Today’s match day squad included over £30m of players brought in by Warnock. He must take the major share of the blame for this season’s performances. His attempt to avoid responsibility by legging it 3 months into the season fooled no-one (OK, maybe some).

The board cannot shirk responsibility either. There is a spectacular lack of football expertise at the top of the club. The idea of VT, Dalman and Ken posing as talent spotters on the transfer committee is beyond absurd.

Until the board acknowledge they’re out of their depth and get in serious football people who know what they’re doing then the club will continue to make it up as it goes along.
