I don't trust these new owners one bit. Their tenure so far could not have gone any worse!

    Good for you. Carry on maunging and moaning like a spoilt child.

    If Chien Lee was willing to put much personal finance in, he wouldn't be part of a consortium.

    Sorry, I'm not suggesting that they should only stating the intention I heard. Might it be that they aren't putting more cash in and the budget next season has to reflect a League One budget?

    Who else is applauding the current situation are they? Neither are they asking you to.

    Again, who said they were happy?

    Just because other people aren't spending the evening throwing their teddies out it doesn't mean they're **** a hoop.

    Just not as quick to write people off.

    Totally different. You've got form for this type of post. What do you expect? Everyone just to agree and say "ooooooooh int it awful?"

    I'm not writing people off but my trust is very low based on what I have seen since the takeover and appointment of Gauthier Ganaye

    Just read back your original post. It's scathing of everything. It's little wonder you get the replies you do.

    Every time you have one of these rants the majority of the board unites in disagreement. Doesn't that tell you something?

    But to be fair, our budget should be easily enough to get us out of League 1 without resorting to chucking loads of cash at it,as it was two years ago. It's once we get back up that the serious investment will need to start, and indeed I fully expect it to.

    I'm amazed at the u-turn in opinion about the new ownership since the takeover. From being the beginning of a new dawn they've become the beginning of the end. Okay so we didn't go out and sign Messi, Ronaldo, Neymar et al and they cocked up with Morais but let's give them a chance to put it right before calling for them to go.

    I've got a feeling the problem with Knasmüllner was that he was actually injured, or recovering from injury, when we signed him. Up to and including 2nd December he'd started 17 of Admira Wacker's 18 games and come on as sub in the other. He'd scored 12 goals. Admira Wacker had a further two games in December before the Austrian winter break, but he didn't feature in either. Unlikely it was because he'd been tapped up by us as he didn't sign until the very end of January. I reckon he was crocked.

    They're not 'us' though, that's all that apparently matters to some.

    It doesn't matter now but it wasn't Swansea who messed up the McBurnie transfer. Allegedly.

    It got so close to midnight because of Swansea, who were awaiting an incoming signing first. Who made the all-important omission is still open to speculation.

    I don't think there is a u turn with 99% of fans Harry, it's just a few crackpots who can't bear it when everything doesn't go how they want it to and need somebody to lash out at.

    As I said, it doesn't matter now, but I heard a different version...

    But why kick out Bradshaw when he and Moore could both bang in 20 plus next season which could guarantee a playoff spot?
