    I always try to look at things through red and white glasses but I agree with every word of this

    Yes but you are blaming him for Still not coming, when we don't have a clue what has happened going off the contradictory reports

    All we can do is cling onto hope mate!!

    This will be worth it if we get the right manager in - to take this long you must nail the appointment

    Stewart was asked to come back, as Juan was spending more time back home, so Kyril asked him to come back for 1 year, he declined and sold his shares so he could invest elsewhere.
    Believe it or not he still has interests in the club.

    I’ve said throughout I’d rather Maric than Still, and that I also got bad vibes from Still. Just never sat right with me. So if we end up with Maric I’m a happy guy.

    But I’m done with Speakman. Unfair of me or otherwise. There’s just been too many times now of stories that paint him poorly.

    At this rate it will be the lad from Hull, Dodds and Proctor being on the front bench...

    It took them five months to get to the point where Plan A failed.

    There's no Plan B. After being given a gigantic head start, we're behind and winging it yet again.

    No I do genuinely believe we have a plan B. I don’t necessarily trust us to be able to execute it. So we may end up with plan G

    Like I have said before I don't believe all the social media stuff, as too many with contradicting info. So will probably never know the truth. Speakman has done a lot of good things at the club, his major mistake was appt Beale, and relying on Dodds for the rest of the season.

    Ridiculous, obviously.

    Its difficult to feel any semblance of optimism with this lot as they lumber from one farce to another.

    We need a manager in early to make sure our pre season planning and prep is as good as it can be. Once again it seems we're going to be pissing about trying to organise Plan F.

    I get that, i was a big speakman fan as think he got the club back on track but my faith in him is fading fast after last season

    The beale appointment was a shocker but when he turned up at the press conference to say he witnesses the best training session ever, it was embarrassing and i lost so much respect for him in that moment

    Ill judge how i think this managerial appointment is when we actually appoint someone. I would rather take our time to get the right manager in than rush n just make any appointment
