Who is putting up the stumbling block to our getting new players, either on loan or permanent? I keep hearing it's Ritchie saying he wants to give current players the chance, then I hear it's Mr Shepherd who won't condone money being spent, then I hear of spats between Messrs Shepherd and Cryne. For the sake of our beloved club why are we being treated like mushrooms, kept in the dark and fed ****? Please oh please can somebody in charge take a reality trip and see that the present situation cannot go on. It seems to me that some heads need banging together and some sense and perspective introduced, because all this crap (not the players, I must stress) we are having to endure is driving enormous wedges between those in control and us the paying public. Something earth shattering has got to be done, otherwise we'll be dead and buried by Xmas.
