what disturbs me more is our Boards reluctance to take any sort of

responsability for the debacle of mismanagement since our relegation from the premiership. The impression I got from the AGM was ''it's all Peter Grant's fault'' also hidden by a pillar the top table of Smith, Jones, Munby & Doncaster sat isolated from the Football management team & my impression was the Football bit is over there we are not accountable for that bit.
We give them the budget and how they run it is up to them. I don't like Roeder but the Board are a bigger problem.
