To come at this from the other perspective....."So what exactly is people's problem with Ged"
I see a lot of negativity aimed at him but I fail to see why there is so much animosity aimed at him and why he is suddenly the target for the boo boys? Admittedly the transfer window isn't going how we wanted it to but I am not sure the issue is Roddy
I think people are pissed off mate. Hoped for more, expected more, and are loading their gun as a reaction.
No one knows where to point their gun though. So all of them (Sandgaard, Roddy, Gallen, Adkins) are potentially in the firing line depending on where individuals think the blame lies without knowing the truth.
What did happen with that sponsorship deal he was working on. I know businesses at the Charlton golf day who were shocked at what happened with the current deal.
Hold on - the “college” we “signed” Jacob Roddy from is just a private secondary school? I assumed it was some sort of sports academy. I’ve never heard of us signing a player from a school, surely young players just go to school until their 18 and then leave?

Nothing, because he never worked on a sponsorship deal. This is the kind of thing we need to avoid, trying to pin problems on one person instead of trying to find out what is ACTUALLY happening.

The deal (by Mumford not Roddy) was overhyped but it is not a sponsorship deal and it has been done. It will be announced in due course. It was never going to have any impact on the transfer budget.
Played Bradfield U14 Bs once. They beat us 14-0. One of my kick-outs dropped near the centre-circle and a player volleyed it straight back over my head and in. They're a jolly serious football school

Airman. Are you hearing any rumblings about Roddys role and influence in the club?
Talking of sponsorships and tie ups weren't we doing something with Zheng Zhi that was going to get us publicity in China, and something with a club in India who had millions of fans?
That's Mumford's area i know, not Roddy. But just curious.

Noise around a bit of a turf war in January, which I think Bowyer-Gallen won. I've never really seen the case for both Roddy and Gallen in L1 tbh.

I think this is the nub of it. Sandgaard is trying to run the club like a "normal" business by having directors of X, y and z but this isn't really necessary.
I don't think this is necessarily something that Roddy can be blamed for personally, he got given the job and is doing it. But I don't think it's been implemented particularly well.

This isnt a dig in anyway mate but you say he has been given a job and he is doing it, how do you know that ? I think it is all a bit vague what his job is let alone that he is doing it ?

Fancy sitting on the bench to cover MacGillivray?
Leuth could be our modern day Steve Brown fancied his chances last night at left back 😉.
I’m pissed off. Let’s be honest and say that every single one of us thought that we would be signing a squad of players to compete at the top of this league. That was what was promised if not in those exact words. Forget the nonsense about Premier League in five years or whatever was said. Every journey starts somewhere and we’ve started ours by not delivering anything like a top six league one team. Nowhere near. Now either Sandgaard is a fool or he thinks we might be. Much preferred him to be up front from day one but we got sold a load of old flannel. I suppose we desperately wanted to believe it. I’m beginning to think that there might still be legal wranglings going on over ownership that have not been resolved and TS can’t commit because of that ? In any case something doesn’t feel right to me.
The fact that kids, some of which have been with us since they were 6 years old have been bumped off in the summer and replaced by the new sporting directors son, who appears to have signed a pro contract! is starting to whiff quite a bit

Something very, very odd about this whole thing.
