End of Season DFP assessment

[Lifelong supporter]

I think Barlow could prove a few people wrong.
Hope so anyway, but doubt if TB or DB will see him do it because I don't think they do attend many games.

They must be paying some look alikes to sit in their seats as well.

Maybe they should have got involved the football side while they were present and they wouldn’t have been surprised when we got relegated

Who said they were surprised?

But this isn't about being involved on the football side , this is about people who keep insisting our owners never turn up and making them out to be the devil incarnate when these are the people who have made the club into what it is. Yes poor on the pitch for 18 months, but remember they've been putting their money in for 16 years.

Devil incarnate now’s whose exaggerating.
Quote from Mr Blunt
While we acknowledged last summer that this would be a period of transition on the pitch, this is not the outcome we anticipated.

So maybe I slightly exaggerated when I put surprised.

[Glyn_Wigley]

Interesting, isn't it? The owners and management get continually lambasted for supposedly not knowing enough about football, and appointing people with limited experience is always seen as awful decisions...yet the words of people on a forum who have absolutely NO experience at all are expected to be treated as pearls of wisdom.

How do you know what people expect?

Well, there is a slight possibility that they posted their opinions just so they can be laughed at. But I doubt it.

[Alan Southstand]

There’s also a slight possibility that there’s only you laughing.

They did not plan for relegation Steve. “So not the outcome anticipated”  is a reasonable quote isn’t it?

Hindsight is a wonderful thing. Wellens could have turned out to be a brilliant manager, many of us thought he would be just what needed. As it turned out he was awful.
The board got it wrong but just the same they might have got it right.
No managerial appointment is guaranteed to be good one.

[Campsall rover]

Look the board have accepted that mistakes have been made and a re set is needed.
They have taken steps to put the wrongs right and first of all set on a HoF.
There will be many changes going on behind the scenes to change of personnel in various areas of the football operation.
Changes have already started on the coaching staff. Medical side will I am sure be looked at with intensive scrutiny and changes made where needed.
The head of recruitment has gone and a new person may be recruited or it could be a role Copps takes on himself as part of his remit.
The recruitment this summer will be looked at with considerable scrutiny I suspect.
Let them get on with it and for heaven sake let’s put the last 16 months behind us. It’s gone. Finito.

I never said or even thought they planned for relegation I used the word surprised and was questioned about it. Mr Blunt said not the outcome anticipated so he was surprised we were relegated. Having thought they had put the right things in place last summer and again in November. I have moved on this summer will show if the revised structure will see us moving on. But the most part will be the players we can bring in to make the difference. We conceded far to many and didn’t score enough. We all hope the past 18 months are behind us and we start moving up again.

Exaggeration? Have you not read some of the comments that are aimed at these people on twitter?

The problem with all of this is that it continues to sow discord and printing/typing stuff that is factually incorrect helps absolutely no one!

I presume you believe this doesn't include yourself?

As I haven't commented on the decisions the club has made, or put forward any opinions of my own on the matter it can certainly include myself for all I care.

You have never been slow in putting forward your opinions forward on this football related forum. So where does your pearls of wisdom experience come from?
