Not all of the fans disliked Fergus. He had a difficult balancing act in rebuilding a dilapidated stadium while attempting to supply funds to build a Championship winning team.

This Board have no excuses: massive cash reserves, little or no infrastructure to rebuild or enhance (we can only assume the Barrowfield development is finished because the media department can't seem to find their way there to give us an update).

Yet still there is no forward planning. How about this for a novel idea: source a replacement and recruit them BEFORE you sell the best players we have, and who hired all the guys in the recruitment department if the Board don't trust them. It would seem odd that the Football department would be allowed free reign to hire staff, and drain wages, if the their expertise is ignored.

The Board they need to understand that they are there to facilitate, within reason, the needs of the manager an Football department.

Every single department rises or falls based upon what happens on the park. If there is a secret plan on what they plan to do with the cash reserves fine, but the time is fast approaching where they've backed themselves into a corner that they will need to explain it.
