He's not a great manager - not as bad as some make out though - but I'm more frustrated by the utter lack of sporting ambition from the man in charge of our club. Provided the profit keeps ticking over and he gets his rent, I don't think he really cares where we finish.
Sure, he'd no doubt like promotion - the same way I'd like to marry Wonder Woman; i'm not going to do anything to make it happen and neither is he.
Pretty disillusioned with things right now. I expect the board will quietly forget the "top half is minimum requirement" comment after we finish 15th, the same way they forgot all that talk of a promotion push last season.
Exactly.
Always look to the top when there are problems.
Maybe the structure needs looking at while we're at it to try and generate some excitement for more punters.
Lower league stuff is being played out in stadiums permanently less than half full so there is a problem.
And it won't be solved by Checkatrade Cup tampering.
That's like rearranging the deck chairs.
What about making the leagues smaller and having a fifth division with existing league clubs, no new ones?
