I've heard people say that the current board is the best they've dealt with, the club even released a statement declaring "Since christmas with some sensible changes made regarding the introduction of arguably the right people in the right posts - something which was not always the case - we've have seen improvement"
Well - where exactly?
Back in February we got a transfer embargo which was "normal business practice" and would be sorted in a couple of weeks according to our Tim. In the fans forum TF and Waggot stressed that this needed to be lifted by the end of May and still as yet still no sign of it.
A "bounce back budget" was mentioned when we got relegated and I quote "Rest assured that we will be driven in all our efforts over the next few weeks to ensure we have a stable, fit for purpose platform so we have the best chance of making a robust bid of an immediate return to the championship.
I think we can forget about a couple of weeks, On the eve of 6 months into the year I'm kind of thinking is Tim Fisher the boards equivalent to Freddie Eastward - overweight, overpaid and has achieved bugger all for the club. Oh we do attract em!

Ive met Tim Fisher and spoke to him a few times. Most recently was 2 weeks ago. I know it may disappoint many on here, but I genuinely thought he was a decent bloke. Honest, humble, not too far removed from Paul Fletcher - who at least tried to make things happen.

I liked fisher, from what he said he seems to really want the club to do well. He's also receptive to talking to fans.

I too think he is personable & can talk a lot of sense, in different circumstances I reckon he'd be good for the club, but Joy is pulling the strings & she is a hard negotiator, so it doesn't matter what Tim thinks or intends, he has to wait for her say so.

Mutton just has to keep his nerve, SISU are the ones standing to lose, I don't see them holding any trump cards.
The best they've got is that the Higgs charity have all their capital tied up in the Arena & want to free it up for other purposes.
But I believe the council has the golden share, so they can veto any deal they care to make.

I can't make this Fisher out either, talks the tough guy, then invites the "opposition", Hoffman and Elliott back to the fold in some sort of capacity, just after coincidently the Chinese investor is revealed. I sometimes get the fee;ing Fisher is running with the hare and hunting with the hounds. You know it wouldn't surprise me that our Mr Fisher is still in position when sisu have gone.
