Good post that man

And everything will fall into place when Falmer is finished, and hopefully this club will be able to run without losing any money at all.

He is the epitome of a scapegoat. If Adams HAD been a big success, we wouldn't all be on here making thread after thread praising Dick Knight, would we?

What a load of old bollocks. Please stop making threads either pro/con Dick Knight, we have enough thank you.

 

[Don Quixote]

stop looknig to the past, yes Dick Knight saved us but he's past his sell by date now

 

[seagulls4ever]

I don't really have a strong opinion one way or the other, but simply saying "he saved us in the past, we would not have had the glory days without Knight" really is a weak argument. The past is the past!

If we get relegated this season, and start next season in League 2 loosing games, and Adams is still in charge, are you going to be saying "we must not sack Adams, look what he did for us in the past"?

Choosing to build the stadium at Falmer?

Look forward, not back.

Your avatar is revolting.

Think about how you are spending this Saturday afternoon, multiply it by 52 times a year, and that is the answer.

 

[Guy Fawkes]

not giving talyor the funds

so your idea of bad decisions are that he and the rest of the board have run the club in a sensible manner which, despite the club making a LOSS every season, it has still been able to be fairly competitive in the league, with several promotions etc.

you mean How dare they run it in such a way that has actually kept the club still in business, why haven't they just blown all the money in a couple of seasons and folded, why bother with trying to secure a ground, or getting it built - morons like you view things as too short term, morons like you couldn't see a good thing if it jumped up and slapped you in the face, instead you'd rather that fantasy takes over and miraculous money is produced from thin air and imaginery investors that are queing up to pump money in, and it's only Dick Knight that s stoppong it - ffs, get real,

whatever this club does between now and Falmer will never be good enough for idiots like you will it, fans were calling for Wilkins to go, fans were asking for Mickey to come back, yet when this did happen they didn't let him settle or mould his team, but instead expected immediate results, and with morons abusing our own players if they make one mistake, saying they should never play again, is it really a surprise we are struggling?

Sacking Adams would only achieve a temporary stop gap of the moans and whinging, it would solve NOTHING, because some of our fans have become so wound up over the years battling against the previous board, or for the new ground, that they feel that the club now owes them more than it can deliver while at Withdean

Other than all of the above which on their own are bad enough:

Waiting far too long to put in extra seats at the Withdean and timing it so badly so that having had season after season of sell out crowds that we actually suffer a reduced attendance in the season they get put in.

Failing to put a roof (even temporary) over the South Stand, costing the clubs significantly in lost revenue.

Failing to support all managers with the exception of Adams and Coppell

Failing to understand the modern football world and as a result allow good players to leave and others to not be persuaded to join.

Appointing Ken Brown, a failure at Millwall, and a complete PR nightmare

The ticket office, selling tickets, ticket policy etc etc etc. List too long here to go into detail!!!

Appearing when there is good news, disappearing when there is bad news.

we had to get planning permission for new stands so it was always gonna take ages.

also the roof would NEVER happen so hardly DKs fault!
