How I see it over the next few seasons

Over the past months I've made the odd comment but never reflected in depth as to what's gone on recently at our football club.
Vincent Tan, has in my eyes now done so much damage that it will take many years to repair even if this started today.
1. Club colours, won't change ever because I believe Tan is somebody of pride regardless of right or wrong and is surrounded by only "Yes men" that he employs.
2. Debt, majority of his money spent on the club is in "Loan notes" only, so if he left we would have a huge debt hanging over us that could see the club go into financial meltdown, the Langstone deal that took its toll on the club would be nothing like we have experienced before if this happened.
3.Managers, who ever comes in to replace Malky will experience what Malky had to put put up with because a Leopard doesn't change it's spots but even worse Tan will want to be able to have complete control as far as, signings, fees, wages, agents etc. Anything that has a £ involved, he will want to be involved.....Nightmare for moving forward.
4. Fans, everybody needs to pull together and support the players on the pitch, stop slagging off individuals, felt sorry for Andrew Taylor Thursday, fans cheering when he was substituted, he has for many games struggled against pace on the wings, but he doesn't pick himself to play !!!!
I've only missed one game Home or Away (Stoke City) and I've only really seen us play well in one game, controlling the game all over the pitch and that was at Fulham, the other games we've dug deep and hung on for a result. We are missing flair players that can run and challenge defences, these are the players we need in January.
Teams like Norwich, Palace etc that we should be beating have been made to look like Top 6 sides when we've played them because of the type of players we have in our squad.
Hopefully 3 points today as we desperately need them now before tough January fixtures come to give the players a lift and some confidence back.
Happy New Year, let's all be confident and believe that the players can do us proud in 2014 and that BLUE will come back and tradition will be restored.
Oh Ye, finally, and that Tan f***s off and we find a new owner with some dosh
