No doubt many of us are thinking about it all far too much today. And when doing that it’s easy to over dramatise and also reflect too much, so with apologies for the reality of this here are my current points.
Firstly, the board has no football intelligence, but then why they have not gone and got some is utterly unforgivable.
And along the same lines of consideration, where are the “big name / big hitters” calling this shit out ?
Where is Mabbutt, where is Perryman, Roberts, even your Ginola’s and Klinsman’s ? Even Ossie, for Christ sake someone say something about these bastards and back up the fan base. It’s deafening in here. Even Levy could say / do something. But nope. It’s in the hands of Flange and some gooner Linked in hire. What do we stand for if that’s what we stand for ?
Secondly, this relegation situation almost seems to be designed and planned for. As each and every one of the cock ups are both predictably anvoidable and baked in to fail, but they happen anyway. Why ? Does the fan base not in anyway effect their ability to make a competitive decision. Likely we really are the inconvenience we appear to be ?
Third, make no mistake about it the football club is utterly fucked if relegated. It’s not funny at all. The biggest irony being that all that PSR / FFP shit Levy loved will make us - at best - a yo yo club for years to come.
And if we go down, are we seriously competing against Birmingham/Wrexham/Boro ? Clubs built to compete in a competitive environment, with ownership that wants to win. I doubt it. I doubt it very much. That lovely cash from the events will be ring fenced and we will drown in the debt and spiral. Why, well the reason is that we are self funding. And that won’t change
Finally, and this is my ultimate wish as of 17:23 today. It is so embarrassingly tragic and predictable now and with regards to what comes next that we would be far better off to let them close the club down. The pricks at ENIC / Tavistock have already won anyway.
