    If that’s the case I may end up renewing after all;)

    Lots of fluff and little substance is all I’m hearing in this. The admission of poor communication and handling of situations is commendable, but there’s no real insight into what will be done and what the future plans are. Dane being a very young CEO clearly shows in this interview - I think he’s out of his depth.

    But it might be that in the main those that buy programmes are also those that access the info by other means.

    We don't know how our supporters find out information about the Club, but there are numerous
    things you can look or listen to if you are sufficiently interested.

    Just listened to it,very underwhelming. He's just an apologist in chief for Conway and Chien. The number of times he says 'I don't know' , 'I've no idea' is concerning for a CEO. As others have said,he sounds well out if his depth. That interview raises more concerns than reassurances for me

    Lots of we've made mistakes followed up by no attempt to correct them. A yes man

    Also losing money in league 1 is hardly a sound financial footing

    Hopefully, the board will listen to and properly back the Head Coach (not pay lip service and do their own thing) irrespective of which division we're in. Struber wanted more experience in the squad (just like Stendel asked for), identified his targets and the suits relented in January, allowing Ritzmaier & Sollbauer to be brought in. Perhaps they've learned from their mistakes. We'll see.

    ***THERE IS AN OFFER ON THE TABLE FOR MOWATT***

    Sounds like he's keeping his options open as well.

    So the plan is basically to get everyone so drunk they don’t realise / care we are playing in league one

    sounds good. Could work

    Total straight bat to most things put to him. No reassurance that the fab four won't move on; no detail on whether and what the owners have actually put in; no detail on ground and surroundings improvements; nothing said about the dreadful situation regarding parking or access to the ground. Others will have to form their own views but it did nothing to persuade me to review my decision not to renew.

    That’s the main thing I took from it too.

    Guess he doesn’t want to play league 1 again if we do indeed go down. I guess we’d trigger the extension and then sell him. Hopefully we stay up and he signs a decent contract though.

    Not impressed. Its a Party Political Broadcast of the general election flavour. Told us not-a-lot whilst basically admitting they want our custom next time around. My only surprise is that he didn't allude to 20,000 new cops or free broadband for all (read depending on political persuasion).

    In fact forget PPB, its American election season, I'll wait for the club version where I expect to see stars and stripes and Whitey and co stood behind him with orchestrated whoops, hollers, yee hars and waving ST renewals in lieu of ticker tape.

    If he wants to go we have to sell him. It’s the rule apparently.
