    I don't remember much moaning on here about the players that came in at the time. In fact, we were lorded for doing early business and nicking guys that other teams were chasing. Guess that's where the money's gone.
    It hasn't worked, but it's only football. Anyone who's really upset with the situation, I advise to not go to matches.
    My 8 year old grandson loves going, win or lose, and I love taking him.

    Same here Jocks I take my son he’s autistic and win lose or draw he loves it and while ever that’s the case I’ll keep taking him the season tickets will be renewed although I do question my sanity at times and know there will be a lot of empty seats next season which leads me on to main point that both Evans and TS think the fans are stupid in TS case his lack of communication as leader of the club and Evans with his daft talk someone at work says someone was trying to organise a protest similar to the Wednesday fans did with tennis balls being thrown on to the pitch but I admit I haven’t seen anything on line
    I personally think this is far from the worst team I have seen in Millers colours having gone through like many others the Bergara and George Kerr eras but fully respect anyone who wishes to stay away as a form of protest the few of us that do go are undoubtedly taken for granted and the many away fans that go far and wide in my opinion deserve a medal or sectioning depending on your view!

    I personally do not believe a word that comes out of Evans?s mouth.
    One thing I am suspicious of is that Evans will be quite happy to throw anybody under the bus including Stewart.

    You seem hell bent on arguing with people rather than discussing anything. I said he's autocratic, which addresses any point around his willingness to change anything or take the wisdom of others.

    It doesn't does it? A person can have an autocratic style, but still take advice from others, firstly to see how his style is affecting the organisation, also a person can adapt their style. I think saying his apparent autocratic style, could be influencing his decision making in ways that are not benefitting the organisation.

    "taking no account of other people's wishes or opinions; domineering." (Cambridge)

    Broadly my interpretation and why I wrote what I wrote.

    I don't need you to get your dictionary out, I know what the word means. You said "I said he's autocratic, which addresses any point around his willingness to change anything or take the wisdom of others." in that you use an absolute which isn't true. Someone who is autocratic cannot change, any person can change if they choose to, you are stating he cannot, there is no way on earth unless you are TS can you know that.
