Thanks for posting RfE, thought Cakeman put the London situation very well.

I agree- hopefully a few of the powers that be were listening.

Sadly, I suspect the powers that be listen, but do not hear.

Cake always speaks well and with openness. He is a great servant to the club and able to motivate the players and prepare them physically. I don't see him as a coach though and is dependent on working with a knowledgable assistant IMO. Interesting he cites Jamie Langley as the one he can call on for support. Perhaps at one point Cake could be CEO as he seems intelligent with great passion for the club and I imagine he has ideas about how the club could grow.

Having got a win the club seem to have gone on a media offensive which is good but should give an explanation as to why they voted for the IMG proposals and be specific about why the ranking is so different to what they would have expected. Catchment is primarily highlighted but even the max score there would only give us an extra half point. Surely the debate should have been had in advance of the vote given the grading system was published. I had calculated our score as 8.2 based on published info so the draft grading of 8.07 was absolutely no surprise. Did Hughes just not think it through ?

Clearly not!

You are right the time to put his case was before because we were always going to be up against it. In the end, as we all know, he said nothing until months later when all the hullabaloo had pretty much died down.

I'm warming to your idea of Cake running the club, with Lobster just being the bookkeeper.
