Barry Horne: "There were too many differences, it was becoming too fractious"

[FieldtownRed]

Wilkin the other day, Horne today. When are Little's and Saunders' interviews being published?

On Keates there is nothing to 'understand', he did the dirty on us as he did at other clubs only for us to bring him back.

I don’t think it’s for Horne to stamp his feet

It’s more for the other board members to appreciate and respect the wealth of knowledge and experience that Horne has

Agreed about Keates though, the snakes attitude was appalling towards his actions from the day he came back

Yes you take someones opinion as they know the subject better , if no improvements come with it you look else where for that person until you find them . Unfortunately the worst decisions were made and that's why things are as they are . It goes on and on .

Part of the board went rogue and the adults left.The rogue board became more undemocratic and treated the club as their own personal play thing

The fanatics are still sticking to their every word. The same people content to be relegated rather than change the board or get any sort of outside investment.In their words "we still have a club".Unfortunately in the process they have squandered the game changing Danny Ward sell-on and appointed 3 ridiculous managers in a row.

It's the fact they gave Gary Mills more money which won't have helped the clubs financial problems at the time.

Also, on Keates he talks about what if on a striker, I think many do the same as the club was sat in the play offs. Granted it's not solely his decision, but we've got nothing to 'understand' and Keates attitude when Wilkin was in charge should've been a warning. No need for back slapping on a good decision made if you forget about the all the other stuff.

It was simple to tell him 'no' and take the chance he got on with it and then allow him to move.

Wilkin's brother in law said different on the players front if I recall correctly.

When we lost in the play-off final I always thought that had Danny Wright have been playing we would have won. We had the players but one of our main men got injured in a game that meant nothing. The conspiracy theory was that Wright did not want to play in the final due to a minor injury. The catastrophic decision to play him in a meaningless game cost us IMHO.

The fact that they didn’t even ask Horne why he was leaving speaks volumes too

No interest in finding out potential problems or if they could do anything differently

There was clearly tension and animosity there

Exactly, not even an "exit interview" for one of the most iconic Welsh footballers of the past 30+ years?

That's either a result of sheer ignorance or deep division
