    We'd be better off with Andrew Ridgeley.

    It's ok because Roland is still top his own list.

    Precisely what I thought at the time.

    The man responsible for the Dowie signings and flushing £20m down the drain. If I did similar in my line of work I would be sacked, banned from the industry and arrested on some sort of corruption/fraud charge. To potentially re-employ him would rank as one of the worst of many bad decisions by these 'owners'.

    The only thing I'm holding out for is that they then employ Noel Edmonds as manager who goes on to do a 'gotcha' and reveals this has all been a brutal wind up.

    Appoint a decent manager and let him choose his own chief scout.

    Far too sensible.

    Don't be so sensible for goodness sake :wink: .

    Problem is they know they've fucked it big time and are now chucking all sorts of names, Lennie, Mills blah blah blah, but they have no clue what to do next and there's nobody involved with the knowledge to advise them. If they are staying, and they're not, CEO is the first role that needs to be filled with a "football person"

    Doublechecks calendar to make sure it's not 1st April. Oh come on, this is just ridiculous.
  • If any truth it's Murray's recommendation IMO and he has lost his marbles if we get Andrew Mills back, Roland would start pissing away hundreds of thousands on players any old Dick or Harry could recommend.

    It's just all wrong, everything they do is either too late, not good enough or just completely outrageous, this would be a hint of all 3.

    This isn't really happening, is it?

    I'm gonna wake up soon, surely?

    Not Andrew Mills, surely - shouldn't that be Bertram Mills ?

    Acworth should get his CV in quick - way way more qualified than any of the numpties RD, KM & RM are lining up for this job...

    What's next? Les Reed as manager? Mervyn Day as coach? Rick Everitt as MD?

    Was he? I thought he was here to deal with contracts etc, not actually choose players.

    Danny Mills could do a better job. God help us. Richard Murray's doing?

    Reed and Day I could deal with... But Everitt - not in my life time :smiley:

    Gutted to a point that there is even a shortlist ... Doesn't sound like a business that is wanting to/ready to/about to be sold :disappointed:

    I think they believe all the stay away fans will return to the fold next season, especially if we are winning. If we are doing well a lot will but quite a few more probably won't.

    A clear move to antagonise the fan base if true.

    What the **** has happened to this club?
