Lets think about this for a minute, Milan bought the club for peanuts and if sold today he would probably treble his money minimum.

Last seasons expectations were promotion at all costs, Gary Megson was falling short so rather than back him with funds Milan sacked him at the end of the transfer window.

Lets now Fast forward, aim for this season was stay up, Dave Jones is failing at the minute as we find ourselves in the bottom 3.

Milan is going to wait until the end of the transfer window and then sack Dave Jones, that way the manager will be blamed for being in the bottom 3, Milan doesn't spend anything and he gives the new manager the loan window to keep us up.

We all knew Milan was only here short term and to make a profit but this is taking the pish, at least give the manager a chance.

I don't know if im happy watching this rubbish while the owner sits rubbing his hands together, thinking more about his profit than the fanbase.

Anyway expect DJ to be sacked after the Charlton game, so we have no time to spend any of Milans profit.

Spot on mate im glad somebody else has noticed MM doing nowt to help DJ the club or the fans at present

Lifelong Owl

I have posting the same thing on here for weeks

Now there are more and more saying the same thing

Profit first
Profit second
Profit third

Milan Mandaric has only one interest in Wednesday PROFIT

He has no loyalty to us but has kidded us all

All of you who think he is our saviour are in for a huge disappointment and he will show his true colours

The sooner he sells us to someone who wants to take us for football reasons the better, and he has failed miserably appointing Jones who clearly has lost the plot

He is a poor manager with poor tactics who has had a poor performance and needs to go

MM is blue and white. But yes, in for the profit, just like any owner.

You all must work at hillsborough right? How do you know what's happening behind the scenes? People do talk rubbish

Mate we are not interested at what is happening behind
D the scenes

We are very interested in what's happening ON THE PITCH and the answer to that is simple

WE ARE IN DANGER OF BEING RELEGATED

Not in danger pal its a cert!

Now there's a thought which hadn't struck me. By the end of the window we'll still be in the bottom three so lets see if MM does sack DJ then. Sounds plausible.

After missing on several players already in the transfer Market I wonder what the plan is it would be good for fans sake if someone from the club can come out an let us know in which direct the club is goin as we are not just becoming confused but very worried.

MM talks to the fans about 3times a year and only when there is some good news - thats why hes even more quiet.
Aldridge only talks to the fans at the Fan forums when theres only a small number of ticketed people allowed.
DJ only repeats the same old rubbish to the fans, usually excuses or slagging off individual players or refs or the fans themselves, and he NEVER refers to the club as WE or US its always IT, YOU or THEY.
These are the people that some of our fans still try to defend, total mystery to me I'm afraid.

Sounds like the government talking to and like them talking I'm still confused

Name the players we have allegedly missed out on.Do you know for a fact that Dj was even interested in them, doubt it because people write on here claiming they know this and that when the only people who know who the management are after is the management.I just people would let DJ get on with managing the club he will prove all the knockers wrong.

Lets be honest the majority want DJ sacked as he hasn't got the team to perform but the problem is that we can't afford to as he will be due a severence package. So we will have to live with him a bit longer hopefully SG's influence since he came will be enough to lead us to safety.

Who is this 'majority'? The majority of fans I have spoken to don't want him sacked, they want him backed

That is because there is a 'majority' on this site that want him sacked and beleive that they are actually being proactive.

So only the moaners come on here, hardly realistic.

Every owls fan i know from my circle of mates, workmates and fb friends, wants him out.
i would say the majority do.Not everyone though admitedly.
But i wont call for his head at matches and lower morale of the team but anyone who still thinks hes doing a fine job needs help.

I would agree with every word of last post, more than 75% I would say want him out.
The problem with an absentee chairman like MM who is rarely in country let alone S6 wont get a sense of that.
He only gets to know what Aldridge tells him n I got a feeling him n DJ get on ok.

Which of the potential buyers would you prefer to take over the club?

09 Jan 2013 17:10:26
Ofc there it seems there is no one to take over atm to push us on to the next level, which is being a side challenging for top six.
Why ask such a question.
We are grateful to MM but if hes not going to invest more then obviously the best thing would be for him to sell.
To who we dont know but there will be someone willing to buy a struggling side with a good fanbase and potential for the premier league.

Because you are not happy with MM, so I wondered who you felt the best potential investor would be ?
Who do you think should have bought us instead of MM ?
Don't go kicking off again, it's a genuine question ?

We are absolutely nowhere near premiership level. I dream about it, as do you, but I am also in touch with reality. Are you ?
DJ out, MM out, play Rodri, sell Buxton, Ostrich fans aaaaarrrrgggggg.

If there is someone willing to step in to rescue a struggling side with a good fanbase then why didn't they step in before MM

Exactly mate. But try telling that to the experts.
