Will tell me what Tim Fisher truly thinks of our club, its future and its customers(fans) young or old past, present or future. Looks like some of our youngsters (future) are on the move and even with them we need imo 3 new players. So without more to have a hope of crawling out of the bottom 4. I suspect and have for a while Fisher is comfortable with relegation just as he was 4 years ago when we fell out of the Championship trap door.
I watch this space with interest

It is a very odd position to come to terms with if true.

The norm is for the chairman and the board of a club to be desperate to avoid relegation and to talk of how bad a thing it would be and how unacceptable a situation it is.

Here we hear nothing.

Can only put that down as an acceptance. An acceptance seems to point to an unconcerned owner.

 

[Astute]

All we normally hear is about where this new ground is going to be or what is our fault. So not expecting much.

 

[Deleted member 5849]

Well he's clearly not comfortable with relegation, as we appointed a manager to try and stop us from being relegated.

What the financial constraints are, and how they affects that, are rather different to the above.

 

[mrtrench]

Someone starts a thread with exactly the same sentiments every transfer window. Make your minds up already.

Probably rupert every window tbf...

Or Venus forced the issue so they had to get a new manager?

 

[SkyBlueRuffian]

Coventry City in League 2 would cost less to run, so yes it suits SISU.

There are not the usual rumblings though, NW.

The norm from my experience is the board and chairman of any and every club publicly coming out and stating this is not acceptable and relegation would be a disaster. There is then also pressure put on the manager to get results.

Might just be Fisher thinks anything he says will be jumped all over with by the fans, but it is an odd situation and I have never encountered anything like this before.

Usually now there are all kinds of rumblings and board talk of just how disastrous and unacceptable a relegation would be.

Agreed. It will all come down to what's left in the budget, the low attendance s aren't going to help but hopefully the JPT run will have counter balanced that somewhat and the willis money may just give Slade a few quid for a fee, agents fees, wages. Sisu aren't going to put any more cash in.

I may be bending the truth, but not breaking it by writing that Fisher has commented that it would be a disaster if we were promoted.

 

[stevefloyd]

Fisher and co as I have written before couldn't give a rats ass about the playing side of it all they are interested in is the balance sheet regardless of where we are.. they have sunk our club into new depths and couldnt give a shit.... mission accomplished for them well done you evil shysters

 

[Kingokings204]

I really don't know anymore but I think sisu wanted a self sustained league 1 club. League 2 suits more than the championship for the business model.its designed to fail and it's failed. We will be relegated and I don't think it stops at league 2.

I don't think sisu want to be relegated but it doesn't seem to bother them also. No short term money in and lack of players shows this for me. Selling your top scorer in sordell doesn't help if you want to stay up does it?

So you'd pick someone cheaper than a manager with a track record of pulling teams up by their ankles. You'd pick, say, Ricketts... or one of the coaching staff.

The action of the club in appointing Slade is that they do not want relegation. Just because results have been poor does not alter that.

Not disagreeing in the least

The action of appointing these players also demonstrated that we are gearing ourselves up for league 2

Anyone else come to the conclusion that if we go down Slade will go and Ricketts will become manager?

my worry is that slade will go in about March - and Fisher will appoint himself as manager until the end of the season

 

[Sub]

No chance Fisher will not put himself in a position where the fans can get to him and give him a good hiding that easily

 

[Astute]

He has been watching our games for a while now. So at least he knows how we shouldn't be playing.

 

[Nick]

Maybe he has that disorder that people have when they look in the mirror and see something completely different.

Just that when he looks at footballers he sees something different. Jodi Jones is a 7 foot brick shit house to play long ball to!

My worry is that way past it big nosed twat will get somewhere near the management

Barry Manilow?

Barry Manilow?

Her name is Lola she was a showgirl....I must admit I did have to google those lyrics

Lola? I thought she looked like a woman but walked like a man?

 

[georgehudson]

So, so far in & leading up to this window it's 9 out & 1 retired, & 6 in,
& Fishface said we're going to make a profit of just under £1m, & the sale of players still goes on.
This is chronic mis-management & YOU Fisher are to blame

Good management in their eyes :greedy:

 

[georgehudson]

Imho ,the shit will hit the fan, all of this continued abuse of CCFC fans by Fisher & co., has been noted.
Imho, it is no secret that all hell will break loose at some point, no one condones violence,
but the tenure of control & ownership of OUR proud club is directly in question.
If, for example we were a public body looking after the community, & being run by this present regime, I dread to think what would be held against them.
A busted flush of so many years, & being run by persons who HATE us, imho, catastrophic & totally unsuitable management.
Perhaps the 'queen of debt', as labelled by many, may wish to comment & explain the invaluable contributions of messrs Bosco, Bradley, Clarke, Dulieu, Clouting, Igwe, Labowic, etc., it's been a while now since we heard her 'pearls of wisdom'.

What's that got to do with deadline day?

 

[rupert_bear]

Must be on the wrong thread.
Regarding the OP, told you so. How long as Slade been here now ? and all January to do any business in, last minute failed attempt to get striker in no attempt as I see it for midfield. Taking nothing from the young kid brought in from Watford I hope desperately he's another Adam Armstrong but where's the experience ? As said Tim Fisher is at ease with relegation as if it's almost a plan. Not blaming Slade by the way he must now realise what a percentage oison chalice managing City is

Yes, Told you so. Did players get sold?

 

[rupert_bear]

Obviously not which is a bonus but look at our goals scored column we needed a centre forward whether they sold players or not, David Blunket can see that. If this Kwame Thomas is fighting fit and can come in and do a job that might be ok, bit of a gamble though !
