American investment is ruining this club 16:56 - Aug 25 with 4011 views | deanscfc | I know, nothing new here but it's just getting more ridiculous by the day. Bad decision after bad decision. Are they actually expecting to do ok in the championship by selling off any decent players and fielding a team of kids? We could genuinely end up in league 1 next season, when we should be going for promotion. Actually we should never have gone down to the championship in the first place..it was totally avoidable with some common sense in the transfer market. Hard to get excited by a team when the board has shown the total opposite to the ambition they could have shown. | | | | |

American investment is ruining this club on 17:14 - Aug 25 with 3871 views | deanscfc | Until they sold out, yes. When you run a football club as if its any other type of business then there'll be big problems. Trouble is, it doesn't seem like our board are even any good at business either. Imagine, not only not investing, but purposely weaking your main business asset. Thick as f*ck. | | | |
American investment is ruining this club on 17:15 - Aug 25 with 3850 views | deanscfc | My expectations are consistent with the deliberate weakening of our playing side. I.e. i expect us to keep falling and for the club to keep losing value. | | | |
American investment is ruining this club on 17:16 - Aug 25 with 3842 views | TheFranchise | They haven't made a good decision since signing Ki. The Americans are no worse than the management before them. They invested in a club, they're not investing in the the club. | | | |
American investment is ruining this club on 17:18 - Aug 25 with 3811 views | PozuelosSideys | I was referring to the bit you said about not getting excited by the team when you have issues with the owners. You wouldnt be posting this if we had sneaked a late draw | |

American investment is ruining this club on 17:22 - Aug 25 with 3762 views | PozuelosSideys | Hence.. my first post about expectation management.. This is a project. Potter said so himself. You cant build a side virtually from scratch and get promoted to the PL - at least its unlikely, even if you chuck gazillions at it The Yanks need to loosen the purse strings in this loan window tho i agree. Theyd be pretty thick not to see the value in it for them | |

American investment is ruining this club on 17:28 - Aug 25 with 3697 views | deanscfc | As I say, my expectations are pretty low right now. A project? In a project you surely have to realise that selling off all your main assets isn't going to bode very well. Not just talking about this season either but in general. If the board were project managers with someone above them they would have been sacked a long time ago for their total incompetence. | | | |

American investment is ruining this club on 17:31 - Aug 25 with 3676 views | dobjack2 | I don’t think that they have any idea of what this division needs just to keep out of trouble. Playing weekend and midweek takes its toll on players. Teams with weak squads can quickly drop down the table with a couple of injuries, suspensions and loss of form/fatigue to key players. | | | |
