    Wow,that's a lot of employees for a league 2club.You can discount the associate directors,as they pay for their positions,but it's still an awful long list.

    More backroom staff than players but oddly no fitness coach which may explain a lot

    And if all of those positions are included in the overall budget, it's no wonder we've never got any money left for any decent players!

    This is one of quarms about the interview process, just exactly who will be doing the interviewing and decision making.

    The current make up of the board reads like it will be Sparks and Sparks only

    He might get advice or assistance from people that have paid to have some involvement, or from one of the honorary board members.... The best we can hope for at the minute is that Lawn is heavily involved.

    The figure quoted is the playing budget

    If he had any self respect he’d walk - but I don’t expect him to.
    I don’t think Rupp would get rid of him - hence why we’ll always be in a mess!

    Why waste the learning he has achieved. He most certainly needs help. Warnock is a good suggestion, but will he come and will Rupp fork out the required funds!

    He needs better friends and advice than he has with the guy at Peterborough,

    I asked you this yesterday and you didn't reply so I'll ask you again. Would you like to see someone with an experienced footballing head come in to work alongside and assist Ryan?

    Depends what help people want for him? A CEO shouldn't need help to be a CEO. Granted, if its specific development areas then all well and good but I don't think that is what people are advocating.

    If it helps why not but Sparks doesn’t need it and less than two years into the job the first of which was a success and the second a failure not down to him and he has acted decisively

    I don't know how much clearer you want people to make it. Sparks is doing a decent enough job on the operational side of running a business but the footballing side of things, not so much. No shame in that, he doesn't have a background in football, let's get someone in who does to deal with that side of things and let Ryan concentrate on what he's good at.
