Indy 3,471 Posted May 7, 2016 If he''s resigned it won''t be because of some daft fans comments on Twitter, there''s more behind it than that.I''m with bor, I don''t think he''s resigned if he has after Bowkett then the board have to made accountable for this second half season performance on and off the pitch, this seasons been pretty poor, Bowkett gone replaced by Balls, what''s he done what impact has he made apart from the pies and pints tally?

Row D Seat 7 0 Posted May 7, 2016 He sent the tweet 40 mins ago. Hasn''t clarified anything and neither has the club. Guessing he wasn''t serious. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ca 1 Posted May 7, 2016 If he was going to resign it would be on the club''s official website , he would hardly announce it to a fan on twitter would he?. Looking at the abuse he''s had on twitter tonight it does make you ashamed to be a ncfc fan at times Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GJP 79 Posted May 7, 2016 Quite unprofessional of him if he''s joking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
norfolkngood 1,174 Posted May 7, 2016 or they are trying to talk him round after the day we have had its not right to mess around on twitter he is CEO not a tea lady ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JF 694 Posted May 7, 2016 Incredibly unprofessional but I think that''s all it is and nothing more than a poorly judged reply to some abuse Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary 2,035 Posted May 7, 2016 seems an odd thing for him to joke about given that come 9.45pm on Wednesday night there could be legitimate calls for this to happen?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Making Plans 957 Posted May 7, 2016 Rob Butler - According to David McNally''s official Twitter account he has resigned tonight. Just getting it confirmed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Making Plans 957 Posted May 7, 2016 And again - We''ve put in calls to the club but no word back yet. Will let you know as soon as any news Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thecanaryfan 0 Posted May 7, 2016 So effing what? Heads should role. There is no room for sentiment in football. We are down because we didn''t invest in the summer. We are down because 8 of the 11 players that started today started at Wembley. We are down because of his and the boards stupid prudence plan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hogesar 10,765 Posted May 7, 2016 I dont care if its unprofessional GJP.Im more concerned at our fan base having read some of the tweets. Shameful and disgusting doesnt even cover it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JF 694 Posted May 7, 2016 If, and it''s a big if he has resigned then after Bowketts untimely resignation and the joke appointment of the nephew it''s all looking like a fiasco again at boardroom level. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Herman 11,136 Posted May 7, 2016 [quote user="hogesar"]Really hope its not true. Our absolute twunt bucket fans who''ve been posting him abuse need to f off and support a top 4 club.[/quote] [Y]And to quote; "....he relegated Fulham and they haven''t returned since and now he''s relegated us twice get him out."I won''t give the name, but at least get a simple fact right before slagging them off.

Nuff Said 5,965 Posted May 7, 2016 Nothing on the club website. Hopefully this is McNally trying to do the decent thing, the board will refuse to accept it, and we can concentrate on next season. Complete disaster if not, worse than relegation IMHO Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GJP 79 Posted May 7, 2016 You don''t care if our Chief Exec acts unprofessionally?Hmm.It''s up to him to rise above it. He doesn''t stand for the players stirring things on Twitter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tetteys Jig 851 Posted May 7, 2016 I replied "you''re forgetting the 3 promotions..."McNally is far from the cause of our problems! We could do with several McNallys in that boardroom! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indy 3,471 Posted May 7, 2016 I still don''t except someone as hard nosed as McNally would resign because of a few nob heads on Twitter, you don''t walk away because of that you just shut down Twitter account.If he has gone it''s because of the results and board pressure.He''s the only good thing left on that board, but I know a few on here who would still defend Delia and co.I''d rather Bowkett and McNally were here with the rest gone!

Row D Seat 7 0 Posted May 7, 2016 Have it on good authority that Bowkett left due to a major breakdown in relationship with McNally so hardly think McNally would leave for same reason as Bowkett, as McNally was that reason. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

danielsroundabout 9 Posted May 7, 2016 If there is any substance and a vacancy is there to be filled, please don''t tell me that S & J will assign the role of recruitment officer to the Chairman. If so, he will doubtless have a long list of associates, all keen to get their snouts into one very deep and well-filled trough. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary 2,035 Posted May 7, 2016 "if " this is true, and I''ll say again, I dont think he''d joke about something that people could legitimately be calling for come Wednesday night, then the reality is that after 2 relegations in 3 seasons, either his and /or the clubs business model/strategy and even abilities are not compatible with being a Premier League football club and you can only assume that this would be an admission of this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
City 2nd 193 Posted May 7, 2016 I think personally overseeing two relegations (if that''s what it is to be) is not good for his cv, and he sees this as the right time to move on. Let''s face it, he has done his job to sort the club out financially, but many questions need answering, ie Bowkett, transfer dealings etc etc, and this is his answer to those questions being raised by many supporters and the media today.And of course AN is/was his recommendation......which doesn''t appear to have worked out!

hogesar 10,765 Posted May 7, 2016 In comparison to what our apparent supporters are writing on twitter, if Mcnally has given a sarcy response, no youre right, i dont care.Why do you?Does that tweet mean players wont sign for us now? Does it stop him running the day to day club functions? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FCC 94 Posted May 7, 2016 How soon we forget the bad times and demand continued success that is unaffordable. The club has to run as a business to ensure its survival at the heart of our community. Looks like we will go down with Villa and Newcastle - look at the gates and investment in those two clubs.Can''t believe all the negativity when a few years ago we were on the road to Hartlepool and Bristol Rovers.
