    Wouldn't be against it.

    Either way, regardless of what happens here these next 4/5 months there'll be crowds of less than 8.5k next year. And a new gaffer within 12 months.

    Lower L1 budget.

    In any other business those at 'the top' would be clearing their desks.

    If you reckon we're going to be attracting managers without a failure on their CV then you're going to be disappointed.

    Unless we go for someone like Hill.

    Well we seem to be sitting back, offering nothing except ever increasing prices for a worsening product. That only leads one way.

    Agree. We need to think of something that:

    a) attracts fans
    b) guarantees we break even

    It's difficult without any signs of support from the town. It's £15 on Saturday for what's a Championship match in all but name. <6k. Guaranteed.

    It will, but it's a one off priced cup game on the back of a dismal set of results, a sacked manager and immediately post Christmas. We need a 'long term' strategy off field as well. That means attractive match day pricing, a change in attitude that makes the club stop thinking it's doing us a favour by being there and a more aggressive commercial approach.

    Unfortunately that means (imho) a massive change in personnel upstairs and that ain't happening without new owners.
