It's been a good season...

[Rob17896]

So clearly it hasn't been, but if you were told we had to go through this process to force the hand of Moshiri into getting rid of Walsh, Kenwright, Elstone and a clearout of the squad would you have accepted it?

The season is a write off and has been the worst I remember for a while in terms of how much of a mess we appear to be on and off the field, so I'm starting to look ahead to possible positives. As long as the names mentioned above are gone, along with Allardyce at the end of the season and we have a clear plan going forward then it hasn't been in vain.

What other positives can you see resulting from our poor season?

Kenwright ducked and dived to keep us at the top level whilst skint. When he did find the buyer he sold his majority. Whilst we still wait for a trophy, people massively underestimate what that man along with Moyes achieved.

I said from day 1 that Moshiri needed tog et rid of Elstone and Kenwright. He didn't. And, now, here we are.


Is EVERYTHING down to them? Obviously not. Walsh and others play a huge role in all this. But Leaving those two in ANY sense of "authority" completely undermines ANYTHING we want to do going forward. They have no idea how to be successful at anything.

pardon the phrase and, please, don't take this personally but get [Poor language removed]. Kenwright had the opportunity many times to allow us to move on. He never wanted to relinquish his train set. We could have been where City were if he would have acted in the best interest of the club, instead we are struggling to maintain the 'best of the rest'.

DCL and John Joe Kenny have learnt alot

I think I've read anything ever recorded about Gylfi Sigurdsson in exhaustive, cat-endangering detail thanks in no small part to 'Mr Register Red Flag' @RickyRider

That's a positive.

His candle burnt bright, cant wait for his return.

How do you think we will know it is him?!?!?!?

Koeman happened, fixture list happened, Europa league qualifiers happened, injury crisis happened, poor recruitment happened, interim manager happened, Sam Allardyce happened, and yet after that perfect storm we’re 9th and looking good for 7th. In amongst all the kopite media glee that we were going down it’s actuslly turned out that we’re still better than most in this league even at our worst.

Moshiri's incompetence has destroyed any good will he had and he's up against it now.

My view is that - more than a change of manager/coaching staff/CEO...which are all required, of course - we need a new owner. This feller Moshiri is a busted flush. And when this stadium scheme fails I see him quickly selling up.

John Frum, he come.

 

[sheedys big toe]

He's not pumping in money. The club;s money has been used on the squad. Any cash he's spent is to buy shares and buy debt which he'll convert to shares.

He's not having mine

 

[Zezti]

I remember some months ago there was a thread about spending a season in the championship to get rid of the senior management. Thankfully it's not come to that [yet]. I think there are no guarantees that whoever comes in next won't be worse. It's a gamble I'm not sure I'd want to take.

 

[Gwladys St. Glory]

Seeing Niasses face every time he scores is wonderful and I'm glad he has been given a chance. He reminds me of one of those kids in a Comic relief video where the aid truck comes rolling into town, it's that level of excitement he demonstrates.

You're a disgusting person...

crying, though...

 

[gonetomorrow]

Positives from the season? Well, in recounting Mrs Lukaku's trip to the African witchdoctor, the Mosh-man presented me one of the best laughs in many a football season. They say laughter is good anti-aging therapy...so that's a positive right there.

You use fewer muscles to smile than to frown.
Even fewer to booooooooooooooo.

 

[PeregrineT]

Think about how much potential we have for 4th when we can reasonably finish 7th in a season like this.

The best case scenario? Finish 7th, get a Europa league spot, and still get everyone fired.

 

[ilikecheese]

If we somehow parlay a new stadium during this crapshow of a spell in the club I reckon we have a positive.

Joe Anderson winding up kopites is a massive bonus if it comes off.
