    Great observations. We should jump straight in and hire another Schopp or Poya. Forget the interview stage, just get 'em in ASAP

    Would you rather they hadn't released the new kit?

    Not forgetting no captain and maybe no vice captain if the rumours are true

    Because they marketed it so well they know they’ll make some good money from it. Football? Who cares about that side of things? Fans? **** them.

    Money? They put in over 6 million of their own money last year... I must say this every season but our fan base are so hyperbolic & fickle

    Khaled said after Wembley reassured the fan base and said we have had no offers for Duff but have everything covered and targets if he does leave.

    I would be very shocked if it was ever anyones except Devaneys!

    We will go for the cheap option not the option that would make sense.

    I would think the 3 week wait of “interviews” will be to justify the “overwhelming” first choice candidate in Devaney.

    Yes, and they've finished with the interviews..? The board can't stop people from telling lies.

    They haven't released it. They have shown us what it looks like that's all.

    I'd rather say it's 6 million to cover their previous mistakes.

    Our fans have been consistent. Consistent in what we have put into the club ST wise etc.

    We didn't ask the board to spunk money like they did. Or like Conway did to be more precise.

    So I find it a bit odd that we sit here and have to be grateful they are ploughing money in for their own gaffs

    And why did they do that? Because of their own doings caused that to happen. They were forced to do it or risked losing their investment.

    Frankly, yes. I'd rather they'd put more time & effort into capitalising on the Wembley feel good factor by stabilising the playing squad and coaching staff than chasing publicity with that awful tat.

    They've released the pictures of the kit. There you go, Mr. pedantic ;)

    In the last 12 months the board have got shut of Conway & Lee, pumped about £5m in to keep us from going under and got us to the play off final when many said we’d struggle to even stay up. FFS give em some slack!
