Quoted from nealeardleyscrossing


Our bubble won't burst whilst we have our chairman, Most fans seem happy with Michael Appleton, especially as we have a team now that is designed to play football and he clearly gets his teams to keep it on the deck so it suits the personnel we have with Morrell, Payne, Andrade and Walker etc. Others interviewed were more direct and we don't want to go back to that - I am sure it grates on some of your fans as you are clearly a long ball team now as opposed to the football I saw you play in the late 80's.

Plus we paid very little to get him, so the near 2 million compensation we got for both Cowleys will help, as this league is completely different and I am surprised by the step up in quality, so we can splash in Jan to make sure we stay in this league.

Well the chairman was on there asking for the fans to stick by the team as it’s imperative for securing further investment to continue progressing. Imagine that, winning everything in sight for 3 years then after a few dodgy results having to ask your fans to keep turning up.

The bitterness towards the Cowley bros from the fans is also hilarious and astounding. Taking them from 2.5k gates to 9k, 2 league titles, a Wembley win and an FA Cup QF. Why they think they were owed more by the pair of them is mind boggling. It’s turned out they applied for the Huddersfield job. How dare they..?

Anyway that’s enough on them. Hilarious circumstances now which everyone saw coming a mile off.

Looks now that the Cowley’s jumped ship before they were pushed.  

Or is it rats leaving a sinking ship?  I never can remember.  😄😁😁😁😁😁
