Dear Neil,
I am appalled you have let Dean Ashton leave stating you could not stand in the players way. Simon Jordon told Andy Johnson to belt up when he asked to move to Anfield stating he had signed a contract and must now honour it. What a shame this board is too spineless to do so (or maybe you wanted the move but used this as a smokescreen?)
Either way, I expect 6 million to be spent on QUALITY (NOTE QUALITY IE. PASSING, EXPRESSIVE RATHER THAN 'GOOD ENGINE') if I am to renew my families 8 season tickets. You have lied to us this season by saying the money recouped from Francis would be spent on players - only half was spent and we got some frankly useless loan deals.
I AND MY FAMILY WILL NOT RENEW SEASON TICKETS WITH PROMISES OF TRANSFER ACTIVITY DURING THE SUMMER BREAK BECAUSE WE NO LONGER TRUST THE MESSAGES COMING FROM THE BOARD. Now is the time to show us the colour of you money and now is the time to act to save face with the fans. You have known about this sale and had time to get deals in place and whilst I wouldnt trust this manager to buy me a loaf of bread, I expect you to make sure that QUALITY is bought instead of the usual old cloggers.
For what its worth my choices would be Wright (Wigan), Earnshaw (WBA), Brown (Spurs loan), Commons (Forest) plus one cheap target man from Sunderland that you seem so keen on. PLEASE NOTE THESE PEOPLE ARE QULITY FOOTBALLERS NOT HOOFING JOURNEYMEN!!!
Now is the time to act, you and the board have lost much of the trust we fans shared and failure to act now may damage it beyond repair.
