It's time the board took a long hard look at themselves. They've hid behind managerial appointments and allowed them to be publicly humiliated, going as far back as Martinez. When everybody knew their time was up.
If the best they can come up with this time around is David Moyes, it's simply gross incompetence. As was the appointment of Allardyce. To hear his ex-players talking him up, tells you all need to know. Jobs for the boys, shandies all round.
If that doesn't raise red flags, we have Carragher saying he's the best we can hope for. The lot across the park are rejoicing. They know we will never compete if he rolls up.
And this is the crux. When Benitez called us out as a small club, was he wrong? Absolutely, but we were and have been acting like one. The board is to blame for that, not the managers, players or supporters. It's on their doorstep.
They may know about business but they know nothing about football. They need to hire someone who isn't a yes man, somebody who will rock the boat. Fight, get in the faces of officials, the league, journalists and aggressively pursue what this club was intended to do. Win...Win and win again.
It makes enemies and your hated. Good. The last time we won the league your Reids, Grays, Van de Hauwes. They knew what it took. Winners, it's a mentality and a way of life. Our boardroom is filled with cowards who hide behind their asinine appointments.
They don't know what they are doing. Appoint someone who does ffs.
