Oh dear Dancing, your responses to Pooch's positive outlook are genuinely depressing, more so because they are in line with my own feelings about the club at this moment. I always hope being so far away I'm getting the wrong end of every stick, but at the moment every available stick seems to be being applied to those who least deserve it - loyal fans.
Pooch is a good bloke, who I like a lot, but I'm baffled by his re-writing of recent Caldwell history. Jeff Stelling just saw off Dave Jones from Hartlepool on a record of 13 points from 17 games - 12 from 18 and the machinations behind the scenes at Chesterfield suggest Jeff should be approached to pen us an impassioned plea too. I don't want us to be a sacking club, but offered the choice of The Hump and Evatt, OR GC and Pickle I don't think many fans would hesitate. BUT I fear The Hump and Evatt may be finding out they are deadwood in a few day's time.
Why would youngsters be brought into the fold of the first team every week and the one who has been most successful, without whom our junior sides have hardly been able to score for two seasons, can't make the bench of a team that has scored only 13 goals in 18 games? Are we selling Ricky German, sacking him, how does he improve without playing? Is Dan Jones his mentor? Come on this is getting ridiculous.
Ched Evans' proposed transfer - no mention of it or him on our website. It's on the Beeb FFS! What are fans supposed to make of that level of communication? How long has this been brewing? The length of his ever-lasting injury? Don't crock him, he's worth £500K. How can you expect fans to tip up money for season tickets when a veil of secrecy is cast over the whole club. TRUST US? Hughie Green was more genuinely sincere.
The trouble with credibility is once it has gone that's the end of it. The gradual demise of the club since our abject failure even to contest the play-offs has slowly exposed the Emperor's new clothes. DA's credibility is running on empty despite the good times he's also given us. We don't trust him, so we can't trust the Rumpboard either, or the man they appointed as manager when he tries to paint the green shoots of victory on to another defeat.
I think we are on our way out of the league, if not existence.
