Fair enough, sums it up for me.
Didn't know about Sid leaving and hopeful in signing Jamie S.

Straight from the horses mouth , no fudging ,but a good honest assessment of where we are at this present time . But all the chip oil talk and rumours to bed .

Can't resist a dig at his customer base as usual. How many businesses out there consistently slag off parts of their potential customer base. Idiotic for one that is desperate for any income. Apart from that it was actually a good press release with a nice sentiment.

He actually says tge words 'not having a go at anyone' and says he understands the cost of living crisis.
He's just answering people like Scar and Lampy who think he has a money tree.

No one thinks he has a "money tree". They think giving people like Tom Lineham 3 year deals was stupid. And it was. But even if, EVEN IF, he thought that, it's not a good diea for a skint club to slag off any potential customers, is it?

P.S you've no idea who he was on about. So quit with the strawmans. Doesn't surprise me you're first to pop up in defence though.

I'm not defending him. It just seems obvious to me.
And of course he wasn't talking about them directly but they are the ones saying we should invest more when he's saying we are facing massively reduced revenues.

I personally wouldn't have put that comment in, as it was bound to be taken personally by some. But that's him.

Doesn't seem to me that he's had a dig at anybody, just a fair assessment of the situation as it is and some regret about players leaving, maybe it's just in your head squire.

He says not having a go but then has a go and I realise his magic money tree died a long time ago. I am under no illusion regarding the position we are in because we appear to be so for the last few seasons.
It is a catch 22 situation to increase revenue you need to increase the number of supporters but to do this you need a competitive team. It is rare you can do the former without rectifying the latter first.
I am quite happy to let his plan for next season play out so please don’t feel the need to refer to me because he has many more to convince if attendances are down than just two of us plus I would remind you I have not impacted the club financially because I have a season ticket.

Nothing in that statement that I could see was having a dig at anyone , just Honest and open I’d say ,just how everyone wanted it , whether it was what you wanted to hear or not .
