    This has me well worried as it seems that both he and DM are looking at the long-term and ignoring the short-term!I read his comments that he would not mind if we went down a division and came-back stronger!!Bollocks!Our squad needs a lot of strengthening....get it done now and build for the future from a position of strength.If our owner doesn't want to spend any money,get someone in who does!!

    Didn't hear the relegation word mentioned at all so can't work out the post sentiments. Dealt with the questions about the business side and maybe recycled some old opinions, but we have been here longer than he has.

    For me he said that management want what the fans do but he is the man who has to guide us through it with DM.

    It's about spending on the right players and Moyes has been terrible.

    I wasn't impressed with him. He came out with a lot of business-speak buzz words. He could have been talking about a smartphone factory, not SAFC.
    I'm surprised he didn't mention a "five year plan"
    As for us losing our identity, what the hell does that mean, he's only been here 2 minutes.

    I think internally they've already accepted we're going down and are looking at where we can be in about 3 years.
    I'm OK with that if it works out, because let's face, the revolving door approach to hiring/firing managers, that we've had, is never gonna work.
