Well said Paul. Your comments about Dyche being a phoney, are bang on the money.
I was at the game and it was a very, very hard watch. We all knew that if Arsenal had scored there would be no way back and, quite frankly, I’m getting a bit tired of going to away games (and now many home games, too) hoping we can escape with a point.
Let’s hope everything goes smoothly this week and we can, at last, look forward to professional leadership and decision making in the club.
Hi fellas,
Moyes plays into the narrative of keeping us up and stability. He doesn’t represent a new era, he doesn’t represent what we all clearly want moving forward. It’s actually no different to what the old regime want right now and that’s enough to put me off.
Next week we are set to get BMD handed over to us by Laing O’Rourke, we are also set to announce new owners. This opportunity to rebuild MUST be taken and taken immediately. There is no time to waste. We have to set aside the old thinking, set aside the old ways and free ourselves of the old guard.
We have to step out and step up. We will not have the funds to satisfy what Moyes might want now in favour of what a new manager might want in the months to come. It has to start straight away and that manager, director of football, owners and fans have to have a plan that will see us develop from Day One.
This squad is far better than Dyche has them playing and has far more potential if you allow them to play some football.
I want TFG to take those keys from Laing O’Rourke and Moshiri to be nowhere near the publicity. I’m sick to death of hearing about the legacy Moshiri has left us with. He inherited a club with £54m of debt and he’s leaving us with £600m+ of debt, a failed misguided project, lousy decision making on managers, players and board and a squad that dramatically needs replenishing and improving.
I absolutely thank him for STARTING the BMD project BMD but it’s come at an enormous cost to the club, the squad and the supporters. In truth MSP, 777, RMF, TFG, Downing & Bell have collectively enabled it, kept it going and seen it through. He had the idea of moving us but if you listen to Dan Meis – he wasn’t a fan of it, it was actually Blue Bill that convinced him to go ahead with it.
I for one look forward to this coming week ending. I predict TFG will be announced on Wednesday and we will see a grand handover to TFG on Friday 20th.
