Let's assume that DC knows what's in his accounts that he hasn't submitted yet. If he has fallen foul of P&S again and he knows we will be hit by yet another points deduction, he will be aware that we will be relegated . He will be thinking, why would I spend on players and a manager when we are already effectively down? I'll save some money. Frightening thought but with various accounts late again it sets you wondering!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t think anything will happen now and we become rudderless. Where you been we have been rudderless for last 3 yeas 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do however think DC will have had genuine abuse on platforms such as Twitter. We have our fair share of knuckle draggers and pigs on the wind up that the balance of probably suggests it’s happened. Whilst it can’t be condoned, any football chairman who doesn’t expect it further highlights his naivety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting, do we have to seek approval? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SallyCinnamon Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Criticism and abuse is different. Abuse is out of order. People have been airing concerns to DC for years but he has very rarely listened. I get the impression he see’s these concerns or criticisms as abuse. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frightening thought but with various accounts late again it sets you wondering!! To break the rules again is bordering on not fit and proper to run a club in my view. Hopefully the EFL don't let him off the hook this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly - he's not on Twitter So it can't be on Twitter that he's seen/faced this 'relentless abuse' So where is it? The same question can be asked 'where did Chansiri see that the fans were wanting Jordan Rhodes?' when the fans get accused of that signing being their fault too 1 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True The worst thing is all that great form and we're still second from bottom Makes the lack of action from the chairman even more worrying 1 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
