If that means another sorting of the wheat from the chaff then so be it. Enough mistakes have been made that the cassons must have learnt a little by now. I’m still of the belief that without them we wouldn’t be where we are. But with them it looks like we’re taking steps back. Get Pennock in And kick on out of this slump. BLUEBIRDS.
Well said! :scarf:

A chief executive of a football club doesn't need a football brain They should allow the football manager or director of football or whatever to get on with that side of things.

The CEO should have a good understanding of marketing, business. project management and commercial management skills. Things are slowly getting better, in my opinion.

Well said Bingo..

All we need to do now is let Andrew crack on, leave the football to our new manager and progress as a team on and off the pitch and stands! As people have said..we are barrow and we do well together when our backs are to the wall! Lets hope the idiots who have been intent on causing unrest will finally let go..? Either get behind yout team or jog on..

I think we would be naive in our current predicament to ignore the fact. That In the absence of the strakers, Riley, cox, Ogden and now Moore junior casson has had to do a lot more work than he would have originally planned for. It’s easy to throw more mud at him and say it’s all his fault but don’t be an idiot and ignore the fact it is very hard bordering on impossible to run a football club. Correctly! I personally think I would find it hard. Now the only steps we need to take are to appoint a whole new back room staff. We need a manager. He needs to bring in his own team and we need some directors proper ones of footballing matters who have done that job before. No newbies. No have a go hero’s. And no more mercenaries.

He is and I do think this guy has the business tools t do the job right.. YES he has made mistakes but he has been frank and humble enough to admit this BUT it will be a valuable learning curve to make sure the same mistakes are not made.
He is fairly open to suggestions and advice, some taken and some not.. lets put to bed the last few months and get behind the guy who has quite simply been spinning too many plates

Give Andrew Casson a chance! Okay; he's young and inexperienced and it's a learning curve for him. But if he's willing to learn and has passion and committment for the club, everything should work out fine in the long term.

Besides; if you were the owner of a football club and you resided across the other side of the world - wouldn't you want a family member running things for you? Stands to reason.

The appointment of Moore was shit, his comments in the paper saying moore wasn't a bad appointment was shit and I cannot think of one positive he has contributed to this club.

Moore was sacked because he underperformed - why should the young pretender be any different!

Book a flight, time to go junior,
Don't you look like a prize plank now!!!

Rome wasn't built in a day... Go hang your head in shame!!

But on the plus side... NOW GET BEHIND THE BLOODY CLUB!!!!! :scarf: :scarf: :scarf:
