Boycott

Against my better judgement, I turned up for another 90 mins of masochism today. Not again. Please join me in boycotting until Rowley has gone.

I completely get your sentiment and frustration. I am no apologist for the board/club/manager/team, but actions like this without some sort of "Plan B" could work against everyones best interests. The weaker the clubs finances, the less chance of attracting a suitable successor. Seems a little bit "chicken and egg" I guess - if the club was doing well and a going concern we wouldn't want a new chairman anyway.

I was looking at the Vics website today and read the message from their Chairman who basically seems to have written off whatever investment he has made (if any...I know not the details of what he may or may not have done...but I do look at their situation with some sadness and hope we do not end up in a similar mess). Boycotts seems a step in that direction however.

That said...I don't have any words of wisdom about how to resolve this mess :(

I wish our defence had Boycott's mindset of giving nothing away. At the moment it is a corridor of uncertainty.

Boycot is not the answer Rowley can just then stay in his shell. Turn up and verbally tell what we think of his business skills. He is a coward and cant deal with confrontation.

Maybe if you are just wandering down there but when it's setting you back between 9 and 24 hours at £75-£150 per game then enough is enough.

This sums up the problem with the Rowley out mob.  It's not the business skills that is causing the problem, it's the footballing skills. Throwing money at stuff does not always fix things - sure having money is better than not having it but it has to be used properly and that is where recent managers have ballsed it up.

Success in business is not about only money. Management skills and communication and organisation are key and the mob at the top of AFC seem to have few of these. Passion also counts!
