Dear Mick the hack. Delia and MWJ are so expert at running a football club....

that we found ourselves on the verge of Admin only a few short years ago when the admitted they "DID NOT" know how to run a football club and faced protests and meetings at St Andrews Hall.
To be fair ,wisely they brought in some quality people (McNally and Bowkett)
Shockingly this lead to an upturn in our fortunes.
Now we have lost that quality it seems to have coincided with a large downturn in fortunes.
This smells just like the Worthy/Grant era post relegation where we pissed away the para payments.

Do we learn anything from History?

Personally I'm not one of those calling for Delia/MWJ to go.
Its clear we need to add more robust quality on the board that has been lost.

I also don't think Robin Sainty was grandstanding.
The irony is he did exactly what Bowkett did.
He is questioning the direction of the club.
He is questioning the quality of leadership and its decision making.

On a personal level I feel we should have a more hands on full time chairman even if we have to pay them a decent salary.
Ed Balls seems very distracted. Seems in a bit of a mid life crisis. Every interview he does, mentions every job he wants to do but being Chairman of Norwich.

I think the board have a lot to answer for on our currents state.
The biggest one is clearly our inability to move on players who are surplus to requirements.
