You don't even know the bloke
How many people do we all not know personally but judge on their actions?

FWIW i'd give KS 1 last window to make a difference after a good start but if not I'd like him and all the top brass gone myself IF they don't learn from their basic mistakes
 
Anyone else bored of the faux outrage about the same things? I know things aren’t easy at the min but it’s the same arguments everyday.

Black cats bar thing was a disgrace I’ll never change my mind on it and agree heads should’ve rolled but there’s only so much the club can divulge on regarding internal investigations.

people on RTG were demanding that the minutes were released and stomping their feet when they were not released instantly. The club are damned if they do and damned if they don’t.
 
How do you know its been swept under the carpet?

They will be limited, by employment law, with what they can say

Folk wanted to get an update that something was done, the club do that and folk still moan 'aww but we want to know exactly what was done'

Its the exact same when we were signing a striker- folk said just sign any striker, then it was no we didnt want any striker we want an experienced striker

The club really cant win in some folks eyes

The issue wont ever happen again with these owners imo so for me that means its been dealt with

Sadly, there's no answer good enough for these people other than for everyone associated with it to leave.

Until KLD sells, a percentage of our "fans" will be negative as **** which is often a self fulfilling prophecy as far as performing goes and claim that they're doing it out of passion.
 
For goodness sake can we just move on from the BCB mess up , we will all tear ourselves apart but will never find out how the club dealt with the matter . The club could NOT divulge what action was taken minor or major as they would leave themselves liable to legal action and I do not think any genuine fan would want that , the club have a lot more urgent tasks to work on and as I said on an earlier post it is time to move on . Forgive and forget is an appropriate saying to bring this sorry episode to an end once and for all .

This, it’s pathetic. Everyday since it’s been the same arguments,

I don’t think I could ever forgive them for what they did but I agree it’s over and we should move on instead of going over and over about the same ****.
 
Lucky him, I thought he was canny at 1st, but things change.

He's there to be 'canny' like Alex Ferguson not Bobby Thompson ...

... I couldn't care less if the entire club is a nest of vipers providing we play well and progress.

Sunderland was an old boys club with a drinking culture for far too long. I'm not interested in us being a rest home for players wanting a gravy train into retirement. If you want to be our manager read the t&c's before you sign the contract, not when you lose a few games.

And I don't want money thrown away at 'hospitality' ...

... if you're not contributing, you shouldn't be there.
 
No. But I think a significant portion of the fan base at the time were rightly furious and some have not let that pass. Therefore, I think, our fans deserve some clarity and accountability given the scale of the screw up.
You have already had clarity on the situation when KLD stated that mistakes had been made and the club would hold an internal investigation, he did in effect place the blame at his own door and apologised and stated most of this in the statement released after the incident. The scale of the screw up depends on your personal perspective, for me it was not a good look but I am not as angrily outraged as yourself and certainly would not want the club to hang somebody out to dry because of it and TBH it was what appears to be the culmination of a number of errors in judgement, planning and security.
The guy at the top KLD has already accepted blame so I guess he is the scapegoat some are looking for, however there are a few on here would love to blame KS or LON or even Dodds as they look for somewhere to vent their frustrations.
