Stevie_J Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Not my area of expertise tbh. Is it not to do with annual filing of accounts? I'd be extremely worried if it remains unpaid after it looked highly likely the ST offer/gamble was a get rich quick scheme to cover something needing paying. The ST money may have been used to make payments against the loan but it wouldn't make sense for the club not to remove the charge at Companies House, if it had been paid off in full.

HarryBosch Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 To have it leak before anything has been confirmed, though? You talk about it as if it's a state secret & overseas agents lives are at risk As long as SR knows first I'd rather the club prioritise getting the next man ahead of telling the world officially. This "lack of comm-yoo-ni-kay-shun" bollocks is starting to look a bit mental. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

longtimeblue Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 I want some humble pie publicly eaten by Sheridan too. You should always leave nicely. He didn't. In fact he practically gloated about being well rid of us. So show some humility, get your head down and start repaying our past loyalty to you Sheridan. Would his reappointment seriously look to be the appointment of a financial mercenary who reneged on false promises or the reappointment of a man who'd gone with blessings on the basis we'd been paid for him. Whatever your view on Corney, he doesn't strike me as the kind of bloke who'd take being mugged off well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stagger Lee Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Wish him and his young family all the best. Well said Yarddog. No one has had a bad word to say about him and has been graceful under pressure. I wish him well and hope he gets another chance at management in easier circumstances.

I wish him well and hope he gets another chance at management in easier circumstances. I said he looked a broken man during the after match Mansfield interview. It was sad to see. Didn't get the results or goals we wanted, but he did say some players let him down. Those players should go too or they will do the same to the next manager. I should think he will return to the NI set up where there would less focus on his role. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should think he will return to the NI set up where there would less focus on his role. Agree about the Mansfield interview. I hold no grudge against him. He failed at one of the more difficult jobs around. I was impressed with the way he got the team organised in a very short space of time in the summer, however it became increasingly clear during September and October that he didn't have a plan about how to progress us on any further than that. It didn't help him that the majority of the squad wasn't fit for purpose, but I can't think of a single player who has improved under his reign. Being bottom of the league hasn't helped, but think that could've been forgiven if it wasn't for the lack of goals and the number of scoreless games. In the end he had to go. Not that all our problems are solved of course. Under the current regime fighting for survival in this league seems to be the height of our ambitions. That can't go on. New owners would be preferable but if Corney and co. stay in place then they need to state a clear medium term plan of action. I can take the odd relegation scrap if it looks like there's a positive strategy in place (i.e. blooding youngsters or selling players on for big profits) but at present there clearly isn't one and there isn't a light at the end of the tunnel. Survival alone isn't enough this time around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Survival alone isn't enough this time around. Pretty much my view too. Good case for retaining him given the hand he was dealt and the embargo stopping him recruiting, but just as big, if not bigger for letting him go as performances and goals were a massive issue.
