Didn't Kirsika do some digging on Max. The guy is a seriously clued up businessman, at least that's the impression I got looking at his CV ( As are some of the people on the board it transpires if you look at Companies house). So do we stand by the owner and board entrusting Blake with £120 million a year turnover or Neil (and his vast business acumen) to tell Max where he's allegedly going wrong
..and also thinks he lives in Russia ffs.
Blakes an ex copper, so what (sorry dibs). It's not something you do if you want to be top of the popularity stakes - be honest now ! He went to Uni according to LinkedIn...what did he study, business studies, accounting, hairdressing ? who knows, perhaps it was one of the former. Notwithstanding after his stint 'coppering' he then started at the bottom of the CEO ladder at a small business along time ago- this club. When businesses grow do they keep, support and nurture their staff or sack them on a whim . I'd suggest the owner of that business is the proper person to make that decision not someone who's only qualification in life is the ability to log onto the internet and spout shi
te.
Many ex military go onto work in the City and earn vast amounts of money after commissions in the Army / Navy / RAF....likewise into politics or even policing. How different is that to getting a degree and going into Policing before settling on a different direction in life, it's a life experience after all.
So I'm not going with the 'ex copper' bulls
hit excuse thats raised by ND three times a week but only when results go against us. Sure he was in the right place at the right time but that's often how life works . There must be thousands of CEO's who came from absolutely nowhere to successfully work at a high level in business and Industry - or is there a CEO school - let's ask the Venkys at Blackburn.
We all knew this would happen. A few bad results and the same detractors come out with the same old excuses like a broken record.
The thing that pisses me off is the same folk trying to undermine the fabric of the club at every turn when things don't go their way. It's fuc
king tedious, its been going on since Mitchell was here and the title of this thread demonstrates it to a tee. A few months ago we were all on the pitch celebrating promotion now people are desperately trying to prove a point due to some weird obsession.
The owner, board and backroom staff are tried and tested, even if it doesn't meet the exacting standards of a few on here who've never stood in their shoes. Sure they're not immune to criticism and will continue to make mistakes. Then there's Parker, recruited to do a job and did it. Now he sounds like a right mixed up cookie, even more than usual so the board need to deal with it and tell him to wind his neck in and get on with it.
How do I feel. Well I woke up at 4am feeling sick in the stomach, that feeling when you've been on the lash and may or may not have said or done something the night before that you're bound to regret the next day.
This defeat will never go away but we go into Wednesday like it never happened.
