Do you guys posting that all of the players are crap seriously believe that? I do hope not. The problem, as I see it, is in morale and team cohesion. We all know that the squad is imbalanced, but I strongly suspect that, were everyone available for selection, our 'first choice' matchday squad would look quite formidable on paper. On grass it hasn't looked that way, unfortunately. I believe Ardley's first task will be to draw a line under the first part of this season and start a new season today.
With that in mind, does anyone agree that having repetitive attacks on the players, coaching staff, owner, tea lady, kitman et all is even remotely going to help us fight off the relegation threat and start climbing this table? Obviously it isn't, and I'm 100% sure that anyone with even a modicum of brainpower actually knows this.
Can we try having a clean slate ourselves on here starting today perhaps? How about we give Ardley that platform to build on, as well as the one he will walk in to today at the club?
Having a leaky boat is rarely helped by having peope drilling holes in the hull from the inside after all. The Nolan, Kewell, Chettle eras are gone...let's usher in the Ardley era with a bit more bloody hope!
