I agree with you SW. I am going to file this into the past now.
The club has now taken action, brought in the best manager currently available, and actioned the relegation. Whether this should have been done earlier in the season is now immaterial, the board felt they were doing the right thing but it did not work out I'm afraid; so we move on.
I have not commented, but I agree the performance was spineless and not what I anticipated on the way down to Braintree. From the board down to us the fans, we were all taken by surprise by what happened at Braintree.
In my own conclusion from this game, there are players who have no wish to stay at the club, good or otherwise. What I want Neil Young to do first is get all our current players together, find out those who want to stay and are good enough. Those who are not fully committed whether good enough or not, should be removed. I want players who want to play for the club, there are 9 or 10 I believe from the current squad who do fit this criteria. We will find out who they are when the retain list is published. Expect possibly some surprises.
After that it is up to Neil, the rebuilding during the summer is going to be interesting, and I feel much better now the board have acted swiftly. Looking forward to next season more now, I don't ask for immediate promotion, but steady re-building. Lets see what happens on the roller-coaster that is Alty FC.
