Why isn’t it Barrow the snake?

It’s been said that he was pressured into the job. The guys been round the block and is certainly a grown up. No excuse.

The board acted in good faith with initially it seems agreeing to appoint Lawrence but again he let them and us down.

So Rickets, Lawrence and Barrow have all basically screwed our club.

He put the club in a difficult position which frankly they handled well with a seamless transition in tricky business and personal situation.

that's a relief, hopefully everyone can move on now and focus on promotion, at least until the end of the season

When Spencer said do you all remember the Newport and Salford game but conveniently then forgets to mention the next 5 shambolic displays I’d had enough of his bull shit .He then went on to say on the day of trying to sort out the managerial position he was far to busy to do it yet completely rebuffed the guys idea of a paid ceo because it wd cost money and we’re fine cos he does a gd job for free.Were stuck with this circus now and all this back slapping is here to stay

My favourite thread this year, really is hilarious and what will top it off hopefully the Quorn Boy fella will come on to lift morale.

Why don’t you table a motion for a paid Chief Exec and apportion at least 100k from the playing budget to pay him.

I suggest if we had 2 less players, we’d be in the shit and not 4 points from the top.

Whilst a paid Chief Exec would pay for himself, in time, that could take a couple of years. Therefore, if you want to remove at least 100k from the playing budget, put the resolution to members to vote on.

Package was agreed.

Big Den's contract was running out and he hadn't spoken to the people at tnt. He was probably thinking that his time managing his country was coming to an end, and what better place than the club that gave him his big break in football. Big Den was then told he could not speak to us, he was told that his country wanted him to stay on and take them to the world cup. After all this he decided to stay put. You cant blame him really can you. He owes this club nothing and him not signing this time does not make him a snake!

What a stupid thing to say.

Think he had to go to parents evening. Willl our CEO only be employed if he or she does not have kids?

I am not as it happens completely against the idea but I think it could be a real tricky one. Our last sort of paid ceo went to Burnley if you recall. Nice chap invited a few of us up to talk through how they worked, how they did hospitality etc

Barrow hasn’t covered himself in glory for sure. Perhaps there are personal things at play we are not privy to, so I don’t want to be too harsh.

To me it sounds like the club have dealt with this as well as they could from a difficult position. Have mistakes been made? Undoubtedly, with the benefit of hindsight, but we are being run by people, not robots.
