What is the point of trying to pick a manager when the foundations are falling apart.
It's like building a house and it keep falling down, and you keep building it and the same thing happens again and again. It's the foundations of the club that need fixing first, from Jeff being replaced and a proper footballing structure put in place. If we do go down which unfortunately looks likely I can see us having a major battle not to be relegated again (Look at Sheff Utd at the minute).

Any appointment now has got to be with one eye on playing in the championship with the hope they can get us back within the one season.

If Fosun decide to stick around then the structure of the club must be addressed as soon as possible.

Keir starmer has thrown his hat into the ring can’t run the country so he said he’ll have a go in the football game

You make some good points MRV. To borrow your house building analogy… we have been replacing bricks with wattle and daub since Nuno left. (Probably started before he left actually).
I agree about the risk of going straight through the championship to league 1. After all it happened in 2013 day it?
I still think someone like Rogers might, just might, keep us up if we could get him.

(See my previous post).
Otherwise, yes plan for a quick return from the championship, which would bring people like Robins or even McKenna? into the frame.
If they’d come … obviously.
FWAW.

Why are Fosun still hanging in to us? They are the last Chinese U.K. football club owners in the top 2 tiers.
US owners have been taking over but I’m still not convinced they appreciate ‘soccer’ as much as we do.
Still, could be worse, we could have a Greek owner who knows best.


We have a fridge magnet at home aimed at teenagers but could also relate to Jeff Shi:
Still living with your stupid parents? Quick, get out now while you still know everything! ?

Actually BoS, Starmer might be a decent shout as he knows a lot about round things you can kick, that's all he ever talks.

Might be best to leave politics out of it Boz, my MP is Gavin Williamson - he’s even more incompetent than Jeff. ?
