Quote from: sfx412 on August 26, 2010, 10:40:36 PMGeneral, for 3 seasons our European qualification has been blown away by giving no respect to the opposition and picking weak teams, especially in the away leg.I appreciate the new policy is to use the kids as much as possible, to save money perhaps, but it hasn't worked. Does the Board appreciate this, and should a miracle happen and we qualify again next season, which seems very unlikely, will the team selection policy remain the same?Whilst I appreciate we won the Peace Cup and went to Wembley twice, we have sold off our 2 best players in successive seasons and are now managed by a reserve team coach who on his last 3 results doesn't seem to have grasped the idea of what is required to manage a great club in the Premiership. In your opinion is that the way a club with top 4 ambitions should be run, even in the short term?If we're judging winning the Peace Cup as some mark of success, we're only a couple of steps above the Blues and their listing FA Cup semi final appearances on their "honours" list.I'd hope we'd be way above that.

Randy Lerner has failed this club by raking in almostŁ20m profit this summer and not appointing a manager yet! Don't worry Lerner the window is almost over so you can keep your cash, the lack of a manager is a disgrace.we are out of Europe and may now attract lesser managers- I've rarely felt this club has been going downhill fast as much as I feel it now.

Can't say I've noticed that myself.
P.S. On a less offensive note, pass this along to K-Mac before the Everton game--------Petrov----NRC----------Albrighton---------------Young--------------Ireland-----------------------Agbonlahor----------This is a winning formation. You have two disciplined and defensively solid midfielders protecting the defense and keeping possession, two wingers in their natural positions, an attacking CM playing in his best position and feeding through balls to a speed demon of a striker.Easy eh?
I'm not impressed with the lack of speed in appointing a manager, but I think Randy is a good way off making a profit out of us yet. The main reason we're in this mess is that O'Neill wasted so much money.
