I was looking forwards to the match today , with my son . He is back to Uni and this was the last match before he goes back South. Have never said this before but McKnight really needs to go ASAP. Today's debacle is the last straw. Cost cut cost cut , what about stopping the cost cutting and bringing funds into the business by generating new revenue streams. Agreed, playing today's game would have been a start! |

Oh dear. Where to begin? Firstly big disappointment like everyone else that we didn't play today. With the momentum we are building up (and the luck we finally seem to be getting on the pitch), 3 points seemed a good bet. My worry is all these games in hand means lots of midweek games - and we do seem to struggle with our fitness and small squad when we have games close together. The other thing today proved (again) was how bad a decision it was to get rid of the groundsman. As predicted by most of us on CH, it is costing us dearly. So far McFarce had saved one months of Liam's salary. Well, the costs are already mounting, probably beyond that amount. Muppet. He's also achieved a new record of being the first CEO to be of less strategic importance to a football club than the guy who looks after the pitch. Muppet. Finally, this thread shows again why McFarce has to go. Would the game have gone ahead with Liam? Don't know, but it doesn't matter - it's McFarce's fault. And this is the problem. Everything that goes wrong is blamed on him, whether it is his fault or not. Anything that goes right will always be inspite of him and not because of him. And whatever staff are left at County aren't daft - they know this too. Any other business where the entire workforce has lost confidence in the leader (and, in fact, see him as a bad joke) would have booted the CEO ages ago. If, as a leader, the people who work for you have lost all respect for you, then you are stuffed. And us fans are his 'customers' and (in effect) shareholders and we have lost all trust and respect, so he is stuffed again. And this never going to change. He's like a bit of chewing gum that is stuck to your shoe - you've no idea how it got there, you want to get rid, but it just won't go. Every day you curse your carelessness at allowing this trash to ruin a perfectly decent (if slightly battered) pair of shoes. Oh yes, and you want to punch the person who spat it out on the floor in the first place. Muppet. Our next hymn is Number 254 'The day thou gavest Lord is ended'.  |

Everything that goes wrong is blamed on him, whether it is his fault or not. Anything that goes right will always be inspite of him and not because of him. that's absolutely right. there will have been stuff within this set of measures that was needed, that worked well. if we've made half million pound plus operating losses over the last two seasons then there was a clear need for huge reductions if the club was to survive. unfortunately, if you have the 'revolutionary' managerial appointment, the no-recall on loans followed by inevitable injury crisis, the relegation to regional football, the move to part time.......all in the space of a few months, and further worsened by "the nineties were the bad toimes" and other choice soundbites, then he's always going to be a figure of ridicule and antipathy. a very difficult job, but one that has inarguably been done quite badly. |
