Yes you had a opportunity to go to the fans forum and attend Supporters Association meetings, but to campaign against the club and the manager is in my eyes wrong. There has been no malpractice and on the whole the club is well run. What we have is a bust up between the manager and a long serving player. Both may have said things in the heat of the moment and Lewie training at Charlton is wrong, but I'm not going to start blaming and campaigning against the club and the manager, especially when I don't know the full facts.
Again part of the content of the letter is
asking for more transparency on certain recent issues, so that rumours can be dismissed and the facts laid out to prevent further speculation. You cannot deny, that something just isn't right at the moment and the club need to know supporters are not happy about it.Personally I didn't attend the fans forum as I live near Walsall, but the low attendance is reflective of the poor communication and engagement by the club with fans. A single fan forum in 6 months is hardly keeping supporters on board. Low attendance also reflects the increasing lack of interest supporters have with the club.
This isn't just about Lewington, this is about everything wrong with the club since the Championship, and particularly about the club under Neilson which is worse off than under Robinson last season - which is pretty damning to say.
No offence here Filthy, I run a large logistics site, dealing with Millions of pounds a day, I have to make decisions that aren't always popular, not always correct according to some of my staff
but are normally based on a greater understanding of what is going on in the wider business and current economic climate, my staff aren't always happy- however there are often decisions I have to make that I then can't divulge the reason why.
Whilst it's not a great thing to do (keep people in the dark) sometimes it is necessary for the greater good or for commercial reasons, a football club will have those same decisions to make, and I for one accept that.
