I wish I had the optimism of some on here.
I just cannot see it changing enough to save us.
Hope I’m wrong…

And he had the gall to say the club had been run like a hobby under Wharton.
It probably was…but to say that and then come and run it like a family playing X-Box… unbelievable.

Less than 2k home fans there today, albeit an Fa cup 1st round tie but staggeringly Low nonetheless.
Even if we achieve the seemingly impossible at the minute and put together some form on the pitch, there will still be roughly 1,000 regulars missing.
How do the club entice people back?
It will be a long and difficult battle.
Some of us on here tried to warn Swann that once supporters left, it would be very very difficult getting them back.
Sadly, the fat man knew better. He’s an astute businessman, don’t y’know, with much knowledge and experience of the entertainment industry.Seems he didn’t do his research.
On the one hand, we can spend our money and quite a lot of it, to sit/stand in a boring, draughty, ageing stadium, with poor sight lines, crap catering, filthy toilets, surly stewards and boring negative football. Oh, and a set of directors who referred to us as morons, couldn’t be *rsed to answer letters and treated us a nuisance afterthought.
Or you can spend money on anything else and end up with more entertainment and satisfaction.Get them to come back?
Aye.

IF they are both crocks, and IF they have been crocks for as long as, it begs the question:
What kind of utter moronic lunatic signed/offered a new contract to them?2 users thanked author for this post.
Realistically think this was the best appointment we could have hoped for from the available options (Nige was never going to come back!). Hopefully he’s able to put some fight and determination in this squad and tells Swanny where to go if he tries to do any meddling!
And then “mutually” agrees to leave, a bit like Hurst did?

Best advice he could get:
Any player reporting injured/sick to have independent testing and fined if not genuine.2 users thanked author for this post.
If you don’t care Alcy why not drift off into the sunset? Instead of repeating the same old same old, we no where your coming from and there’s no coming back for you until swanny leaves.
I’m as entitled to my opinion as anyone, you included.
Opinions are like arseholes, we’ve all got one.
If you don’t like mine, you can jog on.
You don’t have to read it.I suspect, given the diminishing number of supporters through the turnstiles, I’m not the only one had enough of the fat man.

It’s all pretty much academic, though, isn’t it?
Players now are so much more entitled. They seem to do as they please, not following the manager’s instructions.
Then, when sonething upsets them, they sulk and stop trying. There’s more than one manager lost his job because the players played to “get rid”. The HEIGHT of dishonesty, but there you go.Face it guys, we could resurrect Cloughy, Alf Ramsey and Matt Busby and they still couldnt keep this lot up.
Down by Christmas.We need to start updating our satnavs for non-league destinations.

What’s the bet neither get the chance, are allowed to go elsewhere and star there?
There is something or someone seriously wrong at the club and this wastage epitomises it.2 users thanked author for this post.
As for Cox – I have little sympathy for him because he knew what he was letting himself in for when he came.
That said, he can’t be blamed for our league position.
Cox has played the cards Swann has dealt him – full stop. Whether he played them badly is irrelevant – it was a crap hand and he simply couldn’t win.
Well, maybe.
But if you are aware that your opponents ALSO have a crap hand, and you still insist on folding… whose fault is that?
When I played three card brag at John Leggott so many years ago, I won a fair few crap hands by bluffing.1 user thanked author for this post.
