I have to laugh at folk claiming SE7 has spent serious money on the infrastructure of the club. You mean the same infrastructure they can’t afford to buy It’s been 40 years since I rented a place, but most tenants tend to decorate a new flat when they get the keys off the landlord. Nothing different here …
Smug chancer Charlie Methven left looking even more of a bluffer than ever after that midweek interview & then today’s defeat. We are still miles off promotion Charlie, my old bluffer, and most of the fanbase other than BB, Charles Hawtrey & Mundell knows it. The one consolation if we don’t go up this season is that your time and that of Scott & Rodwell at CAFC, will be over.
Following the signings on short term deals of Potts & Hylton , my thoughts are that the “investment “ promised by Methven via forum pets didn’t materialise. Let’s be clear - Dubai, Swiz & Global. Most of the signings look an upgrade in quality , apart from Ahadme & Godden. Selling May was clearly a mistake. We lack creative quality, pace, width and crossing ability - these are recruitment failures this Summer. On the positive side, the defensive unit looks a lot better. A lesson here …one which recent history suggests he is unlikely to heed - is that Methven’s selective leaks to ramp up expectations, are counter productive.
Nothing more, nothing less. In no way was Ahadme a £1m signing - absolute baloney. I’d say our Summer net spend was lower than what Sandgaard used to waste.
I’m still of the opinion that they are just lenders and the smt have to manage the very tight budget. If they were investors we would surely have heard from them by now.
Bunch of absolute frauds. All they have done is re-cycle the Alfie May money on a bunch of ex Luton had beens that Nathan Jones insists on playing, regardless. F vck me …we are jinxed.
I get the feeling this season could go ugly very quickly - with anger focusing on the liars running the club. Birmingham next - a very big game for Nathan Jones.
No-win. Sack him and we're stuck with his crap squad. Keep him and we're stuck with his crap squad. Keeping him would be cheaper, so I guess that's what will happen for now. But why should fans put up with being taken for absolute mugs for the entire rest of this season and beyond?
