If the club is relegated then the owners lose £££millions.
And ST sales will drop to nearly half.
No way do the owners want to be relegated.
But it’s confusing trying to understand the owners strategy in trying to stay in the Championship.
You would think - that under the current disaster of this season - the owners would implement a salvage plan.
Employ someone like Warnock with a contract until the end of the season - with a bonus payment if the club stays up.
And in the meantime negotiate an agreement with Asbaghi to manage the club from the start of next season.
If the club does get relegated - it’s for one reason and for one reason only - and that’s the instruction from the directors to change how the team plays.
And that sort of links into the disastrous signing of Obbi.
The directors could take a chance on Obbi because there wasn’t really a desperate need for a replacement for Dike (target striker) - as the direct style of play had been dumped.
Instead of implementing steady changes to how the team plays over a season - the directors decided to throw the baby out with the bath water.
Barnsley deserves to be relegated when directors are making decision like that.
