On Monday, we had Chris Jelf come out and say kids would be free to go Saturday and that we should aim criticism at the board and not the players.
On Tuesday, Nick Higgs does a rather sheepish, nervy interview with not a shadow of his useful arrogance on show, in fact it was hard to not feel a bit sorry for the bloke. States he is is backing the manager and players (although that is debatable as he didn't get behind Clarke in the summer with failure to confirm he would be the boss for the season ahead and financially where we have missed out on several targets as we couldn't meet their wage demands.
Fast forward another couple of weeks, where all of a sudden Higgs confirms we are going to make 3 new signings (where was this money a couple of weeks ago?).
Make no mistake the board are panicking in my opinion and they fear the wrath of the crowd this Saturday. They know they have had to react accordingly hence the panic this week and trying to keep us fans on side.
Just hope it is not all too little too late...

How about a nice little "cheer the Gas on to a win" thread? |

A week of changes in attitudes and personelle that could well be seen as positive. Changes on the board welcomed by many, changes in the attitudes from the Chariman and confirmation that things with UWE are on the move and also that they are open to investment but that they are protecting it from bad intentioned investment. The releasing of further funds for more players.
Confirmation from DC about the state of play and steps to improve a shaky start. The return of kids go free. Its been a good week in many respects but of course it all depends on how you look at things...

Its been a good week in many respects but of course it all depends on how you look at things... I am a strong believer in actions speaking louder than words. I am not criticising yet, somethings I have just heard or seen said before by our board only to be let down. I hope this time is different. I do however feel a bit for Darrell who I believehas almost been hung out to dry. |

Don't forget about Higgs trying to flog the club via the BBC website  |
