DCC disclosed we would have an issue, asked for assistance with the 1867 thing and talked about selling the club and wasn’t drawn on sacking luhukay. Since then he’s sorted the manager, hasn’t sold up and seemingly has a plan to keep us out of a full embargo/points deduction scenario which was the worst case at the forum. He didn’t have to do any of this. Its a separate point to the dialogue with the league which was also discussed and I believe that as the EFL talk to all the clubs on this. By plan you mean selling the ground? You are right he didnt have to do that but it was his strategy that put us there. Not sure he can be patted on the back for that.

Unlikely Quite, should have looked at it before then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It did and ideally we would stay out of bother via other means but it’s correct that many clubs are now falling foul of these farcical and arbitrary rules. At least it is seemingly being rectified.

Coltrane Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 2 hours ago, Mycroft said: Some seem to bask in the glory of been able to tell you I told you so, and then when we are having relative success come out with "Make the most of it, it will never last". Its ingrained in them to find the negative. If someone backs it all up with figures and evidence then fair enough and also offer a realistic way out of the "mess" but to sit back and whinge and moan is not bringing anything to the table. If they can do better then get organised and buy the man out. Stock answer from you there crofty.... £180 million for a mid table championship club tho...

hawksmore Posted July 5, 2019 Share Posted July 5, 2019 2 hours ago, Mycroft said: I'm OK with the status quo. Didn't think you would do anything, carry on whinging then. There are loads of things you can do, get networking, get together with like minded fans reach out to possible buyers or investors. Its not whingeing though is it? It’s having a discussion, engaging with opposing views and applying some critical thinking. Seemingly, something you’re finding quite difficult to engage with at the moment trying to reduce any points made to ‘what are you going to do about it’ is very basic and petulant. I find it so odd on here, the mentality of some, that you must be positive about everything going on at the club and any attempt to discuss issues is just shot down and dismissed. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently not, the reason why we are at the point we have reached is because Chansiri cannot do as he chooses and has to find alternative avenues. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok it says nothing new really buy its the same stuff being said over and over. Lack of information from the club, lack of turnover from transfers, selling the club to himself makes no sense whatsoever, not sure why people applaud DC, the club isnt run well in my opinion. Cant fault his pockets and effort but that doesnt necessarily mean a good outcome. Thats my view. I may be wrong of course. Tbh you can find the same level of expertise in the Boardroom section than what was stated in the programme the expertise is simply that this Maguire chap doesn't have a real job and can spend the day getting Companies House alerts and doing some nice pie charts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
