We definitely need answers (to what's gone wrong) and to where we are going but let's be fair too. Where has he claimed that everything that has gone wrong has been someone else's fault? AB has called out the players and the culture but I am not aware of KN has been pointing fingers (happy to be corrected). As for those directors who have been "moved on" I would observe they were in post when a decision not to support Carlos was taken. Didn't they speak up then? Did they really have any influence? What was their role in running the 1st team. I am far from happy with this season, it is incredibly disappointing at best and woefully inept at worst but let us keep perspective and not be deluded into thinking those moved on were any better. We can't change the past but we need to learn from it. The immediate past is at Mr Nagle's door so let's hear what he says and does now. Rest assured if I think it is a load of vapourware baloney I'll be on here and call it out. I was saying other people have been overly credulous when they’ve said the 100 percent shareholder is a very clever and competent man, while also saying he can’t possibly be responsible for anything that’s gone wrong. (By the way, I’ve always found it weird when people think just because someone made loads of money in one industry, it means they’ll be really good in another one). He’s talked and promised a lot this season. And every time we’ve lurched from one crisis to another, often because of his interventions (criticising Warnock after the Norwich game, for instance). Now we’re down. By the way, I hear Nagle came into Sacramento promising a new stadium and MLS football ten years ago. They have neither. I’m all for giving the guy backing if he’s going to make the club successful. But ultimately, I support Huddersfield Town, not Kevin Nagle. He’ll be gone soon enough and there’ll be another one. That’s how it goes. Sir Amos Brook Hirst was one of the club’s most successful chairman, contributed a great deal to the Town, and became well respected in the wider world of football (F.A. Chairman for over a decade). No one remembers him today, but they remember the players and the managers and the goals. It’s all about football at the end of the day. The fact that we talk about owners so much nowadays — and that they want to be the centre of attention — tells you everything you need to know about the state of the game and its finances, with almost every club effectively insolvent — not exactly your usual business model. I hope the club is a success when Nagles here. But it hasn’t been so far. Can't argue with that. He needs to step up for sure. I don't know about the Sacremento promises but he did say in his first presser he was already looking at buying a house in the area. Since then he's visited 4 times (I think). I make the point because people listen to what they're told, when things don't happen people lose faith in those people who make the statements. He chose to take us on. His first season has been lousy and he can't expect people just to accept a "jam tomorrow" promise. I'm a reasonable balanced individual but I also want to see our club be the best it can be. Mr Nagle has taken that role so I will challenge him to deliver that.

I get the frustration but I'd personally prefer a sober, realistic assessment of what has happened and a thought through roadmap for the future. I think the soundbite social media communication doesn't match the gravity of our situation so receiving something more substantial is required. Get what you are saying, but we were 1/9 to be going down before the match yesterday. We have been favourites to go down for a fortnight. We should have a plan ready to go. In our two most successful recent seasons we signed players from Germany on frees for Wagner and Nicholls, who went on to be Championship keeper of the year, and Pearson for Carlos all in May. Now we’ve been relegated, our rivals are clearly zeroing in on players and we don’t appear to know who will be managing us or what style of football we will be playing. It just feels like we are going to stumble into another season with the same set of losers on the pitch. Your last sentence is exactly what we will do.

Bit of fun at KN's expense. Where's your respect for a man putting millions into our club? I'm light thanks but keep having a pop because htfcokay is loving it lol He's made mistake after mistake and relegated the club in his first season in charge. You've fallen for his bullshit hook line and sinker. The fact that you're surprised the fans are pissed off is fucking unbelievable! Surprised? I'm pissed off myself. I've consistently swam against the tide of negativity and almost drowned for it. It's not bullshit though and you will eat your cynical words

Isn't it right that the EFL wouldn't approve the deal? I have no idea. It's weird they were even in negotiations knowing it wouldn't be approved though? Something to do with them being unable to provide proof that they had funds to run it for three years? I'm sure someone could shed some light.

Captain lip service rolled into Yorkshire, the most straightforward, un-bullshit place in the world and wondered why his honey pouring exploits won't wash?
Man up, Kev!
Waiting a week just makes things worse.
You've had plenty to say all season, why the silence now? 🤔

You're right but I would say that this season has been a failure of planning (essentially) and we now need to hear we have a plan. I have taken the view that discussions have been had. AB calling out players and the culture, irrespective of if he stays, suggests that a conversation has been had (about what's required). It's that level of detail we need when we are communicated with. That communication must be detailed, realistic and credible. I will give all concerned the time to prepare that, but it must be soon after next Saturday (early Bank Holiday week). The debate will move on when we do hear.

ben1987 Really good points made there. I think Nagle does need to address what types of people he has been receiving advice from. The whole premise of that youtube series was about taking the opportunity to buy a club quickly which would make it hard to know everything. I took a job once that had a lot of issues. Immediately, I recognized how gargantuan the task was ahead of me. I went and talked to every single person I could find that held my role previously in my organization and similar organizations. Even those I had been told were vile/stupid (many were far from either as the organization had become rotten) provided me with some level of information that helped me out tremendously (and a few of them became long-term confidants). I'm not sure it hasn't happened but i've seen nothing to think that he has had those long sit downs with our last 2 chairmen, people like Sean Jarvis, etc. When I talk about seeing a good deal of hubris, this we have the right way to do it and it will work attitude is exactly what I am talking about. I don't care who you are, it is always best practice to go in to an endeavor with the mindset that you and your appointed people know nothing. Starting from the mindset of we know everything and just need to impart a "winning culture" is not the way to go about that position. Good post. Nagle has clearly under estimated the demands of the Championship. My main concern is that he will think a League One promotion is a walk in the park. He would be wise to talk to some of those people mentioned to get their perspective on how to get out of League One. It took Hoyle the best part of 4 seasons to get out of League One with reputedly one of the highest budgets. It also took big clubs such as Ipswich and Sunderland 4 seasons to get out of L1 Justasmithers - this is what I would like to see addressed in Nagle's comms next week, namely that this task will not be under estimated, and what lessons can be learned (say) from Hoyle and the experiences of the likes of Sunderland and Ipswich

Everybody knew we'd struggle for goals this season, Warnock wanted two more strikers, they bring in none, then wonder why we can't win games. The owner and his cronies have absolutely no idea how to run a football club, which is why we're now playing in league one. God help us next season!

We won’t go anywhere with Kev in charge, unfortunately all talk with no substance. The promised the earth and delivered little with Sacramento (as mentioned by Ben) rings all too true with how we find ourselves and just struggle to see us having any sort of substantial success whilst he still trusts in the likes of JE and MC,
Imagine he will only be here for another couple of years as he’s 70 this year and his travels across to England will become less and less of a priority I’d guess.

People are saying League 1 is shit, and to be fair it's not as competitive as the division we're about to leave, but there are still some decent sides in there. There's not a side competing in the playoffs that I'd be confident of us beating even before we lose our best players. Three of them will be playing us next season. Charlton have underachieved massively and now have someone who is damned good in the lower leagues (even if he is a dick) at the helm. I expect them to push for promotion next term. Wrexham have plenty backing. Lincoln are useful. Whoever takes the 3rd relegation spot will fancy themselves for a tilt at promotion. Rotherham are likely to be much better under the fat fraudster... Even finishing in the top 6 ain't going to be a walk in the park. We're not going to piss the league. We're going to need some real investment to be confident of top 6.

The hysterics on here is absolutely fucking bonkers. I want answers and I want them now waaa waaa.
There is another game left and if you read between the lines it appears some things will be said that need addressing. As much as the players have let us down we still need to be able to put out a team and have a professional duty to the fans who are travelling that it isn't just the Under 17s.
The club has teetered on the brink for god knows how long and if Hoyle was still in charge we would have been relegated aswell. He set the budget for this year and we were signing absolute nobody's under him.
The owner and his staff have made some poor decisions but to put everything down to him is madness.
The sheer ferocity in some of these posts it's like they want to drive the owner out. Great tactic to get us back in the big time. Are people that stupid they think we are going to get another billionaire buying us as a league 1 club in absolute crisis.
If you genuinely care about the club stop griping for one week and then listen to what needs to be said.

I actually want him to make a clear stmt of intentions then leave it for a while.....actions speak louder than words and all that. Yes hes made mistakes but lets be clear he hardly inherited sunshine and roses and if hes able and willing to sort it then lets back him to do so. Makes no sense to pour vitriol at him now - if nothing improves in another 12m then fair enough vent the spleen then. Sometimes goibg backwards to move forwards is a positive.....heres hoping eh!

If you think the chairman is going to come out and namedrop saleable assets as bad eggs etc next week I think you'll be disappointed. He's hardly been shy to speak to the fans before yesterday, has he? It was just an observation to be honest. I don't know whether Town fans seem to have a need to hear from the chairman more than other fans because of the Dean Hoyle years, and how he was generally open to Q&A's and interviews etc. Do Blackburn fans demand to hear from Venky's, do Norwich fans cry out for a sit down with Delia etc etc No, Kevin hasn't been shy of speaking before, and I'm sure we'll hear from him next week as has been pointed out by Dave. Don't see the urgency of needing soundbites from him before then. If I was wanting to hear from anyone at the club in any detail about what went wrong, what mistakes were made and to answer fans questions, it would probably be the person that has been running the club on day to day basis - Jake Edwards.

Some interesting points over last few pages.
For what it’s worth and with no disrespect to CD I have no interest in hearing a chummy video with handpicked questions from his mate.
I’d rather KN was answering questions from either the fans on something like HTTC or perhaps more likely we are Terriers.
Either that or frankly just stop talking because I’m sick of words words words being followed up with no actions whatsoever. The time for talking is over.
Telling the fans we are going to do this that and the other, be in premier league in 3 years, going to consistently challenge Leeds - it’s like Brian Potter on his stairlift whispering sweet nothings to his girlfriend.

Makes perfect sense to me to wait until the season is done. I'd have been surprised if anything was said before that.
What's certain is that they need a plan quickly and it needs to be a very good plan. Unfortunately I've got zero faith in the current staff to come up with one.
Relegation and rebuild is far more difficulty than stabilising in the championship and we've seen how they did with that.
It needs new blood imo, someone experienced that knows the leagues and is able to plan accordingly. I don't see anyone on the current staff that fits the bill.

There has been actions though? He’s changed managers and spent relatively heavily by our standards. From everything I’ve seen and heard from him the fact it hasn’t worked out will be hurting him badly. Rome wasn’t built in a day, I don’t see how braying for blood and immediate penitence from the owner helps us move forward. So many desperate “told you so’s” on here, nothing good happens without significant risk, it’s gone wrong this time, but they’ll learn, give him some time.

FWIW; I actually like Kev, and I do think he’s going to do good things for the club. I just think he’s been very unlucky really.
I don’t think for a second he’s only here as a case of “ooh look at me I own a football club” and I believe he’s more than willing to invest and will.
He tried to invest in the summer and Colin rejected a lot of players. Then in January (always a tough window anyway) he spent millions. Healey genuinely could be really good. Balker has the potential to be the best defender in the championship let alone league one but a crock. And can’t really judge Bojan yet I don’t think. Matos only a loan but been very hit and miss, mostly miss.
Then it starts coming out that half the squad are bellends who leave early etc. André saying he’s seen things here in 2 1/2 months that he’s never experienced in 30 years of management. What that alludes to we don’t know but doesn’t sound good.
Ending with relegation was also worst case scenario but if we can shift our all the deadwood and out of contracts and invest wisely….maybe listen to the fans if ya reading Kev as there’s a lot of good players available. Spend the money wisely, and bring in quality, good characters and we’ll have a really good push next year to get straight back up!
UTT! Blue and White through the good and shite!

Some interesting points over last few pages. For what it’s worth and with no disrespect to CD I have no interest in hearing a chummy video with handpicked questions from his mate. I’d rather KN was answering questions from either the fans on something like HTTC or perhaps more likely we are Terriers. Either that or frankly just stop talking because I’m sick of words words words being followed up with no actions whatsoever. The time for talking is over. Telling the fans we are going to do this that and the other, be in premier league in 3 years, going to consistently challenge Leeds - it’s like Brian Potter on his stairlift whispering sweet nothings to his girlfriend. There has been actions though? He’s changed managers and spent relatively heavily by our standards. From everything I’ve seen and heard from him the fact it hasn’t worked out will be hurting him badly. Rome wasn’t built in a day, I don’t see how braying for blood and immediate penitence from the owner helps us move forward. So many desperate “told you so’s” on here, nothing good happens without significant risk, it’s gone wrong this time, but they’ll learn, give him some time. I said I’m not interested in his mate interviewing him and fed up of all the constant waffle. If you enjoy the video diaries then knock yourself out pal, I’m sure there will be another one in a few days. The action you refer to included sacking one manager in September because they fell out and sacking the second one after he’d already hit the iceberg. Not to forget throwing money at injured players. 👍

The only reason that there are so many “told you so’s” on here is because there are f00cking loads of people who told them so. They were told the squad was horrendous in the summer, they were told DM was wrong man and they were told that they kept DM too long. But the fans doing that telling were ignored and treat as entitled.
