I think this is really pathetic from the club, and it looks like they are sticking their noses in again far too much, and telling the coach/manager what to do.
Now you can see why they didn't have the guts to talk to Colin last season, in an attempt to keep us up. They want a 'yes' man coach (not a manager) who will do what he's told, and do his best to coach them up to first team standards.
Its a ridiculous cup anyway now where most teams make big changes, in the first few rounds. But we could have taken this seriously, and I certainly don't blame the kids, by the sounds of it they did as well as we could have expected from them.
If we're going to keep doing this though in every cup game from now on, then it makes me think what is the point in it all. 😩
