None of this is a surprise. He wishes he could find what’s gone wrong, but is incapable of doing so … mainly because it’s his; naivety, inexperience, lack of authority, lack of understanding, critical analysis skills, effort levels, general incompetence, lack of planning, lack of availability, understanding, self awareness, absence of recruiting the lacking skills. Etc etc. His business’ performance is accurately tracking his talents. We’ll continue on this trajectory for as long as he leads.

The excuse we use for not signing anyone changes

Approximately £1m per goal. Thanks Patson!

Stella???

Was that our “good” 45?? I can’t imagine seeing anything worse than that half

That’s not an unintentional consequence, it’s literally what it’s there to do - stop clubs from unsustainable practices that put its existence at risk

Just put a covenant in the sale contract that forbids it being moved

Your dad’s pissed, give him a pint of water and a bucket by his bed

He’s on the KP gravy train

Good

Apparently Ayew was shouting to the 4th official as Yanik obstructed his movement towards the jelly babies

oh yeah!! Good spot, I’m taking that as the positive from tonight!

Daka is utterly hopeless - surely we’ve seen enough to not waste our time trying that again?? Evans would be the “try something different” option

There’s one thing he can’t be criticised with that defensive line up … never trying anything different!!

I’m glad you saw that, I was beginning to doubt my own eyes!!! It’s unusual for a striker to bollock a keeper!

I’m not sure about piling into him today, I thought that’s as hard as we’ve battled for a good while

Looks 3-4 years older than he is (in the nicest possible way)!!! Great composure, positional play and battling as well as his obvious quality. I’m a big fan!

I usually try to defend him a bit

Yeah I’m sure there’s exceptions, like I say it’s purely anecdotal

It’s only anecdotal, but in my experience, almost every business that I’ve dealt with that used factoring were in serious trouble, either massively restructured or liquidated, within a year or two. in fact, when I faced having to make redundancies I explored factoring and decided it simply made the problem worse and delayed the inevitable. Using these loans for limited situations was understandable but is a drug that’s hard to resist and we seem completely hooked now

Crikey that time flew!!! So 1 game attended, no visible progress on Boardroom appointments, no fan engagement or anything to suggest a movement closer to the fans. He’s so inept, incompetent and clueless that he thinks that interview solved the problems

A sensible rule would be that you have to pay in full for a player before / as he’s sold… He’s effectively the collateral against the outstanding payments, no collateral then no ongoing credit terms

Our first Fofana?

And the alternative is to pay all of his wages whilst he’s not playing, whilst he infects some of the squad with his negativity. I’d take 20% of his wages just to be rid of the toxicity of a senior player that’s doing nothing other than waiting to leave

I agree, it reminds me of the rules around council spending, resulting in a mad dash to spend every penny of the budget in March (notice the pothole repair mayhem in that month) instead of better planned longer term work like resurfacing a road. We seem to run the club in the same way; in a constant state of pothole repair, never improving just falling further behind maintaining the crumbling mess
