Shoddy for a club of its size that we've only won one cup in 25 years 
Also proves its own point that he's only actually sacked one manager since he came back, but all of the rest have left of their own accord... |
I think Deadly Doug is careful with the clubs money, he reminds me of Alan Sugar when he was at Spurs, a middle table side who retain their premiership status season after season, and as you say, rarely win anything
At least the club won't do a Leeds and go bust, I know Leeds never went under, but they were trading while being insolvent.
I hope for your sake that the club can turn things around on the pitch this coming season.
