It amazes me how when things go wrong some people always try and put a good spin on Bramhall. My thoughts only

My thoughts only You're missing the point, quite deliberately no doubt, that the people who are to blame for the mistakes should shoulder the blame. If Bramall is at fault then he should accept that. But certain supporters seem to think the Demi-God can't do anything wrong and will do their level best to absolve him.

No, if you actually read my post you will see that I did suggest that if the current Saint (as you call him) has done wrong then he should shoulder that responsibility. I suppose spending £14m on our football club doesn't give him any credibility in your eyes.

In your eyes one is a good guy and the other someone to be vilified? I am not suggesting that someone who has spent £14 on our club has no credibility, I am suggesting he has no ambition. There is a huge difference.The "demi god" also put a substantial amount of his money into DRFC. A much smaller percentage of his money as well and he had ambition. That is the difference.

Savvy. No, I wasn't there. And whilst I fully accept that we're turning on some shockers at the moment, we're still not remotely at the level of consistent underachievement that we saw in 2007, when the (then) most expensive squad in the club's history (primarily funded by Watson and Bramall) managed to pick up 45 points in 38 depressingly one-dimensional matches.And note. We didn't sack the manager, despite a run of results vs expectation that was FAR worse than anything we've seen under Dickov. I'll admit again that I was screaming for him to go because I couldn't see a plan. All I could see was sterile, punchless, pointless (literally most weeks) football. Fat lot I knew. Fat lot most people know when they start giving opinions on managers' performances.
Wasn't just the KM 2's money, it was JR's too. Now JR isnt involved the KM2 seem reluctant to invest in tge club, and seem content to mothball it. The future looks pretty dull under the KM2, and I expect we will stagnate in league 1 at best. It's no good having vast wealth with no ambition.
I personally do wonder about TB/DW monetary input, SM said earlier TB had "Put in" 14million, but from personal wealth of 500 million that's a mere 0.028%. That being spread over what, 8 years. That would be the equivalent of your average supporter ( like me ) putting in £280 a year, for same 8 year period.Its when you see other local clubs "Owners" putting in fairly decent amounts for "Transfers" that irks most supporters.Don't get me wrong, I am appreciative of what the "Owners" have done in the past, but cant help thinking the pot is too "Dry" now. Just my opinion of course, and if I had the 500 million as opposed to TB, then 1/5 of that would be "Investment Marked",( similar to his "Terry and Liz" fund ), then all supporters be happy.
