To summarise
you don't want a manager in Delia's image (Grant), but you absolutely hated the appointment of someone nasty (Roeder).
Furthermore, you think that any successful appointment by the board was pure luck, while you categorise their failings as pure incompetence. Which is great, but the appt of Grant (arguably their biggest error) was made having consulted a panel of football experts!
You also believe that taking on the securitisation was wrong, even though it has enabled City to increase matchday revenue, cover the losses caused by ITV Digital and proved the catalyst for signings like Crouch & Huckerby.
You reflect the frustration experienced by many of us but you offer no solutions, merely criticisms made with the benefit of hindsight.
