As I said in my previous post on this thread, MC shouldn`t be excluded from criticism, I think he got the coaching decision wrong and I think he has got others wrong, I also think clinging on to CC for so long damaged us, also paying him is taking money from our budget. But for balance:

1.When people talk investment, MC and his team seem to do a relatively good job on sponsorships, which is investment in the club and lets be honest, we aren`t the most lucrative club to sponsor.
2. Our support has been poor (I realise that is chicken and egg with the on field performances) but as much as we can point the finger at lack of marketing coming out of the club, lack of incentive, the fans are there there just not coming to games, it`s a difficult period financially for a lot of folk so no doubt that plays a part.
3. MC and JM have obviously put a massive amount of work into the stadium plans which looks highly likely to be successfully implemented, something that at times looked very doubtful.
4. Above everything, MC has always been honest with fans regarding our budget and restraints at the club.

Exactly my thoughts too. There are a lot of posts on here that are speculative at best and provide no evidence at all of what is or isn't.
Do those posters think for one minute that the issues they raise are not apparent to the MC and JM et al?
Leave it to those who KNOW what they are doing instead of dragging up dirt that probably isn't there.

Well I think we will know pretty quickly let’s just wait and see who is correct because no east stand would be obvious.

JM, reiterated yesterday at the Friday lunch that the demolition will start July 4th. I’ve no reason to doubt him, and I’m confident work wouldn’t start if the funding isn’t already in place. I know the winter weather will dictate the pace of the building work, but if all goes to plan, JM, explained that it’s possible early next season, the North End of the new stand has enough construction to have seats fitted for members to use. While work continues to the South end. At that stage it will be an empty shell.

Ok Dunkirk, lets hope he is correct ,thanks for the input.

Both MC and JM answered any questions put to them. They often answered in depth.
