If the owner does not want to commit any more money, most of which was wasted because of his poor strategy and leadership, then that’s fine .. but it clearly means it’s time for him to sell up and give a someone with fresh impetus a chance. I appreciate we’re not a charity, and he’s put vast sums in, but the failure to modernise and manage the club on the day to day mean it’s all self inflicted.
Time to go VT and your CEO
Weve got 6-8 million drop in income to find
That’s fair. At least that’s covered then, though you’d imagine still more high earners to go and lesser wages to come in. Out of interest, as I’m not massively close to it. How did Birmingham manage the transition so well and spend so heavily? Surely they had the same drop? What could the club copy, should they wish?

We know income can be improved by getting promoted/going on a cup run and that should be the focus. Not these luxuries.
Players get all their news from their phones, they don’t need Sky at The Vale. They’ve just been relegated after an embarrassing showing, make them fly Ryanair. Why would we reward failure? Sit next to fans on the plane and let them tell you about what the club means to them, how they used to go to games with their parents/grandparents who are no longer around. Why relegation hurts, and why it’s horrible to see a once proud club in this position.
Personally I support these decisions and I agree, should’ve happened years ago.
Well said .
