The irony is, he was "placed" on the board because the fans complained about the make up of the board, so they changed it, and now they are moaning because they apparently never listen to fans. The fans also disagreed with Brands being on the board, and ive since seen people (Toffee TV) arguing that Thelwel should be if he is to be able to fulfil his duties as a DOF correctly, and the fact that he isnt is a basic mistake.
In the time since Moshiri has been here, i think we mustve had 9 or 10 different board members. The main problem, and its a big 1, is that people dont like Kenwright being involved. Ive never been his biggest fan, but the agenda to have him removed has been going for almost his entire tenure, and preceeded Moshiri taking over by more than a decade.
We have failed on the pitch, its impossible to deny, but surely people cannot genuinely say that there havent been some improvements in the last few years? A new stadium shaped improvement that is getting bigger and better each passing week is proof of 1 if them.
We have appointed several managers, basically 1 every year, including Carlo Ancelotti, and backed the majority of them with money. Money we mostly wasted granted, but wasted in attempts to make leaps forward that we all wanted.
We have tried, and tried, and tried, and that may well point to mismanagement, but there have also been some rather large extenuating circumstances, as well as some genuine naivety.
None of us genuinely know what is happening behind the scenes, so lots of assumptions are made based on lots of hindsight. And that has led to the situation we see ourselves in now, where fans are protesting that the results of the attempts have not been good enough. And fair enough, our fans are upset that it hasnt worked, and passionate about the club that they love.
But singling people out as being rats based on what boils down to assumptions of what they believe has happened, and personal relationships that they have built in process, is unnecessary.
You can ask for change and improvement without the hostility.
Considering the big key word that most of these people call for is "communication", you would assume this would be obvious.
Apparently not.
