Not so sure. I have the feeling that they (49ers Enterprises), thought they could squeeze Radrizzani following our relegation, get LUFC for a song (relatively speaking), having previously populated the club with "friendly faces" (the Yank, and his cohort), demonstrating how little they knew about English football. The unseemly mish mash of managerial candidates following Yeehas departure was another sign of what little the Enterprises management knew (or cared to find out). I also suspect that all the exit clauses Orta inserted in player contracts was a deliberate act, meant to sabotage the club in any effort either to sell said players at something like market value, or to seek to develop some if not all during the rebuilding period spent in the Championship. In any event, he club was lef with a scratch squad, and a manager who was fourth or fifth choice. The Enterprises management won't have seen that coming.
To be fair to Der Fuhrer, as you have said in other posts, he has managed to get us into a much better position that anyone could have hoped for, and the Enterprises management must have seen $ signs all the way back to the PL (hence their willingness to make public statements regarding investment in ground improvements being conditional on promotion, a hostage to fortune if ever there was one).
Anyway, no matter what conversations take place, if we aren't promoted there is likely to be a player exodus on a similar scale to last season, but concerning players we really need to keep, coupled with a reluctance by Enterprises purse string holders to spend what would be necessary to replace those who leave (and more) while we remain a Championship side.
And yes, I'll be accused of being a neghead, always looking on the bleak side, but of the above, what is factually incorrect, or a flight of (negative) fantasy? Wish it was otherwise, maybe Ipswich will lose all their remaining matches and we go up automatically, then what? With this squad of players?
Oh, and to answer the thread question, look up, since Silver we have suffered because our owners didn't know quite what they were doing. Same now.
