Incognito Owl Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 21 minutes ago, Chris Apolon said: The problem I'm seeing throughout the live updates is Chansiri is coming across as too MUCH of a fan He is providing emotional and subjective soundbites that can be interpreted as right/wrong dependent on individual fans points of view. This is only going to alienate him further to those that disagree He needs to start starting FACTS, provide numbers to back up his arguments, and more importantly provide a BUSINESS PLAN moving forward not just "we want to do x, y, z" We need HOW, WHEN and WHY not his opinions Exactly, well put. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiJ Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Hang on... So a sponsor was going to invest an eight to nine figure sum in the club, but pulled out because of fan negativity on social media? Which one of you was it? 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are nowhere near a big club at the moment but what he should have added is that we have everything to be a big club again in the future. The potential of this club is never going to go away the problem has always been transferring that into action and achieving that goal. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

@owlstalk Posted November 5, 2020 Author Share Posted November 5, 2020 Chansiri on football finance The Government don’t help. We don’t have revenue.

WHEN...same answer WHY...he's told everyone why they can't plah ahead but has told you what the aims are....he didn't say he was going to sack Monk but regardless of who we had as manager we would be inthe same situation they are the FACTS...I don't need a business plan to understand that I disagree; he is a business owner he still needs to have a 12 month - 5 year business plan regardless of market conditions and saying "we always want to win promotion" doesnt cut it, at least with me. If anything the current climate makes it more important not less to have a some kind of strategy in place 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Key Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 8 minutes ago, @owlstalk said: He bought em! Not with the intention that they'd be missing sitters, not tackling and getting themselves booked/sent off. It's a simple concept: once players are on the pitch it's down to them to play to the best of their abilities; the Chairman cannot stop players from making basic and often costly mistakes! 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The noisy minority can be very damaging in many sutuations not just football.
