    Oldfellow got a reaction from BuddieinEK in OPEN LETTER TO THE BOARD AND ANYONE ELSE   
    For the first few years at the new ground we gave them half the west stand. That seemed to work. To return to that we would need to rehouse the super fans / wee Ned's in  W7. Why not ? 
    There is a hysteria about all this that makes no sense. Take as much money from the OF that we can because we certainly cannot fill all the seats . Yes the OF are low life but we are stuck with them so screw them for as much as we can. I wish we could fill all the seats but we can't and probably never will . Principles don't provide money to improve the squad. Get real.

    But JG didn't stay to the end of the season so we are where  we are. From what I can see , at this point in time , there isn't a great choice and at least two who we fancied aren't interested in joining us  . We are probably getting as good as we can at the present time. He is experienced but still young . We could have done much worse

    The options seem so bad that I'm now hoping no one in and no one out as the best position

    I see our CEO appears to be leading the charge with RDC to get a full stadium. I have therefore  assumed that we are more likely to get fewer fans than more given given the level of confidence I have in his ability. Ali de Foy comes close second in my lack of confidence table. Maybe they are all super competent and I'm talking rubbish which is very possible but I'll take some persuading

    Clearly something has gone very wrong with the process. That added to the shirt sponsorship fiasco and the lack of information coming out of the club worries me. Something is not right. I don't know why but I just feel it. Hope I'm proven wrong very soon

    By losing in two semis and not getting into the top six we have missed out on the big European money which will make st.johnstone and Livingston even stronger. We have well and truly blown it. Although scant consolation seventh place would get us some cash but Motherwell are better placed than us to get that . If I sound pissed off I really am

    If you look why  the Cheltenham fans thought so highly of JDH the reason is he had a solid defensive midfielder(and captain) in Ben Tozer no doubt encouraging him. JDH is being asked to play in that position, which I'd say hasn't done much of before. Not really rocket science why he may be off the pace at times.

    Apart from Covid a lot of the breaks went our way this season eg lots of penalties, opposition players sent off, Danny Rogers giving us a goal. There weren't many games we won where we were clearly better . 
    We have the makings of good side but we are not top six quality yet. Close season signings will be crucial . No individual games spring to mind that could have changed things . Probably the February draws killed us.

    Best Post ave read in years,100% correct sir,also a have been saying for years we need a striker coach,as how the hell can Goodwin sharp McManus langfield Webster improve me as a striker,and going by Goodwin signings Erwin quauner junior he obviously doesn't no what a striker is either,he should man up and admit his blame for absolutely stinkin performance at hampden and tactically inept also and he goes again with a negative attitude, we are covering wallpaper over the holes if we got top 6th because they be thinking he a genius and he far from it,am sick of his anti football and am sick of his bullshit after match interviews, you blew it again Goodwin
