    You mean Sutton?

     

    At RB - definitely

     

    At RWB - sorry but I prefer Fage to Sutton, but Sutton is much more likely to develop and I think Fage may have found his level. The fact that level is 2 levels below the level he was signed for says a lot more about the old owner and his sporting director brother.

    I think he means the non existant right back.

     

    I.e play with 10 rather than play fage🤣. Probably accurate

    I hope so. How the Chairman squirmed out of that without paying the tax bill is, well ... 

     

    A 42 day adjournment is what he wanted, and he got it. The fiasco descends to new depths.

     

    I still get to wear my colours, for the moment at least.

     

    However, on the pitch, there is still six points up for grabs between Southend and Oldham, so bring it on :)

     

     

    Is there tho? At this moment in time i dont see how southend start the season

     

    No proof you can fulfill it in its entirity, no squad to field. 

     

    I hope im wrong but i dont see how the NL let you continue

    They will earn yet another reprieve. Hopefully they will face a heavy points deduction for dragging this debacle on for so long...

    Tbf that only punishes the fans. Even if he goes today, the club is in a mess and thats punishment enough. 

     

    From being a year ahead of us this time last year, their dquad build is probably now a year behind us and then some. 

     

    Dont know the legalities of it but the league really needs to enforce some sort of power of attorney mechanism where they can force an owner to sell before it gets to this stage

  4. Any success york achieve this year is built on quicksand. Buying players for fun to build a development squad, but the new owners, the uggla family have history with yeovil and they come with a stark warning from yeovil fans. 

     

    Rumours of uggla bringing in his own players and getting too involved with the team, plus spending beyond their income streams, id be a little nervous if i was a york fan

  5. You dont give too much thought to people in and around the club like this who dont often do the media stuff, instead, sticking in the back ground doing the nitty gritty,  but things like his appearance on the podcast make you realise just how invaluable these people really are to the club

  6. I remember this up roar when we appointed lee Johnson. - he didn't turn out so bad.

    I also remember this uproar when we appointed Darren Kelly. - he was a shocker. 

    I also remember this uproar when we appointed Steve Robinson- he was kack.

     

    My point being, yes, it looks like a shite appointment, but things don't always go the way you think they will. They do most of the time, but not always. This could just as easily be a master stroke. It may also see us in the relegation mire for much of the season, but we won't know that until we have kicked a ball.

     

    Give the guy a chance, get behind him, and call for his head when we get rolled 3-0 on a Tuesday night at morcombe

  7. This topic has.been largely ignored with no response, but what a good read that was. It really is the true ideal of a Phoenix club, and a model latics should be looking at should the need ever arise.

    I don't think we are quite there yet, I'm still one of the few willing to wait and see how all this pans out, but the first thing I'd be doing is getting a flight over to Salamanca and seeing how it's done.

  8. It's unlikely, but if we have any chance of the play offs i reckon we need 5 wins from 7 minimum. Each game is a cup final but if we did get them there is no question we would be the form team going into them.

     

    Today is pivotal and although I'm more confident with wild in charge 5 from 7 (would be 7 from 9 really) is too much too ask.

     

    One game at a time, 5 from 7 is easier than 7 from 9, just as 4 from 6 is easier still. While we keep winning it's still possible but I expect nothing. 

     

    Lose or draw today and it's over
