players come players go thats a fact at every club
whats wrong at OUFC is various board members, as well as KR, have categorically stated that we dont have to sell any of our players unless the offer is exceptional .... while theres something of a veil over the fosu & baptiste fee, I think the various figures being bandied about, albeit 'unconfirmed' are way below what some would perceive as exceptional .
Therefore the various board members ,( and KR), have lied - thats the big issue here the lies
we've been told by the chairman that promotion to the championship is a genuine target this season. A lie, an out and out lie, why sell give away two of your first team assets for peanuts (in reality) and not replace them, why do you not bring in a full back and striker to boost the clubs promotion aspirations IF promotion is a genuine target?
we've a sizable unbudgeted wadge of £ from cup runs and tv appearances , where has that gone? Not on new OUFC players, the board , the MD , The Chairman have lied, lied and lied to the supporters. Also they've allowed the squad to be ripped apart, and by their lies, have managed to extinguish much of the optimism I had for this season
talk about putting one in your own net, the board have successfully alienated some of the supporters with lies, and a display of total lack of ambition. Trust takes a while to earn and mere seconds to lose.
The current board have lost any shreds of trust I had in them, and anything they state in future I shall be viewing with extreme suspicion, as they are proven liars
Browne and Holland in on loan, sorry, they're not our players we have to give them back, Browne was a greedy player when here before, from what Ive seen he's just as greedy this time around, he's not much of a team player IMO, ...Holland is here to develop on behalf of his parent club, he's not been very consistent performance-wise in his appearances so far.... Atkinson acquired and then loaned back out , Kelly has played one game (abroad) all season, so he's still not match fit! .... its been an absolutely crap transfer window IMO...... an injury blighted squad before the 2 loanees plus unfit Kelly and loaned out Atkinson even arrived.
Still, the board has proved that they are liars and not to be trusted at all. They only have themselves to blame, lying to the supporters and getting found out is quite a ridiculous thing to do, but do it they have be found out.
Bollox to em, the supporters were here before this current shower, and will be here long after theyre gone.
Any trust I may have had in the current Chairman or board has disappeared
Even if we end up emphatically beating Blackpool tomorrow and beating Newcastle tues night ( which I hope we do) that wont change my view of the board and chairman
