THE TREWS

Posted by MAGPIE 64 on May 3, 2015, 8:37 pm

They have allegedly put into the club £19 million and taken us back to where we were 5 years ago. That to me is sufficient evidence that they know nothing about running a football club like Notts County.

The sooner they go the better.

And who are the millionaires waiting to take over ? Five years ago we were about to go under. At least this is only a playing crisis.

It isn't, it's an investment crisis, he clearly does not give the manager enough money for success.

What did he say a few months back, we have the 18th best budget in the division, says it all.

Football clubs are not businesses in the true sense of the word and if he isn't prepared to invest money without wanting it back he should sell up. He says he's invested £19m for all I know it could be £10m hardly a lot of money in football terms....in fact in football terms it is peanuts.

He should have given Cotterill are proper budget but wouldn't now it has cost the idiot even more.

Frankly I have to agree. Who in the right mind would sack a manager with 8 games to go and employ someone who only plays fancy football. It is no good in this league or the fourth now were in it, the rules of theses leagues are that we must be tough and strong.

Do I believe we would have got out of it with Shaun? yes I do. I cant remember much of the season were we capitulated so badly at the end of the match. They should have left him in till the end and then sacked him if we went down.

If we had the budget he set last season what ever that might or not have been, then next season will be even less.

I do fear for the future of the club, anyone thinks it will be a walk in the park is sadly mistaken. Hope I'm proved wrong but cant see it.

As for my retained list well!!! If that is all they can muster then get rid of them all.
Mullins man of the match? the first time this season aint it? get rid I say, the captain should be leading from the front.

He is not the only one. Can we rebuild? I hate all the end of season clear outs and having to start again, but who or what do we employ? who would want to come? and who would want to stay?

In answer to your statement Mr M then yes WE HAVE TO FIND SOMEONE TO TAKE THE CLUB FORWARD.
Yes there aren't billionaires around that would want to invest but surely there is someone who wants to make the club a success.
Once they put his missus in charge then the writing was on the wall.

JP lets not blame Preston or anyone else for that matter, it is OURS and ours alone who blew it. The players weren't upto the task. You just dont lose a 1 goal lead in the 89th minute and also concede 3, that is criminal in anybodys book, and even worse in out situation.
Why didn't the manager chuck on extra defenders? we had them on the bench for god's sake (sorry for blasphemim) I'm steaming to say the least.

Lets all hope this isnt the end of our ONCE great club.

It was a TOTAL disaster.
There is no romance in League 2.
Get hardworking bullies in to replace the ones that will leave.
Retain Caroll, Adams, Noble, Jones, the Thompsons and Spencer the rest we can do without.

Yes, football is a business Mr M but I'm afraid that no businessman will put money into a business that he doesn't want to get back because it wouldn't be a business then. It would be a charity. As for financing the playing budget, Derry created a squad of FIFTY players. That is not a club surviving on bad management. At some stage you have to look at Derry and ask why his players wouldn't perform for him and never looked like they would.This is where the rot set in, not on the last day but in the total incompetence that went before.The fact that he played for us kept him here longer than he should have been but you can hardly suggest he wasn't given the support. The Trews are guilty of picking bad anagers I agree and they will pay for that with falling attendances and lack of funds coming in so they'll certainly be as keen as we are to get an answer. I have no idea if this new man will do the job - only time will tell but being Notts, we will pick ourselves up and get on with it. I'd like to get back straight away but I'm more concerned at the moment about freefall and ending up like this again. We're totally in the hands of this new manager now to keep us in the league.I'm trying not to think about this at the moment and concentrate on away trips to York, Morecambe and Mansfield which will be the high points of next season.

Was it Shaun who got he loan players in?

With Trew and Rodwell pulling the budget strings I am not convinced Shaun was solely responsible for bringing so many players in.

TREW OUT ....NOW!

I'll check....no they're still here. I don't think they would have the knowledge of what players to bring in at this level. We must assume Shaun knew who he could get.

So the man who made us some money as gone as well.
First Rodwell and now IRVINE.
Who the hell wants to work for the TREW'S, they obviously know what we suspect.
Down with the TREW'S
From a sunny NZ
