Personally, I think we all underestimated the scale of the task Nestor and Patel took on.
Agreed.
Fundamentally we have very serious systemic problems running throughout the club structure. Possibly going back to the take over by the communist guy a while back.
We sell potentially decent players to turn a quick profit but it prevents the club from building or laying out a clear going forward strategy.
There doesn't appear to be any vision for the club beyond survival. So the on book damage inherited by the current owner could be very serious.
As long as that overhangs, then we can expect to remain a low to middle range championship club for the next few seasons.
