Why oh why are we the only club?
Morrell did well but on the face of it all, he was a gamble with not much experience which ultimately showed. Wilkins another gamble coming from a club like Nuneaton to ours, huge difference & ultimately failed but wasn’t so bad. Gary mills - we all know the gamble with him well before he arrived here, turned out to be the most disliked manager we have had. Failed. Rickets - probably the only success, but he was also a huge gamble with no experience. Bryan Hughes & Graham barrow absolute huge gambles of the lot, absolute nonsense appointments and failed miserably. Keates - he’s been a gamble both times, decent first time with awful football got away with 1-0’s. This time it’s speaks for itself. So my question is why? Why have the board been allowed for so long, to mess us about with these idiotic appointments. We can throw hate as much as we like at the managers, but half of us would never say no or resign in Keates case. The real questions & “hatred” should go towards the board & the board only. The spineless, lying, useless b*****ds. None of them at all should be allowed to be part of the current regime. They’ve held us back for way to long. Every other club who’s come down has pretty much gone back up within a few years, it shows our failings solely on the board for picking and choosing their mates. |

Re: Why oh why are we the only club?
On paper Gary Mills was the type of high profile manager you're referring to. He'd been massively successful at York, was doing well at Gateshead and we even bought him out of his contract. I remember Trabmere interviewing him at the last minute and everyone starting to panic thinking they might poach him ahead of us.
Truth is there's no formula that guarantees success. We've just made some shocking recruitment decisions that were never ever going to work. Since ricketts left it has actually been a case study in how not to recruit managers. Barrow, Hughes and bringing Keates back are laughably bad decisions. |

Re: Why oh why are we the only club?
Wilkins failed because he was undermined by so called senior professionals in the club who thought they knew better. Let’s think who those senior professionals were? One posts on here, one finds himself in the managers hot seat. Hmm

Re: Why oh why are we the only club?
I disagree on two counts. Gary Mills wasn’t a gamble and was a hit of a coup. However he failed on the end but I wouldn’t say he was out most hated manager?????? Some of the football was exciting under him and there were always goals. I’d say Keates is now the most hated as he and Spencer have divided the fans so much.

Re: Why oh why are we the only club?
The ones that choose haven't a clue basically . Football knowledge is zero , it's quite easy really , you appoint a man who has that necessary knowledge , but there's not even the inkling of doing this because they think they know best .
