The trouble is there is pretty much nobody else involved on the board as well. He is wet behind the ears kid who is woefully out of his depth running us.

Faulkner may be a capable businessman, but the Board is woefully short of football experience. Good leaders appoint people to cover weaknesses, this is something that lerner has not done.

Think he's a bean counter personally. Certainly not the normal type of CE you see at a club, more the type you get when the recievers appoint an administrator.  Bottom line is the finances, and it reflects in the woeful PR and their managerial choices. I've said before this reliance on youth thing is his idea and i've not changed my mind.

The only education we know of is he read history at university. I don't think he was an accountant at MBNA.

Can we find him a joj as a histroy teacher

looking at his dad's profile I think he using artisitc licence Luton were never in the Prenier League nor the Top League in the mid 1990s

He's been an unmitigated disaster of a Chief Exec. If you look at what has happened in his time in the role, he couldn't have done much worse. When we go down it'll just be part of his continuing failure.

I don't blame him. He doesn't make the big decisions, Randy does.
Faulkner has done a good job increasing commercial revenue and the daily running of the club back office. That afterall is his remit.
He can now add to that 'Lerner's scapegoat'.

Has he increased commercial revenue though? I'd suggest any increases in club revenue in the last 3 season's would be down to TV revenue pure and simple. The man has been an unmitigated disaster in my view.

He has. You're wrong on the first point so that would make you also wrong on your second point.

It's not that hard a job though is it.
Add up Dosh given from Sky, Randy and us lot. Appoint a coach then tell him how much money he has. Then spruce up the executive areas once a decade to add in a little more cash and for the rest of the time rub shoulders with other footy celebrities. Oh and every 2 seasons try and find an unknown company who wants to advertise on our shirts.

If he is so good commercially, you'd think he'd make it very clear to Lerner that missing out on the Premier League next year will be a financial disaster.

Have you any stats or data to back that assertion up?  I'm sure I recall looking through the y/e accounts for the last 3 year's and they showed that whilst revenue increased that was predominantly down to TV revenue?  Where's Risso when you need him?

Paul, do you really think he hasn't?

And there lies the problem.

Well I don't know, but the clubs actions would indicate a complete lack of awareness of that fact.
