Drama, Dispute, Exhilarating Highs and Crushing Lows

It feels like any success we may have is despite the board, not because of it. Sad it’s come to this really.

 

Hope he does too, I think he's a good manager/coach

 

I think the owner has been a mill stone round the clubs neck for decades and has severely hampered our chances of success on the field
The stadium has improved out of all recognition to when I was a kid, but it seems to me that all that matters to Steve Lansdown is making money and being content with being also rans

 

He does put money in most seasons to cover losses, but I wonder whether that’s only necessary because of poor decision making by the “board”. I do believe his heart is in the right place, just he’s a bit clueless about running a football club.
