But the question remains, who is there to replace him? I'm afraid the demise of the club is in correlation with that of the town, and I honestly can't see it changing.
The £3m 'benign' debt is a milstone around our necks. The only way JF would write that off is if the supporters genuinely turned on him and forced him out, we've seen he cannot work with anyone else at the top, ask Mike Parker or even the lottery winners. I do believe it is time for a change, JF needs to name his price, stick to his word and write off the debt then put the club up for 'sale'. I've said it for a long time, our standing in the FL as an also ran in the bottom tier is unacceptable, we should be a league one side with out support but I don't think it's OTT to say we are already looking at a relegation fight and the prospect of non league football once more is outrageous. I've almost had it with Town, for the first time in 30 years as a regular, I am so disillusioned I am genuinely thinking of walking away. I do not believe the clubs ambition matches my own. I am realistic, I don't expect us to win the champions league, or even compete in the championship but we go to Accrington Stanley tomorrow night, I think we'll get spanked. It's Accrington Stanley FFS.

Who knows who it could be? Leeds have gone through shite for as long as we have. They hadn't heard of Radrizzani a few months back, look at he spirit there now. A different scale to us, but the principle is still the same, There are millions of rich people out there we haven't heard of. Stop acting like they're aren't any at all. They do exist. Don't buy that theory. Purely coincidence. Barnsley, Burnley, Fleetwood. Donxaster, Scunthorpe, Burton as towns have suffered massively in the past few decades and it's not affected their football clubs. Blackpool has really suffered and despite a boycott and Oyston, they got promoted..

I wonder what their Budget is, only joking but proof that they are top because they are getting it right on the pitch, have great team spirit but can they keep the moment going with such a small squad.

Funny thing is they have Kayden Jackson who has 5 goals already this season, the same kayden who allot on here thought was rubbish and not worthy of our team.

he wasnt any good for us, he played probably 180 mins of anything like the form he is showing now, the first game of the season and two sub appearances...other than that he looked completely lightweight and out of his depth every other time he played.

One has to ask why? He's not the first player to leave here and prosper elsewhere.
