I agree! Turn back the clock though to the play offs against Villa. Had the board appointed a decent proven manager ( not a rookie ) we would have most likely won both legs. We were better than Villa and had a better squad but they got lucky because of parking the bus at their place and sending offs.

Look how far Villa have come since!!! Look how far we have sunk since!!! I blame the ownership/board once again!

Lai/Dowling - Out!!!!!!!
