We didn't plan to get Hilly when he was given the job first time around, lets at least give the board time to see who applies.
On a separate note, Hilly and Flicker don't seem as close as the once were, I expected a couple of ' When I spoke to Hilly' from Flickers, although he was very complimentary. | |

Did he cut and paste the comment? | |

While I don't blame them for going to Barnsley when they did, Flitcroft should remember that when he says there's no loyalty in football... | |

It sounded like there are irons in the fire to me, I imagine the picture will be clearer in a few days | |

It seems more and more fans are def warming to the new CEO, he'd give Basil Fawlty a good run for his money with his customer service skills. | | | |

Yes he's bang on about no loyalty,they both showed that when a flash of a bigger club came along,silly boy | | | |

I’m going to go out on a limb here and say if we appoint somebody before Saturday, and BBM/Tony Ellis take charge for the game and win, then the board would have no choice but to DO NOTHING BECAUSE THEY HAVE ALREADY APPOINTED A MANAGER!
Jesus wept. Talk about posting for postings sake. | | | |

So basically, Radio Manchester have sought opinions from people who are hugely experienced in the game, know Dale inside out, and the general consensus is we shouldn’t have sacked Hill now.
If only the board had considered speaking to somebody who had an idea of what they were talking about. What a fcuking circus. | | | |

He's going to bury.
Oh, sorry. That's Owen Taxman | |

Flitcroft is Hill’s mate, he’s going to speak well of him .Gary Jones until recently had no contact with the club for years. Why would the board seek their opinion? They have decided Hill has run out of ideas I guess | |
| |
| Radio Manchester tonight. on 22:20 - Mar 4 with 2453 views | sweetcorn |
Because they are business men who don’t know the footballing side of a football club. Seeking guidance from people who have an insight wouldn’t be a bad idea in my book.
Ed Woodward at united has recieved heavy criticism for his lack of footballing knowledge at united and is largely blamed by their fans for finding themselves where they did at the start of this season. This despite the fact he has taken them to new heights in the commercial and corporate world. I’d say we’re in a similar situation with our board and their lack of any idea [Post edited 4 Mar 2019 22:23]

I didn’t expect you to understand. The point I was making is a fcuking radio station appear to have performed more ‘due diligence’ (for lack of a better description) on the position of terminating Hill and Beech’s contract than our board of directors.
They have certainly made a statement. I’ll give them that. | | | |

The businessmen on our board are the hugely achieving (in RAFC terms at the very least )Graham Rawlinson and Andrew Kelly. The others all appear to be employees, except Bottomley, whose last employer has ceased trading according to Companies House. He is now employed again. Somehow. | |

His best mate and former assistant and his ex-captain. Both of whom haven't had to watch us for the past two seasons. | | | |

That was the point I was trying to make in that the club is probably in safe hands from a business point of view, but are they really best placed to be making footballing decisions.. | |

I have my concerns about certain appointments but none with GR and AK.
In fact, having read the recent Trust meeting minutes,...watch this space | |

Has any one considered the statement regarding the fans that it could be that some of them were not behind KH and his strange team selections etc. | | | |
| Radio Manchester tonight. on 00:36 - Mar 5 with 2113 views | James1980 |
Regarding 'slagging off' fans, I don't believe for one second that it was directed at all fans but at a small number. The problem was that wasn't made abundantly clear when Hill made such remarks. The board didn't instruct him to come out after making them. To say something along the lines of, 'I understand fans frustrations, sorry for reacting the way I did etc etc'. I believe Hill felt the team were almost like his children and like many parents felt if any 'telling off' was to be done that he should do it/didn't like his 'children' being criticised.
DB's comments about fans were very foolish though and totally unnecessary.
I personally think the pay per game tickets for these last six home matches should have the prices cut. To hopefully encourage more fans into the stadium. | |

They just got two people who they knew would express surprise at the decision, not much diligence there, due or otherwise. With respect, I’m unsure how you are aware of the board’s thinking on this matter.
Not sure you can claim ‘a general consensus ‘ from two comments either [Post edited 5 Mar 2019 6:34]

Yes, but in such circumstances it's better to be crystal clear what you mean | |

Radio Manchester love Hill, always going to be biased | |

I’m as misty eyed about Hill as the next supporter and can’t even stand to read the good times thread for that reason.
However, let’s look at this analytically. Us fans, some ITKs and the board themselves have witnessed the following:
Poor results, performances, player fall outs, wasted budget, unpopular training sessions, set play embarrassment and more.
It couldn’t go on. The Wimbledon game sealed it for me, Plymouth poured salt on it and by Luton, I was numb.
Hill was in danger of irreparably damaging his legacy.
What happens next may not work either, but the board couldn’t let this scenario continue.
How they went about it is open to question, though. A public backing followed by a public flogging suggests right hand and left aren’t coordinated. | |
