Sadly, yes. Following our short spell in the Corrupt League we’ve gone all entitled and tbh I often wonder whether we’re now any better than Massive or Stoke fans.

You actually believe that. He has been at KN’s side from the very beginning going by the UTT videos yet he has no input what so ever ? You don’t think that maybe just maybe we are told that so he can be active on here for the club but remain “just a fan” so he is accepted, naivety. Someone's a bit paranoid. He has zero input to anything club related. Certainly not paranoid I have far better things to occupy my mind, just realistic. As pointed out on this thread he has openly stated he is a HTAFC advisor, therefore connected and has more than zero input. An advisor would not be an advisor if they input nothing or is that too hard a concept for you to comprehend. |

None of us wanted or expected the club to spend millions every summer, just the right amount to be able to compete in the Championship. I’d be quite happy to be similar to PNE, a stable Championship club that usually gets enough points on the board to be safe by the end of February with the odd tilt at the play-offs. Not the basket case of a club we currently have with terrible decision makers, managers with little to no clue and players who can’t be arsed and not up for the fight. |

You don’t think that maybe just maybe we are told that so he can be active on here for the club but remain “just a fan” so he is accepted, naivety. How is that naive? He’s not listed ANYWHERE as an official at the club He MAY have been encouraged by KN to post positive stuff but he’s no employee of the club Edit: when I say MAY I mean probably has, but that doesn’t mean he’s some kind of puppet, I think it’s quite disrespectful to imply as such personally, especially as in some posts he has addressed some negative stuff He calls himself a HTAFC advisor openly on twitter? If you are an advisor to a business (which a football club is) you have some form of input! On top of being an advisor he has been at KN’s side from the negotiations to buy the club, the January window and right up until now. Not long back he was asking for ideas on how to fill the stadium… no input? If you ignore all that, the simple fact he is on here as a go between means he communicates with KN and therefore has influence intentionally or not. So you genuinely believe that somebody who calls themself a club advisor as well as being a close presence at all stages of the KN era so far has no input/influence what so ever? I go back to my original point. Somebody who IS quite clearly connected to the club (officially or not) should have better things to do right now or at least the sense to not try and deflect things by picking an argument with a poster over a daft comment he since explained. |

I'm not on Twatter so didn't know that. Every day's a school day, I stand corrected. Still wasn't naivety though  |

Not sure about the Preston analogy willo When did pne last have 2 championship playoff finals and 2 seasons in the Premier league? Plus they have had plenty of time in league one |

I would suggest the questioning came from a place of feeling frustration, something we are all feeling right now. |

Town fans have been pretty laid back considering the appalling decision making over the last few years. The only thing left we have to show for the visit to the PL is the fans.
Yes some were just here for the ride, but a lot stayed particularly families.
We're down let's face it & once confirmed we need to be right on it.
A clear statement of intent, promises,quick appointments & recruitment from the Owner. Clear the decks has best we can.
Cartwright - There's something in the night about him, Replace?
AB - I'd stick with him we need some stability. But with his family not been here permanently is this a problem?
Players - Complete overhaul all out of contract let go. Sell whoever for best price. And whatever happened to the good old transfer list. I think we can think of a few that need to go on that.
And a gesture of freezing the SC prices with stick with us we'll entertain you if you can support us.
Although if there's a repeat of last Saturday I'm sure the Police will be busy. Unless we all leave early in silence & go for a drink. Class!

I think it’s brilliant that someone who is close to the owner has chosen to use DATM as a means to connect with the fan base and learn more about what we are all feeling and about the club. I cant think that many clubs forums have this sort of connection. |

I don’t think for one moment wanting the bare minimum and voicing your opinion when you don’t get that is toxic, we’ve literally been battling relegation every single year we have been in this division bar 2 play off seasons..we played the cheat code in Warnock last season a d got out of jail free, what do we do? We start the season with Ward and Hudlin as our only two strikers..the lack of any thinking in these decisions are staggering…it’s not even under one man it’s THREE, we’ve had Hoyle who in the end was only concerned about money, Phil who had no money but showed Witt money he could make good decisions now Kev who’s got money but not the sense to have the right men around him to help 😅 the circus is still in full flow.

What were all these good decisions that Hodgkinson made?
It was amateur hour under his tenure.
Granted, he sacked Cowley and appointed the club's greatest ever manager, but apart from that one decision, it was an absolute joke.
The whole Danny Simpson fiasco seems to have been forgotten, the Paddy Power stunt, Hodgkinson talking absolute bollocks every time he was interviewed, sat on the team photo in his training gear, and instances of him interfering in football matters.
Need I go on?

That Paddy Power stunt...oh my god.
The thought of it still make me shudder.
To see the greatest player that I've ever seen play for us in Aaron Mooy have to wear that nonsense.
Just awful.
Not to mention the Man.City claim and subsequent retraction...
