    Dunno how many people feel the same here but for me this mess is Patrick crynes fault. During 2009/14 we hardly heard a thing from him. Satin the background and let Don Rowing basically get on with it. Club were stable and struggling in the championship as we have done since we 're entered it back in 2006. I'd say we had good times and bad ones but we seemed to do ok.

    2013.
    Don retires and we start to hear more and more from cryne, more now in 2015 than ever before. He appoints Maurice Watkins as a so called chairman who we never hear a peep from, Ben Mansford (an ex agent ffs) as CEO with no experience whatsoever in it and appoints Danny Wilson himself an appointment in which I agreed with. Since then we have gone downhill rapid.

    Danny got sacked in February this year and then we appoint LJ, someone who the fans didn't really want but was willing to give him a try. We appoint him as Head Coach???? Why the title?

    Then we hear from Patrick and Ben explaining this appointment and the route the club wants to go down.

    Now I for one don't believe for one minute that all this mess is johnsons fault as I feel there is more board involvement than ever before in this new policy we are supposed to be going on. Why Appoint an agent as CEO? Is it to buy the players for a prospective manager? Is it his contacts? What is it?

    Nobody is prepared to criticize Patrick as he is the "saviour" of the club. No he isn't, hes at fault more than ever for this mess and somebody needs the balls to ask the questions as to why we REALLY are in the sh*t at the minute. Patrick made the decisions. Maybe he's made good ones in the past but this past 18 months he's made bad ones and like a manager who buys players and then gets criticized if they are rubbish, Patrick have LJ a 3 yr deal and the title of head Coach. Head coach to me says that LJ hasn't full control and he won't admit that anyway while in a job. Pi55es me off this club atm. Nobody is untouchable and just like anything in life if you make bad decisions, you live by the sword. Utter crap

    Yes you might well be right. In part at least.

    But he owns the club. He can't just walk away. If anybody offered him even close to market value (and nothing anywhere near what he's spent) I bet he'd walk away gladly.

    Until anyone puts up the dollar the best we can hope for is for him to change all the people running the club as well as the football management team. If he doesn't do that then he will get more and more criticism, fairly.

    As and when he does make changes, getting rid of Mansford, all the coaching team and Maurice 'invisible' Watkins, and bringing in someone no nonsense to run it from the top, maybe he'd be ok.
