone else for a ride. Most have seen that. You haven't. Hopefully the penny will drop for you soon so you stop making a fool of yourself

Not making a fool of myself thanks. Its called having my own opinion! They have failed to get us to get us promoted so need to sell and let someone else have a go. If that happens or not only time will tell
