Well they have taken us to the brink of League One

Unlike some people I can't see relegation as being anything other than a complete disaster for the club. I don't think we'll be in a position to go down, rebuild and come back stronger as there will be nothing to build on.

Our academy has been allowed to under perform for so long that I certainly don't expect to us to be able to build a competitive side from within and it seems from Neil's response to my questions that there is no real financial plan in place to deal with relegation.

I can't see how the current board are going to be able to turn the club around with no money and a seemingly 'nice little old Norwich' attitude as implied by Neil's supposed unwillingness to stick the knife in to Southampton today.

If Norwich had been in Sheffield United's position would our board have sued West Ham over the Teves affair? I couldn't see Delia fighting our corner.

It was Delia and Michael's choice to invest their money in the club and ultimately they were responsible for it being badly spent. As such I have no qualms in suggesting that they should be prepared to give over control of the club to someone like Cullum.

If they had accepted Cullum's proposal last season then we'd probably now be in a similar position to Ipswich. They might not be world beaters but at least they have hope for the new season and their own squad to get behind.

Why are you so in support of the board? It would be nice to hear a case for the defense that doesn't include any of the following:
- They're all we've got
- They own the club so we can't do anything
- We just need to support the team
- There is no one else to replace them

Where does you faith in their ability to improve on our current position come from?
