I think the board are quite comfortable sitting on their hands...

There are 25,000 people in the ground week after week, with a large number of them being disillusioned with what is happening on the pitch.

That is a fact.

I wish that the board would repay some of that loyalty that we are showing, by doing something now before the damage is irreparable. I know the board has always been like it is, but someone's got to realise that we don't have this "infinite patience" that Delia likes to think.

        In which case, why not? (NCFC) - mr carra, Apr 7, 11:22:43
        
        We had a budget of ?4.5m on promotion. (NCFC) - Arganth, Apr 7, 11:28:13
        
        Promotion is worth about ?35m (NCFC) - mr carra, Apr 7, 11:31:11
        
        That includes bollocks like... (NCFC) - Arganth, Apr 7, 11:43:28

        Oh for gods sake. (NCFC) - Arganth, Apr 7, 11:31:04
        
        you dont lose it to the taxman..... how many times has this been discussed (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Apr 7, 11:40:48
        
        there are special laws you lose nothing (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Apr 7, 11:41:41
        
        that tax argument is a f*cking urban myth (NCFC) - mr carra, Apr 7, 11:39:35
        
        we HAD a huge chunk of money (NCFC) - mr carra, Apr 7, 11:25:12
        
        See above. (n/m) (NCFC) - Arganth, Apr 7, 11:28:54
        
        Worthys had the money, he has spent 10m getting us to where we were when he started (n/m) (NCFC) - DiscoDaleGordon, Apr 7, 11:22:55
        
        Or better judgement? (n/m) (NCFC) - Ottosson Foxtrot, Apr 7, 11:21:38
        
        Possibly. But if he had 100% third eye-style judgement... (NCFC) - Arganth, Apr 7, 11:34:18
        
        rather than defensive midfield plodders (n/m) (NCFC) - phrankin, Apr 7, 11:39:27
        
        Can't disagree with anything that you say there. (n/m) (NCFC) - Dog, Apr 7, 11:03:43
        
        yeah its fucked Palace right up (n/m) (NCFC) - DiscoDaleGordon, Apr 7, 10:58:38
        
        But southampton look at them!! (NCFC) - phrankin, Apr 7, 11:03:15
    - But that's not his opinion, to be fair... (NCFC) - Orlando, Apr 7, 10:43:11
      - surely even if he goes in the summer.. (NCFC) - mr carra, Apr 7, 10:49:20
      - Well he was of the opinion (below) that Hughes will come good. (NCFC) - Dog, Apr 7, 10:47:52
        
        This board are well known for their smoke and mirrors. (NCFC) - Arganth, Apr 7, 10:54:56
        
        But what, precisely, do we gain from not telling the fans that Worthy will be going? (NCFC) - Dog, Apr 7, 10:58:50
        
        Cos we're not that sort of club. (NCFC) - Arganth, Apr 7, 11:00:42
        
        that's why we never really progress. Attitude in the Prem was appalling (n/m) (NCFC) - Brandonio, Apr 7, 11:07:29
        
        I agree with you there. (NCFC) - Dog, Apr 7, 11:02:28
        
        But we've always been like that. (NCFC) - Arganth, Apr 7, 11:13:00
        
        I think the board are quite comfortable sitting on their hands... (NCFC) - Dog, Apr 7, 11:30:16

        But would you sack your best buddy? (n/m) (NCFC) - DiscoDaleGordon, Apr 7, 11:12:20
        
        but that is a different argument (NCFC) - mr carra, Apr 7, 11:19:22
        
        I think its a mix of both (NCFC) - DiscoDaleGordon, Apr 7, 11:25:56
        
        How do you know they're best buddies. (NCFC) - Arganth, Apr 7, 11:15:40
        
        I dont, but its pretty clear that Worthy is "well in" with the board (NCFC) - DiscoDaleGordon, Apr 7, 11:19:53
        
        agree with Mr C (n/m) (NCFC) - Brandonio, Apr 7, 11:08:36
