Simple question

Sat Jan 16, 2010 11:52 pm

Do the rest of the board at the CCS trust the chairman more than the fans? if the answer is yes then they do not truly represent us. If not then I expect his sacking to be announced in the morning. No more bollux, no more bullshit, no nore spin, no more half truths in the press on tv or internet. Do the right thing and replace our chairman with someone who truly has the best interests of the club at heart not self interest.

Not quite as simple as that.

It's self-evident PMG are the main players behind the scenes. They can force Ridsdale out. They don't as a) they want out, b) they have zero clue running a football club and c) Ridsdale remaining deflects criticism of them.

So are you saying they don't truly represent the fans (paying customers)?

Myth to think otherwise.

If situation was different financially, any board have a duty to the club. After all, fans want the best players around - spending big money on wages, fees isn't necessarily the best way, as we're seeing. Fans still clamour for Routledge, Koumas... to a degree, that hurts the club.

Any club board should consider the interests of the club first and foremost, which may or may not co-incide with fans views. Clearly in our case, the decisions being made are damagig the club.
