So many issues and this board must sort them!

|

The time for excuses and explanations is long past!

This season has been the most wearying, worrying and nerve jangling I  can remember and I go back a very long way with this club.

I really can’t be bothered to get into the plethora of issues which have followed us through a winter of the most serious discontent I can  recall the Bond issues and was part of it.

But there is no doubt the board has brought much of it upon itself and if lessons haven’t been learned after months of anger, frustration then us and them are in trouble. Things have to change!

We are waiting for a

O Tony Henry replacement;

O for David Sullivan to step back from front line player recruitment involvement

O for serious dough to be spent on players

O for the managerial situation to be sorted;

O for some resolution between the club and London’s politicians to the ongoing stadium problems

O and a genuine dialogue to start between club and fans.

We have survived a horrible season as a Premier League club but it has left the most bitter of tastes in our mouths and at the end of the board are those responsible for the well being of this club.

As we head into our last two games and beyond they need to be showing emphatically that these are all issues they will address immediately.

Nothing less will do if they are to retain any credibility.

    Yes that is about the size of it Hugh. Not holding my breath, but I suppose you could say it’s a case of expect the worst but hope for the best.

  • Hammer64 says:

    Hits the nail on the head imo Hugh. Don’t feel confident that they will respond to your challenge but they must realise they really don’t have much choice. I am expecting the worst but hoping for the best!

    Apologies for the repeated message.My memory has not gone completely but having some problems with my computer. Previous message did not show up until after sending the second one. Well that’s my story anyway ☹️☹️

    I fear riots and points deductions

    I think all the time we stay up the protests will be limited. If we start next season off like the last two & relegation looms again then all hell is likely to break loose.
