Yes we would you f**king idiots.
Looks like Thorn had something do do with this statement so he should do the right thing and resign.

My best guess is that you're referring to the Mirror article and in particular:

"The fears seem genuine, shared among senior circles within the Championship, with Delieu’s appearance on the bench a few feet from Thorn the symbol of a club that has lost its sense of bearings.
Pressed in the aftermath of the defeat, former Wimbledon, Newcastle and Crystal Palace defender Thorn did not try to hide his feelings.
“Ken wanted to come onto the bench. He’s the head of football operations, so he was down there,” he said. “He’s head of football. He can do whatever he wants.”
Delieu’s qualifications for such a role are unclear, although he was chairman of Southampton during their negotiations with SISU four years ago, before the hedge-fund bought the ailing club from another former Labour MP, Geoffrey Robinson.
Attempts to contact Delieu, who lives in Portugal, received no response.
A club spokesman said: “Ken and the manager had spoken about it in advance and were generally surprised by the reaction it has had. If the team had won then nobody would be talking about this.”

If my assumption is correct, I really can't understand your comments about Thorn.
