My concern is that, if JS is the sort of person I think her to be, this sort of insult will just harden her resolve

She's SISU's representative on the board isn't she?

Just because a team dominates possession doesn't mean they are a better team. We should know that. For our first goal the centre back tried to play Lameires rather than win the ball and Lameires squirmed away, won the ball, and threaded a perfect pass

Presumably because of our league position we are seen as a likely big team casualty.

Well that's the problem Almost all FCs are businesses but SISU, in trying to run a profitable business, have forgotten that the purpose of the business is to play football.

I agree withall of that but I was addressing your impliied criticism of the BBC for not forcing them
