I agree about us accumulating a lot of dead wood.
There should be a huge incentive for any contracted players, as most would be unlikely to gain a SL contract elsewhere.'"
It doesn’t sound great, but honestly ask yourself I can’t see us winning a game never mind actually staying up.

| Quote: PopTart "Honestly I always start agreeing with your post then you manage to throw a Carter dig in.
Relegation bad - I agree
Used to have a good squad - agree
Expenditure reduced - yes I agree
Replaced some with less capable players - yes but I'm pretty sure they didn't do it on purpose
Carter at fault - well I can't imagine he's signing players on his own. He sets the budget not the target list.'"
He didn’t need to take part in the playing part of the business, something he is completely unqualified for.

He still has to set the budget and agree contracts.
I don't know how it works but can you say he signed someone either Poching or Mash didn't want?

Don't know what wilzay's done, but I've followed Trinity for 67 years both home, and for most of that time away as well, and I agree with him entirely. does that not count to anything? I've probably put as much into the club as MC has done over the years. You're a relative "New boy"

| It does count for something.....but really it just makes you (and me) really loyal customers.
The club needs you and should think about how to make you happy and keep you loyal, but it doesn't give you any decision making rights.
I've shopped at Asda for years but they never do what I ask them either.

He probably allowed some to leave that WP wanted to keep but maybe our new coach didn’t or was persuaded we didn’t need. I presume he was in charge of negotiations for contract renewal which I guess he considered a success for an accountant.

No, but it doesn't stop you telling the manager of Asda that their butter is crap if that is what you think.

Indeed.
He might throw you out though if you don't do it in a polite way.

Which produces bad publicity and a loss of business something our current incumbent and club have experienced.

Depends whether it was the right thing to do.
I don't suppose we've had anyone stop coming because the smoke bomb guy was banned.

A good point well made PT - we can all agree that value for money has been really poor over the last few years, this year especially.
What's really disappointing is the lack of new fans and the attempt in attracting them.

Totally agree with this, our Marketing is nonexistent and our media/social media content is dull and boring.

In a nutshell: not winning enough games. Nothing else can really compete with that single attraction.
