I think that we are comparing his lack of appearance against his predecessors of course we know how at least one of them couldn't get enough attention. I am not honestly sure if CEOs at other clubs regularly appear in interviews. I have been thinking and whilst Gould did a fantastic job here steadying our finances it's likely this kit mess up happened during his watch as these things have a long lead time. Wasn't he here previously as commercial manager or something when we had that horrendous TFG kit with that horrible badge? Which he was responsible for? I think Gould should completely stay away from kits in the future as its quite clear its not his strong point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what is going on that we are not aware of? What I've liked about Nige is how straight and upfront he has been with us. His openness has probably got our fans to buy into what he is doing here and its why most of us have been patient because we understood the parameters he was working within. The communication by Nige, Tins, Gould and Phil outlined where we want to get to and how we're going to get there. But obviously there are lots of other things going on at the club that we know very little about because of the lack of communication. Because of that lack of communication it gives little confidence that these things will get sorted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better to just put on ignore as got nothing to say. Nothing. Nada. Zilch. Pitiful. Done that a loooong time ago. It was good advice. Just a pain when the gas minibus driver is quoted as I seem to still see that. Edited July 31, 2023 by GreedyHarry Double post Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The CEO is invisible and seemingly unaware of certain things and is still getting settled when he's been here 7 months!? No. It's bollocks. The longer they batten down the hatches the worse the feeling gets. Agree. 7 months is a very long time in football. It’s actually as long as three Watford managers. If 7 months isn’t long enough to realise that branding needs resolving, that footballers don’t want to play in a shit shirt, that the supporters are crucial then you ain’t never going to get it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
