They are not flawed at all and fans will attack me for my thoughts instead of trying to solve the problems. Nobody else thinks about how much the non players and three managers and more managers and then cannnot think why we cannot afford better players. Alex Ferguson was a dire scot and players like Beckham were frightened of him. I heard him say that. LB says he doesn't rant at the players for a poor performance etc. Why not if all you do is 90 mins work a week?

I ask again IF you preformed poorly at work for 6 months running then you cannot complain if you get sacked. Managers and Players need to be on a much shorter contract which will put the cost of wages down as they are getting silly when some players are getting 400 grand WEEK now. If you are successful you expect to continue to work and get a contract. How much money are these managers even at Div4 costing the club when they can go ten games without winning? We end up sacking managers eventually and will do so again if LB carries on as he left off. We sacked Steve Holland, we sacked even Dario, we sacked every single one when they don't perform and so clubs get there in the end but it cost them. I don't know what wages anyone gets here but we ought to know as most wages are in the public sector and so why not footballers? Dave Artell said Port Vale are the biggest spenders in this division and the players on fantastic wages. We know of smaller clubs than us in L1 who pay better wages and even in non league and so the question then becomes....HOW?

I say again, go and look at the empty seats in most lower league clubs now and you tell me if football is a success or not?
