We take it down and we can go down with it. The problem is, Powell doesn't need our backing but the owners backing. The lack of support he has received has been tragic and blaming him for that is very shortsighted and ignorant IMO.
Amazing how half the people moaning about Powell tonight are users I have never seen on here before, and most certainly don't pop up making multiple threads about the same topic after we've won.
I think Powell needs to make an appointment with RD and tell him to back him or he will resign. He is out of contract in the summer anyway. We were happy when we were taken over as we thought that even a conservative and tight new owner would invest some funds! How wrong we may have been.
Well it always has been for me and Lookout. Not sure of the other moderators but suspect the same.
We can't influence how people think and post on our forum and wouldn't want to, but it was our way of making a stand a year or so ago when the small but repetitively vocal Powell Out brigade started upping their post count.
We wanted to show loyalty to the guy in charge of the football club we SUPPORT and who we think had done a bloody good job. It has said a hell of a lot in the time since that it has been a source of piss taking for some.
As said on other threads, I think the current situation is an absolute disaster, complete mess. I've been saying for months I think there is a very real chance we'll go down. In the grand scheme of things I blame Powell for about 5% of that, but that's just me.
I like to think I've a fairly decent track record of calling things, making a considered judgement. Perhaps i have been blinded by too much loyalty? Perhaps I have been skewed by desperately wanting the nastiness from some of the Powell Out brigade to be proved wrong? Perhaps I know less about 'the game' than I thought I do?
Who knows. We'll find out soon enough I'm sure as some form of change either now or in the summer is looking more likely by the day.
Of course 'the banner' doesn't represent everyone, but it's our approach and we make no apology to those that don't agree.

Not sure they have claimed he has 100% support from 100% of the fans.
If you don't feel that way then I'm sure Ittv would welcome you with open arms
Poll anyone?
Oh hang on...
