* Bryan Richardson takes us £50m into debt "having a punt", replaces Whelan, Mcallister & Keane with Craig Bellamy
* Relegation and financial meltdown, Robinson gets shot of him but won't take advantage of the then-lax administration rules so we can't bounce back like Leicester, Ipswich et al did.
* McGinnity comes in as Robinsons main man and decides to plough ahead and build the Arena despite relegation (even though we had the option to buy HR back)
* Huge debts which we never really recover from are built up and when we realise we're totally fucked and have come too far, we have to take a loan from the council, ACL is born and our relegation is sealed as we pay £30k per week in rent and get nothing from matchday revenues
* Paul Fletcher tries & fails to restore the club to an even footing via the "Manhattan group"
* Elliot brings SISU in... and now here we are
SISU aren't the devil incarnate, they are just the final (apparently totally incompetent) straw in a 12 year long journey to oblivion, which as I see it was kicked off by Bryan Richardson, strongly aided & abetted by Mr Robinson.
Fuck off SISU, but Richardson- fuck you x10 with your fedora and your "Phoenix League" and your retractable pitch- as far as I'm concerned you're the real original cause of all this, not SISU, they're just the latest mugs to try and fail to repair the damage caused in the early 2000s
