Would you rather we protest by not attending and watch the Club go under?
The fans role is more than just turn up on the day and cheer. We should not just sit on the sidelines. The club may not belong to us but it is our club.. We will be here long after the brothers are gone and so have a right ( yes right ) to expect and demand signs of ambition. Lack of money or ambition can kill a club.

We should be targeting top spot because that is the only guaranteed way out of this league and I want to hear our owners say that. And see some progress towards it.

The alternative will be a long term drift to mediocrity and irrelevance, especially with Forest 4 tiers above us.

I seem to recall the club statement issued on the day of Burchnall's departure that they had always realised that it might happen some day. As such they must have had a plan and we really ought now to be seeing some sign of what it is. I know it is only 2 weeks but if we've not heard anything after 3 I will be getting really worried.

My view for what it is worth is that the new man must have a proven record of success. Anything less is hope rather than that ambition.
