Anyone agitating for a change in CEO, advocating it or even mentioning it in passing at this stage of the game has lost the plot. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair he's had little or no service in most matches. What a natural goal scorer needs is the ball being played to him early to take advantage of his skills. We haven't shown the ability as yet to provide him with that service as the only fit midfielders are defensively orientated. He showed at Chesterfield and Gateshead that he's on his toes following up on deflections and goalkeeper's errors but our attackers don't shoot enough to offer these sort of chances. If we played the ball in earlier and shot a bit more often his goals would follow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the kind of crazy talk that could seriously harm the brilliant long term strategic master plan that DU is implementing Last season we finished a magnificent 12th and David has steered us to within 3 points of that incredible achievement…yes folks, just 1 win separates us from 2 consecutive top half finishes It could come this weekend or it could come in April (at BP in front of 4k) but I truly believe David will deliver this miracle (although FR may have to back him with half a dozen new players, especially strikers) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shrek Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 The original post about paying him off etc. The likelihood is, if we can't agree a cut price deal, is he goes on garden leave. Bayern have their last manager on garden leave, Nagglewhateverhisname. Germany may take him, and if goes the contract is broken. If Ebrell or anyone walk when Unsworth goes they won't be paid off.

Hopefully it makes surplus money after the loan repayments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it's true we don't have a bottomless pot of money that we can piss away on bad business decisions, we may even feel the pinch when crowds go down a couple of thousand less than expected.

100milesaway Posted September 13, 2023 Share Posted September 13, 2023 Put all other aspects of this aside for a moment. The 1000 fans who have recently stopped attending, (and lots more who will soon join them,) are doing so because the football is bloody awful, There has been no difference in this seasons performances than last. So attendances will continue to slide. Unsworth needs to change his attitude, and his teams style of play. And win some games in style. Failing to do so, will soon be following by 12 month's of off pitch improvements, and positivity being thrown away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure they will. They can't have expected 7000 a week. We've sold that many STs that the crowds shouldn't be a massive financial issue unless we have been very silly. Crowd numbers won't affect the managers job imo, but behaviour and atmosphere may well...... Average attendance last season was 6600 in a division where we had Wrexham and Notts County. They can't have budgeted for it to be even the same never mind higher than that surely. The BBC have the Dorking game at 6291.
