I was surprised at how many Burton fans left after they went two down. Is their discontent between them and the management?

So if the club owe “me” £6million and I want out and hoped I’ll get my £6 million back when I sell.
Trouble is my ownership in the asset ain’t worth anything like the money I’ve put in so unlikely anyone will offer that much.
The public/ fans want the owner to spend another £5-10 million to make the facility better and the asset/cash flow a bit better for now and in the long term.
Trouble is I want out now and the asset still ain’t worth much and now the club now owe me £10-15 million and no one is offering that or will do.
Should I add debt to keep everyone happy?
Will the land development realise enough profit to sort out stand, club debt and allow a sale and allow a sale that keeps all parties including the Trust happy ?
Who knows. The one thing I do know is that we go round and round, bicker, repeat, round and round, bicker, repeat…..
But none of it is our personal risk or money so ultimately it doesn’t matter what we think as it won’t make the slightest difference.

There's a dangerous parallel with the Cardozas. It seems as if their train of thought was they had put in £8 million with no obvious return so to skim off the loan for the East Stand would be just getting some of their money back. Is that too simplistic?

This is all whizzing over my head but there is one thing that Plato apparently said about his dislike for the invention of writing It was something like: "People hear much without instruction and they come to be regarded as wise without really being so. They become the kind of people that are hard to get along with"
I wonder what he would think to this message board?

Maidstone away in the 2nd round. Missed a great chance of getting to round 3 and over£100,000 in prize money
It's boring but i dont think we would have the same number as Barrow.

What about Alan Knill, surely a better fit until Wilder gets a job and takes him with him.
Brilliant, lets have Brady as manager, Knill as assistant and Wilder as assistant's assistant

Well that's a lot of what you got actually. You see Crerand was replaced by Petts so his first 10 games were the first ten games after Crerand was sacked. Petts was replaced by Keen so his first ten games were the first ten games after Petts was sacked. Keen was replaced by Walker, Walker was replaced by Dodgin and so on. Understand now?
Thank you. Apologies for sounding like Oliver but is there a way you can make the comparison more direct. If you could put the last 10 games on the left side with total points and then the next ten games with total points on the right side that would be great. The green column would be last 10 games with total points and the red column would be the following 10 games with total points. Thank you

That was a difficult one Larry, so many managers over the last 50 years don't meet the criteria, either they weren't sacked or they didn't reach the ten game mark. However I've done my best for you so make of it what you will. I've added Brady although he too hasn't been sacked and I've also added how many points managers got from their final 10 games. I'n afraid you've misread the request. It's not the first 10 game verses the last 10 games of a manager but the results for 10 games prior to sacking of a manager v 10 games after that sacking. The second part wont exist for Brady Thanks

What stats would you like? Bare in mind it's hard to state something that just isn't true.
Ok, results for 10 games prior to sacking of a manager v 10 afterwards

It will be a depressing list. Chris Wilder or I’m not interested.
Get Wilder in as assistant. It's no weirder than having Calderwood in that job.

I posted earlier in the week about how we've only been higher than we are now six times in our history. How does that fit into your theory?
It fits into my theory that you select the stats you place on here. Being seventh highest isn't exactly ecstatic or did I miss the bus parade?

Brady's body language also suggests he's not happy.
You're not kidding, he must sleep with his arms outstretched in exasperation

I have no effect on performances and results. You need to look somewhere else to blame.
It does seem to me that you pick the statistics to post on here to prove a point. I wont insult you with the Sir Charles Dilke quote but it does seem to appertain here.

Delete this thread ffs! Wouldn’t be surprised if JB reads this forum, he needs everyone behind him and the team. We’re in a s*** position so rally round! He certainly deserves some time.
This is a NTFC unofficial message board, not the Brady fan club. Ask Sam Hoskins and Reece Simpson what it's like.

Once there was a two goal cushion though we were utterly terrible. You have to wonder if we didn't fancy a replay at that point because from then on there was no urgency, tempo, no effort.
I dont think it would have made much difference if we did fancy a replay. Barrow would have seen to that.

Have the last two games exposed Brady’s lack of management and coaching ability?
it always felt to me as if Brady was the figurehead with Calderwood behind the scenes sorting out the detail. You generally saw the players in conversation with Calderwood at substitutions rather than Brady.

Don't forget though, Calderwood was sacked after failing at Cambridge in League 2, at least Brady hasn't got that on his CV.
Brady hasn't got coaching at Nottingham Forest, Newcastle, Hibernian, Birmingham, Brighton, Aston Villa and Blackpool on his cv.
