    Stop listening to false rumours and turning them in to truth. You will feel much better.

    Absolute WINNER!

    At the very least just be honest and set realistic expectations.

    Talk about putting a spin on things, you’re the absolute worst.

    The play off final and last years near miss was nothing whatsoever to do with Edins strategy. He’s openly on record as saying that he wouldn’t be able to implement it until his second summer due to time constraints.

    I didnt hear the £100,000k comment from @Ricc@Ricc, we shall see, @Storck@Storck is suggesting half this season and half next season if that is the case it would make sense to do the drains then the rest next closed season.

    I get that his record of achieving promotion is what attracted us to him Ronnie.

    it was always a bit pie in the sky to expect a miracle from him and this group of players and secure promotion this season.

    I guess it's pretty obvious why he only committed to the end of this season.

    You’re right in saying that it’s more about how you spend the money.
    However, given how word gets around in football circles every man and his dog will know what a basket case we are at the moment and as such we will struggle to spend wisely.
    At least Grayson will be a draw for players at this level.

    I didn't technically mention they aren't doing deep drainage. I never said anything about what theyre doing - I just quoted a figure and said it's not the entire pitch. which is true.

    I think that they were hoping that his record as a promotion specialist would work for us in the short term like it did for him at Huddersfield.

    Wait and see. The reason they initially considered doing it in 2 halves was because they couldnt do the work in time if we got in the play-offs. They now have 3 extra week in which to complete the work.

    The same questions from the same posters, BC.
    Most of us can see all the issues, and possible answers, some can't see the questions - even their own :(

    It was under Edins watch - he brought in McCall, he helped McCall assemble a competitive squad from jusy 8 contracted players when he took over, he opened the cheque book for Wyke.

    You are the worst for denying facts.

    No idea. Just been told, Edin is staying, he's great to work for but is a stickler and a bit of a process person (which has rubbed a lot of staff up the wrong way) but that there are big changes coming in the next few weeks. He's putting everything he has into it apparently and isn't prepared to walk away or sell.

    Trouble is Benito, they wanted Lewis Hamilton to win the Grand Prix driving a clapped out Mini Metro. ;)

    Full restoration MUST take place now. the 50% neglected will cost even more next year due to further decay. If we can't afford it now - then how can we complete it next year ?
