    He was still towing the party line then. He knows he is on a hiding to nothing now. And that it is impossible to be successful whilst these owners, with their recruitment policy, are in charge. I think he wants an out now, so by criticising the owners he is hoping he gets sacked and get a payout

    People who are ******* competent. These muppets are an absolute disgrace yet the head coach is always the fall guy. I want these owners out now. They've had more than enough chances and nothing changes.

    Isn't Mladen supposed to be in charge of all football activites for all team or is my understanding of the organisation in correct.

    I hear what you.re saying but under these owners we.ve had consecutive playoff campaigns.
    I would imagine the owners have little say in the recruitment side apart from maybe releasing the finances.And we have spent over a million on signings and obviously adding to the wage bill.

    This forum is fùcking mental. Everyone was delighted with the summer recruitment a month ago.

    I get we're playing **** and it's very disappointing, but the teenage, toys out of pram, let's throw stones at and abuse everyone at the club attitude is bewildering

    This is why you can't have and don't deserve nice things.

    To a degree it is Clarkes fault. He knew what he was taking on 2 others had turned the job down stendel and wellens. Warhammer couldn't get a work permit. I get the feeling after speaking with the board stendel and wellens thought **** that not for me.
    Or maybe it's because they wanted us to blood youth players like Marsh who has a long way to go to ever be league one standard.

    Clarke was out of work took the job, you can't then blame the players every game. Then put out a 2nd side v Huddersfield and moan that they have better players.

    Collins football was ***** he had no efl managing experience its no coincidence he now managing some ***** side even I could get a game in.
    We've had schopp ashbagi Clarke and Collins in the space of 4 years. I just want to be entertained or watch a side who look like they want to attack and win, is that too.much to ask.

    Then the next poor s*d is expected to perform miracles. The main problem is not DC.

    Hourihane is on Staff wages, Gent was on peanuts at Blackburn, Jackson low wages at Walsall, we got 600k in for Styles and off the wages, plus the 4 others I mentioned Cole, Cadden, Kane and Williams who were on more money than we've replaced them with, as I say net spend of around 400k

    But gents hardly played, conor is more of a coach, dkds had one good game then Clarke coached that out of him, mkwotsit isn't fit, Jackson we might aswell have signed kipper Jackson and Humphrys looks OK but doesn't look fit.... worst window ever.

    I’d be very surprised if Hourihane was on peanuts.

    Don’t forget there is also a ratchet on player salaries that sees increases from season to season over the life of their contract.

    I wouldn’t be surprised if our overall wage bill was fairly similar to last season.

    Slow down a bit pal. :cool:

    If you read my post properly, I was replying to someone who said we’d cut our wage bill by 4 players leaving.

    I was pointing out that we’d also added 7 more.
