If i was a betting man, i would bet on he is gone by the end of the season, not by being sacked, but resigning. I feel sorry for him, i cant help but think he has been fed a load of bull.

You'd think he's come into this eyes open.

I agree with Dave though, everything we are doing seems like poverty behaviour. And maybe that's the way it has to be but that leads to the question does Clem need an investment partner?

…but…was bringing in Morris poverty behaviour? Signing Charlie Austin?

Maybe it’s just naivety but we should know managers like to bring at least an assistant with them (if not more) and this would have surely come up in Morris’ interview.

Almost feels like we pushed the boat out to get Morris spent all the available budget on him and then when’s he gone ‘I want the assistant you promised me’ we’ve panicked

Saves us paying him off if he resigns.

But then that leads to the standard Power era question, where’s the money gone? We’ve only paid £100k of historical debt this season so where has the rest of the money gone? Austin aside we’ve gone for a cheap as chips squad, yes we’ve paid a couple of nominal fees but we’ve more than covered that with player sales and with 9k crowds you’d think our income is pretty healthy.

If anything, to me, it looks like we have an owner who largely lets the team he has put in place run the show, and they are doing so.  Every so often it looks like Clem steps in and takes direct ownership of a decision - Austin, Morris.  They are stand out variations from everything else happening.

I do wonder if we have such niavety in those running the ship that nobody is able to manage up from time to time, or question whether they are on the right path.  Austin was so far removed from everyone else we signed that you'd think the person recruiting would scratch their head and wonder what the fuck just happened.  "Have I got this all wrong?"  "Am in misunderstanding the objectives I thought I had been set?"

"There are big developments going on behind the scenes at Swindon at the moment and I sense myself and the other journalists will be very busy in the coming weeks."

Love an elaboration on that, fucking hell.

Fuck me, what next?
