    We've been in managed decline since the Invincibles, no wonder Rodgers couldn't wait to * off.

    And some in the support still wonder why rodgers bolted , it wouldn’t suprise me in the slightest if Howe seen this mobs plan for going forward and refused to put pen to paper.

    Kyogo. A phenomenon
    The euro fuckups of the last few years (not this latest debacle) have crippled any disguise of their scattergun approach, alongside frankly an abysmal approach in the transfer market.

    In the last 3 years we have bought the following players I can think of who were intended to be first team squad minimum.

    No one has a confirmed total cost for these guys, but I put it between 40-45 million pounds.

    45

    million.

    pounds.

    let’s have a quick check on the success rate

    I am not that fussed about the transfer policy - buy in and sell on. There’s no TV money, and players who prosper see the money and - frankly - a better league not revolving around trips to * Dingwall in January and think to themselves “yip - I’m off thanks very much.”

    The real issue is spending the money on some real *. The hit rate is dreadful.

    Here’s the list I can think of. The board take the blame for putting the recruitment people they have in to the positions of authority they have - then take responsibility for pulling the trigger.

    less so - for me - of biscuit tin mentality.

    They just don’t spend it well, and recruitment is diabolical.

    A frightening amount of money * away on dross, in a league where money is simply not there. Below is approx 75% of every penny taken in on season tickets in 3 years.

    * scandalous.

    So could many within the support, the intelligent ones anyway.

    There have been banners in the stadium over the past number of seasons because we've been watching a managed decline.

    It's not like it wasn't difficult to see either. Obviously the jakey * who was tasked with overseeing the decline didn't have the * brains to notice, but when you go from Brendan Rodgers to a sack of * like Lennon, when you're replacing Tierney with Taylor or Bongoli, Lustig with Ralston, letting a 35 year old Scott Brown be run into the ground, it's fairly clear there's going to be a car crash.

    The club needs a total refurbishing, top to bottom.

    Youth setup is not producing good enough lads for the first team.

    Recruitment team is failing time and time again, bringing in players and coaching staff clearly not up to the required standard.

    Coaching and medical staff failing to keep the squad fit to the important games.

    The squad is far from good enough to qualify for the CL or win the league. Seing us knocked out tonight was expected.

    Two or three new players wont change anything unless they are some sort of born again Henke.

    100% responsible for that tonight.

    Dom spoke at Ange's press conference along the lines about putting him in the best position possible. * me!!

    Season after season they have hamstrung the managers in charge attempting to qualify for the Champions League. A competition that is important for the club to progress on and off the field. Based on the * preparation and effort going into it over the last 5 years. They couldn't give a flying *.

    All the baw satchels who spoke up in defence of these * frauds when banners like the one previously posted, want to * right off. Part of the * problem. Every single one then and before were spot on.

    Midjyland, AEK, Cluj, Frenecvaros, Legia Warsaw(won by default), Copenhagen and Malmo just some of the teams that have parped us out of in the last 6 or 7 years.

    Absolute Charlatans and Fraudsters are involved in running this football club.

    There was a point after a month of the Howe saga that we got told he and his side was doing their due diligence on the club,
    After that we never heard much again from either side till the club made comment that the deal was dead, after they got the fans money.

    No doubt he will have taken one look at the club, what our ambition and vision was, then * off as quick as he could.

    Also no doubt that he will have called Rodgers to enquire about it, both will respect each other and Rodgers will have told him everything.

    Maribor, Malmo, AEK Athens, Cluj, Ferencvaros and Midjtylaand.

    All teams we have been knocked out by at various stages, all teams who our budget dwarfs, all teams who if we prepared properly and invested in the FOOTBALLING team, we would have beat and would have made approximately £240m from in qualification fees alone, before you even count tickets, exposure for players to then sell on etc etc. Watching that tonight, we should have beaten them with an academy defence for the most part, imagine what we could do if we had someone willing to invest at the club?

    As long as these * are in charge and are not forced to answer for their mistakes, NOTHING will change.

    I'm on here every year, every summer since 2012, saying the same things time and time again. We haven't learned a * * thing in nearly 10 year. Aye, weve qualified, but even under Lennon and Rodgers we went into the qualifiers woefully underprepared, Oconnell at CB vs Astana, Bitton playing at CB, no RB, no main striker, no goalkeeper, no settled squad, players who dont want to be here playing etc etc. You name it, weve had the problem. Deila? He was another one sold short by this board, a good guy with great ideas who if properly backed could have done more in Europe.

    We are THE worst run club of our size anywhere in the world. Period. Yet these * get away with it time and time again.

    Im done. Im fully behind the manager but reality is he will do nothing if this lot dont stand up and take some responsibility.

    They did a braw job of saving the Bears, they must be proud.

    I'm praying they don't hand them an invincible treble, as I think that's a chance of happening, they'll slap us about in the 4 games no doubt.

    Oh we've * up.

    There is far too many happy clappers in our support that continually accept the * that the board serve up.

    4 years on the trot we have failed to quality and being embarrassed at every attempt.

    After last season, the board should have been desperate to make amends and they’ve made bad decision after bad decision. Took far too long to appoint a manager, decided not to appoint a DOF and been too slow with bringing new players in.

    This season has the potential to be a massive hangover from last season if the board fail to act now. They won’t act now though, there is no evidence to suggest they will.

    Back Ange, Sack the Board! Get behind the GB and NCC who are planning protests against these charlatans.

    100% Howe didn’t sign for that reason in my opinion.
