Carol would be better keeping her own counsel. No open letters, no speaking to fans and crying in front of them.

She should really be holding Flitcroft, the man she's entrusted the football side of her business to, accountable as to why the football side of the business is failing. 

I agree G but if she kept her own counsel the same fans would be having a pop at her for not being open and transparent.  Carol  can't win in this situation, she's damned if she does and damned if she doesn't. Who'd want to own a football club?

I reckon Flitcroft will be gone by the start of the 2024/25 season, now is not the time for more strife at the club.

I can't believe some fans wanting the Shanahans gone, do some fans really want the likes of Smurthwaite or the con men back as owners 'cause that's what would likely happen.

A rocket up the ars is good with a team that is competing well. A team that isn't competing well, it could break them to be honest.

They are already broke. Nice hasn't worked.

Exactly! A team that is competing needs reassurance & positivity. A team that has been awful all season with a manager who previously who cuddled them & talked nonsense need absolutely drilling! Imagine Fergie in that interview 😆

Your so negative its unbelievable. He needs to be as positive as possible for his team to succeed. 

The positivity tactic isn't working, Patrick 🤨

The DoF needs to go now to give the new DoF time to prepare for the summer window.

Also to give them a good chance to do a root and branch inspection of what on Earth is going on.

Flitcroft out ASAP. 

[Rory]

Sickening game of football. Tragic. Must have been close to 30 blokes on the pitch today. Not many of them should be paid.

Crap.

Pointless mentioning it, it’s never going to happen.

Plenty of time as or after the season ends.

The quote, "Choose your battles wisely" comes to mind.

At least our toilets will be safe from Sjoke fans, as we will be in Div 2.

What toilet's

I don't want Carol gone. She has done more for the football club than most people will ever do.

However, her naivety when it comes to Flitcroft doesn't do her any credit.

She fronted up when Clarke got sacked. Not Flitcroft.

Flitcroft has fronted up this time but with an in house interview, not with the two local media organisations who have asked for interviews with him.

Carol speaks out because she feels she has to I suppose, but the real culprit behind all of this hides away.

But then the new DoF has zero time to identify targets and assess the current squad? Would be a disaster. Be working blind.

So we invest in a really good squad? We then don't have enough money to get the things that will give us more money for the championship. 

So we invest in a good squad to get us into the Championship. If we don't get there first then the rest is pointless.

The ones that are coming in close season.  Unless Fraudcroft has anything to do with it - then he will be saying.  Sorry guys and girls, but the builders we were getting at the last minute did a job at another site and we ran out of time to find any other builders.  New season is starting, so put up with the bucket we got you.  However, keep your legs crossed as there is always next close of season to get new toilets.
