When Alan Bowkett attempted to offer advice to Munby and Doncaster it was:
"dismissed the majority of the time"
When Alan Bowkett's group prepared "a financial analysis of the situation and strategic options open to us" the response of Munby was that he "categorically refused to meet your own shareholders to discuss the proposals".
Bowkett's summary of Munby:
"The mistakes during your stewardship are legion and well documented in correspondence and internet postings throughout the county and beyond. Suffice to say we are now in the third tier of English football, our financial situation is dire, we do not have a team, the loyal supporters are distressed but we do have the best ground in the third division.
Under your chairmanship and Neil Doncaster's executive leadership the quality of our product has deteriorated every year since 2004, losses have continued to mount and debt piled up. "
Munby left us in the third division for the first time since 1960. Where would we have been had he listened to Mr Bowkett, who has led us in short order to the top half of the Premier League?
