Over various threads some people are talking as if everything is down to PH (and Jan), so we need DH to ride back in on his white horse.
As much, as PH may have a demeanor that some don't like and has been a tad careless in what he has said, there's absolutely no way he should be getting the element of blame and vitriol he is, at least at this moment in time.
- PH was not involved whilst a number of off the pitch employees have been and gone.
- he did not recruit Jan, Winter or any of the existing incumbents, other than two who are brand new.
- he was not involved in the transfer windows where we signed Mbenza, Dhiakhaby, etc.
- DH approached PH; PH hasn't barged in with an aggressive takeover.
I am not suggesting he is an ideal owner, condoning the lack of any solid signings this summer and I certainly am not suggesting things are good; they aren't, rather I'm just baffled at how stupid a few folk are who carry on as if everything only went wrong when he came in.
As for stepping aside DH has already stated he's not got it in him now and nor was he able to find a backer other than the US consortium who wanted him to carry on running the club.
He does need to break the silence though and set realistic expectations.
Edit: when I thought Jan was going last night, I was relieved, so think I know where I stand on that.
