Even the greatest optimists among us will find it impossible to spin that shambolic result. What annoys me most is the fact that Cluj are a limited side. We missed enough chances in the second half to have won comfortably. As for the penalty! I'm not sure what went through Brown's head?

As the saying goes, a fish rots from the head down. A second rate managerial replacement that I just can't get behind. A Chief Executive who is obviously micro-managing him. A major shareholder who spends more on bog seats for his Caribbean hotel than he does on the Club. Forget the disco lights and hotels, our core business is playing football.

Our weaknesses are glaringly obvious so why are the problem positions not being addressed? We have spent a fair bit of money on players who the manager obviously doesn't trust. Who was responsible for scouting and signing Bolongoli and Jullien? Whoever it was must not be feeling too clever at the minute.

From where I am sitting the Board is under the kind of pressure that I don't remember seeing since the dark days. The frustrating thing is that we have won 8 titles in a row, a treble-treble and should be riding the crest of a wave. Instead we are moaning about mismanagement and second rate recruitment. It just shouldn't be this way.
