Forget your "sustainable" bullshit . The most important thing you need to do is sack artell and now.

We're is the FA cup money ?

Were is the conteh money? Why wasn't this invested in January?  You haven't invested in the team in the slightest, you let dave bring in players who can't get in there own match day  18, no one wants this club relegated apart from you by the looks of it.  Sack this clown and tonight.

We drop glennon for a bloke who looks like he's been dragged off the street. We sign a teenager from
Coventry whoopee fuckin do. We sack hurst and wait 6 or 7 weeks in to bring in a fuckin man who sets his team out to concede 5 goals a game, he's clueless.

You didn't invest in the team in January.  You didn't bring the right man in to replace hurst.

This is all on you.

What degree of culpability do we ascribe to the owners for our current predicament?

From my point of view the core requirement for a GTFC owner is to facilitate the long term stability of the club at league level. Aligned to this is the requirement for the board to continue to attract inward investment to the club to maintain and enhance competitiveness and progression.

Everything else is superfluous unless these core conditions are satisfied.

Don't get me wrong the short term football fortune we had through promotion and the cup run was great  but once again we sit on the precipice where those gains look to be lost.

Jury's out I'm afraid.

It's time to admit you got it wrong big time. Pay Artell off and let Ben & Shaun take over till the end of the season with Mission Survival.

Have a new man in place when the season ends.


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

This is probably what should have happened in November but overconfidence in the squad probably paid a part. Maybe the change in style midseason was too much?

Exactly that.

As owners it's great getting to the quarter finals in the FA cup in a fairytale.  Now it's when the sh1t hits the fan and its not going well.

Now you need to step up.

I feel sorry for the owners. I think they’ve tried to do the best by the club and it hasn’t paid off. How could they have know Hurst would urine the budget up the wall with absolute shite. As for Artell, I was also hopeful he could turn us around and bring us entertaining football. I don’t see how the owners could have known how bad he would be. I’m confident the owners will do the right thing and get rid.
