the biggest mistake TS has made this season is not keeping the fans informed..
he made his choice in manager and it didnt work out. he gave him free reign to bring in which players he wanted (to a budget) he then appointed another manager who 99% of millers fans would have said. "yes hes the one to take us forwards". that also didnt work out.
people keep saying he should bring in investment. theres no such thing as free investment. whoever invest will want a return.. it may be a short term fix but long term it will cripple a small club like our-self's

the only hope i have so far regards next season is. from the last time we were in the 1st division we had the 6th highest budget...
with the looks of it next season we should have the 3rd highest budget...
add to that the players we already have should make us a decent force...
we all know we need a manager and between the 20/30 MM posters you could come up with 5 or 6 names...
Ok, let's move on from my argument that TS chucked it all away with 28 games to go (although your dad was obviously right about that as well &#128521.
Let's assume you're correct and that we may have the third largest budget in League 1 next season but if, by some miracle that allows us to come straight back up, then what?
Recent experience suggests there will be no plan to consolidate in the Championship because TS apparently doesn't have the wherewithal or maybe the inclination to fund a competitive campaign at that level.
So what then? Another season from hell with defeat after defeat, unhappy supporters, disillusioned sponsors?
What's the point of going round in that vicious circle again?
I know it's not easy to attract additional investment and maybe the Stewart family don't want to loosen their grip on the club anyway. But if we are ever to see real progress there really is no alternative to bringing in extra funding simply to allow us to compete at a reasonable level and keep out of that bottom three.
