Fans Forum

From these comments it sounds like we should be thankful to Jimmy and Vince that we still have a Championship club given the number of times we've come close to administration.

However any hopes of signing players of the quality of Tommy Smith look to be gone, as does the prospect of stadium redevelopment, especially with the news that work in the south west corner has stopped. We now seem to be trying to get Saracens to fund the East Stand.

You wonder what the hell went on in the season where we came back down from the Prem. How could Simpson let Aidy throw money at trying to get back up when he'd previously had to save the club from Vialli doing exactly the same thing?

As a fan I don't want stupid gambles on promotion which leaves the very existance of the club at stake. These have never worked anyway. Our success has always come with groups of affordable players who have fought for the team rather than the pay packet. Malky seems to be moulding the next generation to do just that. If only we could offload some of the high earning non-achievers.
