What is the good Doctor up to these days?

Although attendances increased under Glover, weren't they all free-loaders who walked in through Cats Bar without paying and as soon as they stopped that, attendances went down again ??

Anyway, without wishing to de-rail the thread, I would also like to express my profound thanks to MC for your outstanding efforts over the past 10 years in keeping our club alive and making it a more appealing proposition than the basket case that we were before your tenure at the helm. Regardless of what the future holds for us, I will be forever grateful to you for your blood, sweat and tears and wish you well in your retirement

Would be nice if we could keep him on on a part time retainer basis to keep his knowledgeable eye on " The books", perhaps he has passed some of his fiscal know how on to JM.

Isn't JM an accountant too ??

Yes

How long until he is announced at being on the board for Wakefield AFC?

Wonder if the new owner of Wakefield AFC, has considered investing in us, as they are now moving in.

By all accounts, he, and the company he owns, look to have a quid or two.

The ground is the issue really, as far as I can tell. New stadium that generates income that buys players who attract the crowds. I think what we are getting is three years too late, and we all know the blame doesn't lie with the club as it is at the moment. I think the stadium a few years ago would have attracted the bigger support he was after. It wasn't going to happen with the stadium as it is.

As soon as I saw the IMG criteria, I knew we were done. He must have done too.

The problem is that we are just no longer competitive. I don't expect us to win games anymore, and no one is going to shell out £25 to watch a poor team in a poor stadium.

Chicken and egg, self-fulfilling prophecy, whatever, but he's done a sterling job. The future is grim though.

Idiotic comment as usual.

Underhanded maybe, but idiotic it is not. Football is after all MC's first love is it not?

If MC wants to go do something else, and that something else is be involved in an exciting new footballing venture, who are we to undermine that dream?

I don't think that MC being involved in Wakefield AFC would ultimately be a bad thing actually, read of that what you will.

I'd normally agree but I don't really see anything wrong if Carter wanted to do this.
Clearly Egg doesn't know either way but if that's what he wanted to do then why not.
