Popular Post SheffWed Posted March 17 Popular Post Share Posted March 17 I’m sure many people have a friend or family that currently work or have worked at SWFC and know the stories. It’s a mess, good people have left, good people can’t do their job properly. For a Championship club it’s a total shambles. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The exodus started pretty much straight away Really really good people within the club walked away Wednesday fans who worked within the club walked away Long standing capable professional people walked away New people who the chairman brought in - walked away Managers came - walked away 11 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Umeeksk Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 I see only one positive in this: the fact that he, Röhl, is highlighting these areas indicates to me that he recognises he's the only one driving the clown car, and he's trying to fix these issues as well as doing his actual job of managing the team. He shouldn't have to though. It's like having to learn plumbing because your landlord won't fix the pipes. Someone like Chansiri should not be allowed to own a football club. His neglect of the physical infrastructure is baffling. He either has no clue what he's doing, or doesn't care, or both. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take your medicine, learn from it and move on. Re the infrastructure; presume he did his due diligence before taking the job. 39 minutes ago, StudentOwl said: This is taken from weeks before the Ipswich game. Sorry chaps, you’ve fallen into the OP’s trap. A rationale discussion on Owlstalk that suggests reason & logic on the reality of our situation?!?

Sparkwell76 Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 1 hour ago, @owlstalk said: Danny Röhl on the situation he's in at SWFC: 'As an example we have two grass pitches, but then we have to react to night frost and a failing undersoil heating" "Sheffield Wednesday has a very slim structure: It's the chairman, who is also the owner of the club, and then there's me. All decisions are made between the two of us. I'm involved in all transfers, all contract extensions, booking hotels. I have to sign off on it all. This short chain of command is, on the one hand, good to get things done quickly; but it's a lot of work" That's just a small tiny fraction of the conditions Röhl is forced to work under at our club Honestly if you STILL back the current custodian of this football club then I can no explain your approach to it other than you've been misled by other fans, you've not seen the truth, or you are just unwilling to even after being presented with the facts. It doesn't have to be this way Chansiri OUT (and the sooner the better) Maybe I’m wrong, but I honestly don’t think there are that many fans who don’t want more investment, better infrastructure, a long term plan, etc. and therefore I think most fans, if they could wave a magic wand and upgrade Chansiri for a decent owner, would opt for change. I think these posts are just a little bit divisive but that’s just a personal thought. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devonstrix Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 DR is in a pretty strong position making comments which Chansiri may regard as being critical of himself and basic insubordination. DR knows that he is highly regarded by the vast majority of the fan base and there would be an absolute outcry if DC removed him. Mind you, I wonder if Mowbray thought he was on solid ground when he was taking swipes at the Sunderland ownership. The other worry of course, is that DR has already decided, he wants out whatever happens this season. We’ve become used to pre-season upsets under our clueless owner. Imagine how annoying it would be, if DR does as I expect and keeps us up, only for DC to force him out during the summer when the supporters aren’t in the building. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think these posts are just a little bit divisive but that’s just a personal thought. Should we inform the people who we’re upgrading to, before waving these magic wands? Otherwise they might not be too pleased waking up and finding they now own SWFC. Let’s also hope that we’re all ‘wishing for’ the same upgrade as well, when we wave those wands. Otherwise it could be chaos! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
