Tom Fox's meeting with Supporters

[Toronto Villa]

This patronising plank really doesn't have a clue.

What do you expect him to say?

I certainly don't expect to hear him waffle on about how the commercial side.  I'd say 90% of fans couldn't care less.  As for Reilly being really important to Lerner, words fail me.

Did you even listen to the entire thing? Because by the sounds of it you stopped listening when he was discussing the commercial side and missed everything else afterwards.

I did listen to the whole thing.  I would say he's a total blagger.  I wouldn't trust him to run a bath, never mind a football club.

very good, so an educated and mature response. I was really hoping for you to explain how he was patronizing which you have conveniently avoided.

He's in charge of a business; it's only natural that he put a positive spin on everything.

Like raving about the away support when we've starting taking the smallest available allocation.

Like saying he doesn't understand why people think Lerner should actually get his backside over here and show a bit of interest.

Like saying Lerner loves the club.  Does he really expect people to believe that?

[nick harper]

Have to say, you'd never guess we were on our longest run without a league win in our history from that interview.

I accept he needs to come across as positive but I'd like to understand why he thinks the last 4 months have been so wretched.

LTA, I'm not engaging in a quotathon. He's complimented the supporters and repeatedly said the playing side hasn't been good enough. That isn't patronising. Randy being here or not isn't an issue. Have you noticed it is nearly 2016 and they can talk to or see Randy every day. It's not like he has to physically be at the club to influence or make decisions. What if actually does love the club and has just made a number of bad decisions? Does that make him not love it?

[peter w]

Seriously what will he say? We're on a losing run because the owner's absent, there has been a lack of investment, and poor management and sigings for the team? he has to remain positive not only if he wants to keep his job but also to look attractive to any potential investors.

[kippaxvilla2]

Fair play to Tom Ross for not bottling it.

[kippaxvilla2]

One thing that still leaves me confused is squaring the the statement about only putting proper building blocks in place for the long term future in the last year if Sherwood was his only choice at the time of  lamberts sacking.  Presumably Sherwood was to be part of that long term vision then?

So doesn't he fly in? Why do they have to fly out?

Christ you don't really think he loves the club do you?

I too find it a strange expression. Like a 14 year-old saying he loves some girl in his class.

[kippaxvilla2]

He loves shummamites more.

In truth I don't give a shit if he does or not. All I care about is that he does the right thing by it. I don't see that or his presence at the club as a topic worthy of discussion. All that matters is that he makes good decisions and over the past few years he hasn't made enough of them.
