There’s no point debating Thompson’s team selections Theres no point debating whether the players are good enough There’s no point debating the tactics. The culture of any organisation is set at the top. The strategy is defined at the top. The big decisions are made at the top. Chansiri is the man at the top, an alleged control freak at that, so the buck for all of this stops with him. The poor recruitment, the head coach out of his depth, the squad that mostly know theyll be playing elsewhere next season, the lack of any consistent style or brand name of football from one season to the next... it’s all ultimately down to Chansiri and he has failed spectacularly. He needs to hand over control, and preferably ownership, or the club we all love is in danger of dying. I genuinely believe that. So the only thing worth discussing is what can we do about it? Good post. Says it all really......... Link to post Share on other sites

doubleo 1,801 Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 28 minutes ago, latemodelchild said: Said it in a few threads but today's performance was the least of my worries. I genuinely fear that we won't have a club within 5 years, probably more like 3. DC will hold on until there is nothing left then walk away back to his life and family money. He is incapable of listening to anyone who knows what they are doing. The fact that he has followed advice over and over that has led us to this point shows me that he cannot or will not listen to anyone other tham paxo or whatever his name is. Their names will be forever remembered as the 2 who killed Sheffield Wednesday football club. Agree completely. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Dunkstar 1,216 Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 So...this goes one of 3 ways. 1 - Chansiri somehow has a road to Damascus moment and decides to change the structure of the club, bin Paxo, step back from the day to day running and appoint competent people who know how to run a sizeable football club. 2 - Sell the club at a huge personal loss to persons as yet unknown. 3 - Call it a day and liquidate the club whilst retaining ownership of Hillsborough. 1 would be the best but most unlikely option at this point. I can think of one previous example of this, that bring the Venkys at Blackburn. That was an absolute circus for the first few years but has finally settled down now into something resembling a well run club. 2 is the next most favourable, but something of a lottery in terms of who he sells to. 3 is something we have to be careful of inciting whilst trying to bring about 2. If life is made too difficult for Chansiri we run the risk of him effectively saying sod this I'm off but I'll burn it to the ground on the way out. Hopefully 1 or 2 but 3 really is a huge concern. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Daz 3,040 Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 Needed to appoint a manager who understands struggle (Cook) and to bring in a decent attacking midfielder and striker in the window. Did neither and we will pay for it. L1 is a league where you need bottle and character - we have neither so I fully expect a struggle next year too as we have a bunch of rabbits in headlights. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
SallyCinnamon 26,079 Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 The problem is we are far too apathetic as a fanbase. And there’s really not a lot we can do during national lockdown. Perfect for DC really. Fans unable to protest and no fans in the ground to show their frustration. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

The wheels for option 3 are already in motion in my opinion. Securing the ground has put DC in a good position for when it goes belly up. The cynic in me believes that was part of his plan when poo does hit the fan. DC comes across incredibly stubborn and he won’t leave without a struggle. I’m sure of it. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Athelwulf 4,454 Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 1 hour ago, OwlerIT said: PAXO out Yes, exactly. He's the one who's "advised" Chansiri how to spend his money. All Chan the Man was ever any good for was providing the money, and that's all. He needed someone to run the club, and a manager who could choose which players to recruit. Paxo is the one IMO who can take the lion's share of the blame. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
shez owl 1,597 Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 It’s very simple..Every organisation needs leadership , structure, a strategy, a plan, culture and values... this organisation has none, so will fail and continue to fail until it changes or dies. I can’t see a change coming anytime soon. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

The greatest chairman ever would put people who know how to run a football club run the club. The greatest chairman ever wouldn't think the sun shines out of Piaxo backside! The greatest chairman ever wouldn't have signed these players. Edited February 27 by jonnyowl Link to post Share on other sites
