Should we hear from the organ grinder, not the monkey?

    Patrick Cryne needs to speak to the supporters. I don't think anyone wants an owner who goes on a rant every week or two, or openly castigates players in public. But the club he owns functions because people turn up to watch. Therefore he has some responsibility, to explain occasionally what his thought process is, to put himself across to people and actively engage once in a while. Yes, we can say Ben does that for him. But occasionally, like now, I suspect some people want to hear from the organ grinder, not the monkey.

    Given the amount of questions this week's decision is throwing up then perhaps it is time for some clarity on one or two issues.

    We are still waiting for clarity on AFC to be fair

    I'm sure we were told it was a lottery win by shefftyke that funded it but after that at least one other completely different person claimed to be funding it.
