The club seems to lurch from one poor decision to another.
Who at the club has the balls to take charge and sort the shambles out.
What is the poor decision?
Amanda is working damn hard to sort it out. A problem not of the club's making
Refusing to give a proven international coach money to sign the players he wanted resulting in him turning down a contract.
Employing an unproven inexperienced lad to coach the team.
Not tearing up Aiye's contract when he lost his passport and making alternative arrangements. We could have signed Callum Phillips if rumours are true.
The problem at the club is the WE ARE TOO NICE!!!!
I have absolutely no doubt that everyone with a stake in the club, in particular the Directors and staff, along with players and the coach are ''working their you know what's off'' to get the club to a better place. I think maybe the issue is one of expectation and managing that expectation given the clubs relegation last season and the upheaval from that.
I read on here in a post a few months ago about how the ''town was buzzing'' and how the team / coming season was the ''talk of the pubs'' etc. etc. I took that with a pinch of salt as in all honesty as to me it was all getting a bit hysterical and over blown - Maybe the prospect of being in a lower league masked reality.
Haven were relegated. We have no right to assume that we will bounce right back up just because we are Haven. We have no right to win a game because people perceive we are too good for C1. We talk about strengthening and new players and people get all over excited and expect immediate results. Do people not realise other clubs strengthen similarly - if not take a look at results to date.
I do believe we will come good, I do not believe we will get promoted and I hope that expectation can be proportionate to who were are, where we are at and take account of whoever else is in this League with equal ambition. Failing that this Forum could be a pretty miserable place to be this season.
On a final note, I think the Dion issue is in all honesty (and possibly through no fault of the club) becoming a farce. Again I read posts on here saying it will all be sorted soon etc.: well its doesn't appear that way. I have no idea if the posts are 'official' club posts other than Amanda's. I suspect it may be better to await official news rather than raise hopes on what is essentially hearsay.
