Sack the Board
#21
I don't think we need any history lessons, the downhill spiral started 2 years ago. Everything we have done has turned sour - managers - signings - sales - loans. As for Lai saying he is not investing that's up to him. All clubs in the championship get an average £20 million funding from their owners per season. With his attitude and Jenkins holding the rudder a recruitment team, who have signed nobody since August. What do we really expect. To get out of this league you need confidence and ambition throughout the club and show it week in week out. Sadly we don't have either.

I said sack the board - the Directors. Jenkins and co. Fucking clueless. 

Jokanovic should have been appointed the monday after Big Dave was sacked.

Any other club wouldn’t have hesitated

“A bit more money”?  They paid barely £40m for Wolves as a mid-table Champ club. We were a PL club finishing top half with no debt. We were worth 4 or 5 times what Wolves were worth and that’s what Peace got.  Wolves were ideal for the Fosun project because there was a lot of upside from buying them at that price, and there was no upside in buying us at our value then.  Wolves today are worth no more than what Peace got for us when we finished top 10.

So why did it go to nearly signing contracts? You carry on supporting him if you like I blame him as much as lai for the mess we are in

I’m sure it didn’t go as close as you think to signing contracts.  They certainly showed interest though.

I won’t blame Peace for accepting a deal that no sane businessman would decline

Because he never invested a penny of his own money
Walked away with a lovely pot despite not investing any of his own cash
Sold it at a massively over inflated price to a bloke who thought he was buying Man U

We had our chances & blew it under the Peace reign
We could have invested to push on but never did

Peace kept TP on to protect the price of the club

So we can keep hiring & firing managers as it don't mean jack

A line in The Who song -Wont get fooled again
"Meet the new boss, same as the old boss"

Unless we are sold to someone whom loves WBA 
We are stuck with Chairman Meo. He wont sell unless it gets what he paid for it 

He's got more chance of shitting in the queens handbag

Peace never had any money to invest until after he sold. His wealth WAS his shareholding in the club.  He couldn’t invest what he didn’t have. He knew he couldn’t take the club forward - that’s why he was trying to sell for at least 2 years.

Lai kept Pulis on - not Peace.

The thing to blame Peace for is not offering Ashworth a deal that he couldn’t have afforded to turn down for the FA.  Ashworth leaving was the moment the club turned.

Peace never had any money to invest?

Heard it was a bit of a struggle living in Belgravia, London

The quick firing on the Sat night sent out signals that they must have had a certainty lined up.
Alas the abject incompetence at owner and board level struck again and guess what ? No plan a month later !!
