One discussion made me think about this hypothetical scenario.
If sisu hand given fisher the reign at the start where would we be? I think we'd own the Ricoh and would have experienced premiership football during his tenure.
Difference is Ranson left when he realised what he had got himself into. Walked away probably with less than he walked in with. Poor judgement especially from someone like him.
Fisher came on board knowing fully what he was getting involved in. Can't walk away unless something drastically changes due to pressure from others.
Ranson walked away when he couldn't personally trouser anymore money out of the club.
If the club had selected robins or Pressley instead of Coleman, boothroyd or thorn would we have done better at the outset? Would waggot have sanctioned the ludricous Eastwood signing? Think on.
No way. However the OP was not about Waggott was it? He's someone that I personally have a lot of time for. Can't really fault the guy for what he's done here or at Charlton. Yes Ranson made mistakes but he did what he could. Bought in some crap but I'd say the good signings outweigh the bad ones. He left for the right reasons and wasn't the only one that decided enough was enough.
Ranson walked away when he couldn't personally trouser anymore money out of the club.
Fisher employed waggott. Ranson employed Coleman, Keane and thorn. So you agree fisher bringing waggott in was good?

An outrageous claim to say we would have experienced premiership football, I do think however Fisher and Waggot would have done a better job than Ranson and co.
Fisher and Waggot weren't in control until Christmas of the year we were relegated so I don't hold them majorly responsible for the relegationRanson didn't get us relegated, and many of the players here under his tenure have since played in the Premier League.

Really? How many out of the percentage signed are in the premier league? Remember fox and dann were dowie signingsMore pertinently how many of his managers have been a success including our beloved thorn? Answer; none.
The more pertinent issue is ground ownership. Ranson had a lazy ill conceived thought process towards this when the owners were popular. If fisher had his ruthless zeal towards stadium ownership in 2007 I think fans reaction would have been very different.

Don't think it would make much of a difference. No disrespect to either man, my opinion is both are just puppets with people behind the scenes pulling the strings.
The only difference may have been choice of manager and their way if balancing the books with the obvious bit if 'luck'
I think Ranson would have been much more successful in securing Ricoh ownership.
Fisher is an arrogant turd who seems to have gone out of his way to antagonise the council from day one.
I remember when Ranson was there a local councillor telling me how good the relationship between football club and council was at that time.
So, since Fisher has been in charge we've been relegated from the Championship and performed very average in a league with far less quality. Makes sense.
That's not what I said though is it? I said if in 2007 he took over had waggott at his side we would have recruited a better manager, identified better players and made a real attempt to wrestle control of the Ricoh in 2007.
