Re: Keates isn't the man to take us forward.

All we keep hearing is we're in a better position off field which we are undoubtedly are but on the field has been a disaster. Isnt that just as important, that's why the club exists? When is that going to be counted in judging how we are progressing? The off field stability seems to papering over this all the time. For me it's wearing thin. There's a lack of accountability and a defeating silence around this. |

The accountability has always rested with the manager. Should those who appoint the manager be held to task? Without doubt but all the managers the Trust have appointed have been sound enough...on papers. Perhaps Keates didn't have the required experience but I can point you to countless managers who never had detailed experience but have achieved great things. |

Re: Keates isn't the man to take us forward.
I think 'disaster' is a bit much when describing the on the field fare.
Yes, it appears stifled and lacking ideas and you honestly can't see where a goal would come from. BUT IMO we are only one or two tweaks away from a consistent performing side. A Creative midfielder is definitely needed. Whether we actually have that player already (Kelly, Leo) and they just need to find that spark (or be played in the best position) remains to be seen. But we can't take too long trying to find out. |

People may point to Huw Jenkins at Swansea implementing a way of thinking from top to bottom. It doesn't matter who manages the club, the philosophy is the same. However, we're not Swansea and haven't got a pot to urinate in. The majority of our income goes to the first team so it's impossible to build a youth set up. This element of the club is a mess. |

I guess what I'm saying is how long do we continue as we are if nothing happens on the pitch. Say we have another 4 years like the last 4 what then? Is it all just swept under the carpet, the board stays the same and we just bumble along or is there a trigger when changes above the manager are made? Is it a coincidence so many managers struggle here? |

Surely we should at least be arranging regular friendlies against other club's reserve teams?

Re: Keates isn't the man to take us forward.
Indeed, and those in charge need to take some accountability for that, playing the blame game just doesn't wash I'm afraid.
