Is there any alternative to SISU or Hoffman as both appear to have reached an impasse? I think there is just too much bad blood between both sides for anything to happen now. If we can't find an alternative I fear SISU are either going nowhere or will have us liquidated, one or the other.

Fair point. Perhaps worth keeping for another season but he should certainly not be a first choice starter in my opinion. Perhaps worth having coming off the bench but if we are going into next season with a midfield of Thomas, Bigirimana, Deegan and Baker/Bell we will struggle in League 1 as...

I would keep if possible - Murphy, Dunn, Christie, Clarke, Hussey, Wood,McSheffrey, McDonald, Baker, Platt, Thomas, Bigirimana Sell/Let go - Cameron, Deegan, Bell, Jeffers, ROD, McPake Will be sold/will leave - Clingan, Cranie, Keogh, Fat Freddie, Norwood, Nimely Buy - New Right back, Two...

All of this is alas academic with SISU. If they still own the club then we won't be bringing many, if any, players in.

Not sure Thorn will stay next season if SISU refuse to back him which all previous evidence suggests that they won't. I can see him resigning in protest in pre-season after SISU's promises have once again been broken.

Agreed. But realistically does anyone seriously expect SISU to provide any serious investment for new players? It will be kids, maybe League 2/Non-League players who are free transfers and maybe the odd decent loan player.

I think our plight is now getting widely documented in the national football community and as black as today has been it will have helped in that regard. However the question is does this coverage get us any closer to the SISU parasites leaving our beloved club. I'm not sure it does, they...

All subjective but personally I don't rate him.

Not the most constructive of opinions even in these desperate times, Glen. I suppose if the balloon went up, then we could reform at a similar level to Leamington Town or the like. It would be awful but we might be able to claw our way back to League status in a few years like AFC Wimbledon...

I wonder where liquidation gets you?:thinking about:

I like Southampton. Good luck to them. They deserved their promotion.

If we keep the decent League One players and add 5/6 players of that calibre we may finish in the top half next season. If we sell these sort of players and don't add sufficiently I can only see another relegation. Championship players and will probably be sold or leave: Clingan Cranie...

If that is the future god help us. The kids tried hard and it is not their fault nor is it Thorn's for having to play them. With SISU at the helm we are destined to struggle for eternity. The only hope is for a change of ownership. No change, no chance and we will struggle to survive next...

Is Bryan Richardson. He was the one who gambled with our finances, who "took a punt" and spectacularly lost. Who then spearheaded the move to the Ricoh when we were £60m in debt and decided on the ridiculous idea of moving stadia and not owning a single brick of the new ground. Yes, SISU are...

What makes you say that? This is a man who marked Dennis Bergkamp and Gianfranco Zola out of games.

Agree with the first part of this post. An enquiry is overdue however I don't think there is anything wrong with private owners in principle however it is a few bad apples who have infected the sport. Unfortunately one of the most rotten of these apples are SISU. Also I don't believe fans'...

I'd have him back as a player never mind as a coach:p Shaw is a Sky Blue legend in my eyes.

Damian Collins is a member of the Culture, Media and Sport Select Committee. He isn't a Minister (the Minister for Sport is Hugh Robertson). Robertson is rather pre-occupied at the moment with some event that is taking place in London in about three months time so perhaps SISU are aiming to time...

I'm not sure SISU know themselves so how we are supposed to guess their intentions I don't know.

Andy Thorn, Andy Thorn, Andy, Andy Thorn. He's got no hair and we don't care, Andy, Andy Thorn!
