This. AND, given the board are multi-multi-multi-millionares, before they leave they should cover all the money they've made this club bleed with their own mismanagement.



No they shouldnt. They should just man up after they have been turfed and continue to support financially in a big way. It will be a sign of their character. Lets see what happens.

If the current board gets rid of Mick it will be a case of the more things change, the more they stay the same. Or, the tail wagging the dog - and any other proverb that might suit.

The board is under pressure to remove a coach the supporters believe is the cause of the problem. But the board might believe the cause is not the current coach, but rather bad player and financial management over the last 20 years. They might rightly think that a stable environment is what the club needs rather than another mindless coup.

Just a thought.

The dog rots from the wagging tail.

If our players can't cope mentally with the idea of a rebuild then we are in deeper poo than anyone may have realised. Tonight will be yet another test and it will be interesting to see the response of the club if we turn in another stinker.

He really should stick to fundamental analysis and listening to what other people have to say for 3-5 years before pretending he has an original thought. He's been awful since he started branching out from financial discussion.

For mine Mick it's much more about his thought process, which seems to be a slightly modernised version of his dad. Not a great place to start politically or managerially.
