Just because you can, doesn't mean you should.:disney/00033.gif



Quote: Slugger McBatt "In what way has it been managed badly? Specifics.

I don't mean, "we've been relegated" or "had a rubbish squad", but what have they done that is bad? Not having enough money to compete with others is not bad management. It is just a financial reality, and has always been our problem. Bad management would be having enough money but still getting in debt. I'm curious about what they have done specifically that is bad, or would constitute bad management.'"

I didn't say bad management, I said poor management. The financial reality you state is a reason is a product of that poor management where the board have failed to secure enough investment in the club to maintain a squad able to compete at the top tier. Like it or not, the board are 100% responsible for this, it isn't an excuse for the board to shrug their shoulders and cry poverty when they are the ones holding the purse strings and are the ones responsible for securing the investment needed. They either failed to invest enough themselves, or they failed over successive seasons to attract investment from an external source - but because they were unable to do either in time, their poor management has led to the club being relegated and as a direct consequence people's livelihoods placed at risk

You post some complete and utter guff on these forums and show a complete lack of understanding of how a business works.
Can you point me in the direction of all the other SL clubs that have managed to increase investment in the last 3 years, you know the 3 years that had Covid followed by a global financial crisis? And when I say investment I don’t mean a sugar daddy throwing in an extra £1m icon_thumb.gif

Clubs don't have sugar daddies (calling them that is just your pathetic way to dismiss their investment), they have people who invest in them, and through poor management we have people who will neither invest the needed amount or have the skills and ability to secure investment from outside parties.

Another topic nicely highjacked.

Fuck off and be miserable on your own.

This is not the thread to do this.
I'll lock it and clean out the extra stuff when I get chance.
