But supposedly we already have billionaire owners.

What a fucking lemon.

He's been treated like shit in this situation no doubt about it. It shows how badly run the club is. The other side of that coin is that at a club that was run with even the slightest shred of competence he would have been booted years ago.

Be lucky if there was more than a couple thousand left. They'd already started leaving before the game was finished. Entitled plastic fans with no passion.

You are.

The way they behaved at the League Cup final and the way the media fawned over them was disgusting. What made no sense to me at all was that we'd already beaten them earlier in the season.

With the current ownership we will never move anywhere else other than mid table in the Championship. That is key to the way they operate their business model. Mid table second division with a high turnover in playing staff = lots of commission for the agents that more than likely run the club. This season was the prime example of this. Sitting second in January yet no investment whatsoever even though they pocketed millions from the Armstrong sale months before.

I'm still expecting an announcement in a months time declaring Tony Mowbray will be staying on for another three years.

Stockholm Syndrome at it's finest. I would somewhat disagree with the last sentence though. I think the fans do share a portion of the blame for our situation. It is the fans who should be holding the owners and their business partners to account for the state of the club. The fans should be letting them know that everything that goes on at the club will be put under a microscope and will be held under close scrutiny. If it wasn't for the excellent job that Glen and others have been doing then Anderson and co would still be wandering round Brockhall freely and acting with total impunity. Now they are confined to the shadows. It is the responsibility of the fans to make positive changes happen, not just at our club but throughout the whole game.

I really hate that club. Arrogant wankers.

Not very old school. Real Madrid V Liverpool in the Champions League Final. Neither team were Champions last season.

I think the title of this thread says it all. It will be some reject that we will be lumbered with for at minimum three years.

Relegation then.

That shows just what a lack of brain power there is behind the scenes at this club.

The North West is where the real football fans are

We know Bradley would never try and play a 30+ year old defensive midfielder as a false 9.

Is this allowed? There are clearly naked breasts on show in that photo.

No way would any self respecting person take this job unless they were absolutely desperate or were part of the 'developing young players' (for the benefit of football agents) racket.

Dead Boys - Ain't It Fun

Super Sol at 33/1 I would have thought that most of those guys on that list would have more self respect than to come and work for Venkys.

Preparing for a future in League one maybe?

I don't see any difference between 15th and 8th place. No progress at all.

He certainly wouldn't be able to play as our main striker but if he was played in position more often then I think he would get more goals. Once again Mowbray refusing to see what is blindingly obvious to everyone else.

That Sheffield Wednesday game was so good. I remember them all doing a conga line around the Darwen End.

To be honest I'd be happy to have Colleen in charge at present.
