    I think the club may release a communication later this afternoon...the performances and management of the team and club has been unacceptable from top to bottom.

    We deserve something along those lines, some optimism is needed to give the support a boost.

    I don’t want this to drag on.

    Dodds can **** off mind, not keen on him at all and he’s been hanging around the club like a bad smell.

    Club is doing fine, better than it has been for a decade. Team needs sorting out.

    The retained list will be interesting. We need to be ruthless. Anyone deemed not good enough to get us into the top six or not thought likely to improve enough to become a top six player should be out of the door or up for sale.
    Next season is the 4th of KLD's 5 year plan. It's a vital one. Anything less than top six should be regarded as a failure.

    I'm really looking forward to the close season, which will be a really busy one. New proper Head Coach and a new coaching team, New Director of Football, more experienced and greater quality players coming in, mediocre players going out along with those interesting Premier League clubs. Bring it on!

    Proctor shouldn’t get a free pass either.

    Be sensible. Things have been pretty bleak but that's just uninformed, emotional nonsense.

    We have absolutely no evidence to suggest that's correct and a good deal to suggest it is incorrect.

    Bad decisions have been made and a poor season has been had, maybe heads need to roll. Doesn't mean people involved don't give a ****.

    Just absolutely petty bullshit that.

    Speakman I would probably agree with, to an extent, but we don't know what constraints he was operating under.
    As for Dodds and Procter both were asked to do a job that they clearly weren't up to, that's not their fault. I'd be quite happy to see them back in their previous jobs at the academy as they were highly rated at that.
    We need to concentrate on getting the right head coach and if appropriate director of football.

    Not sure how much he will be involved in the recruitment side. The chief scout at my club has little say on who we sign. His job is to comply scouting reports n dossiers on players and then up to the technical n sporting directors to make final decision

    Not sure if there’s much else and would anyone argue any have been anything but poor? Work to do
    I’m hoping we announce a DOF now, coach next, upgrade the first team systems then get some better ****ing players in and give Bruce the clout he needs

    I get the feeling Harvey has a bit of say or he wouldn’t be flying off to make judgements he’d just be coordinating. Those judgments they’ve made haven’t been the best in the last 18 months to me like.

    I like to think that Speakman signed his own P45 by employing and sacking Beale. What an absolute appalling period in this proud football club since January. I'm giving KLD the benefit of the doubt, but hard decisions need to be made right now

    Chief scouts will still fly all over the world tho, theyll even meet players n agents - big part of their roles but they could rave about a player saying they are the best theyve ever seen n the TD or SD could go against them

    My club signed a player solely based on the TD n SD liking them despite the chief scouts n orher scouts saying he wasnt good enough
