    Powell having money pulled from him after winning league 1. We were onto something special and I still believe we could have done a back to back promotion. Huge opportunity missed. Can't really tie it down to one game, but there are moments when chances to do something have gone.

    1991-2006 - 2 managers in 15 years (and one of those the whole period) - Curbs and Gritt
    2006-2021 - 21 managers in 15 years

    It was criminal that we appointed Dowie, or anybody else for that matter with so little experience in the Premier League.
    We were a reasonably established club and should have been bringing in somebody with a lot more experience.
    Aside from that, Curbishley should have been allowed to stay and oversea his successor.

    As bad a decision of appointing Dowie, sacking him and replacing him with Reed was worse.

    We should have at least given Dowie till the new year, slowly he was beginning to turn things around.

    Wasn't Dowie's sacking forced on Murray by the other directors ? 



    No idea.

    Honestly I think the issue started the moment Slater and Jiminez sold up. As I said before, it has been nothing to do with the on field shite, but the progressively shitter and shitter owners.
