so is a model of loan players, sacking managers and their staff every year a better strategy then? 

I don't like loan players myself, but in fairness we only have 2 loan players at the moment - Etete who we couldn't afford to sign and Revan who is someone I see as a "proper" use of the loan system; bought in to cover for injuries.

The sacking managers part is a rather different issue. Personally, I think all the sackings have been justified. How long do you leave it?  Until we're relegated or until the crowds stop coming or both? It's a difficult balance to strike between the cost of paying them off or the potential cost of not sacking them. Of course, the answer is to hire the right manager in the first place, but if we had the magic formula for that to sell to other clubs we wouldn't need to worry about redevelopment to make us better off! How many managers have Man U got through since Fergie left?


Luck?  well it's a case of.. the harder you work, the luckier you become. Obviously player investment is a risk at every level. Personally I would be happy to see a massive investment into the youth / younger player set up and play them in games, even if it meant we would be not getting promoted immediately. I know that the player pathway thing (sorry forgot it's name) is a major headache in developing players at our level but something has to change if we are ever to be established in L1.

Wouldn't disagree, but this carries its own risk - as you say as a lower league club there's always the EPPP allows clubs higher up the pyramid to pilfer any prospects at a fraction of their worth.
