The Caisley/Noble partnership took the club to the edge of being bankrupt before they both ducked out, and that was far too high a price to pay for all our success, nice as it was to have it.
Noble hasn't coached at any club in the position that ours is currently in. He's been used to having money to spend on the team and (presumably, since I don't remember his protests) when the money started to dry up he was happy to trade the future for today by saving money on youth development in order to help pay for it. Not what I'd call forward looking.
I'm as disappointed as anyone that we couldn't continue buying success, but the money tree stopped producing fruit and I'm certainly not going to start denigrating the people who, in difficult circumstances, are trying to take the club forward. I think someone else said we should be carefull what you wish for, because we might get our wish, well I agree.
