Moxey speaks to NCFC tv

Recommended Posts

Jez seems to think that January will rectify most things.

1) who, decent, will come here in our position?

2) who will pay decent sums for players we want rid of and who haven''t performed?

We have a fascinating month ahead!

An inspirational speech from one of the club''s leaders. It will be interesting whether Neil will be able to galvanise the club for a promotion bid from league one next season or, alternatively, if he follows Blackpool''s approach to league two. Whatever, our victory at Brentford on Saturday may well be the last of the season.

[quote user="lake district canary"]Nothing in there that is remarkable or contentious.  The questions asked were fair and the answers predictable.  All to play for.

It was woeful, he said nothing.

They will look to ship some players out in the window, following which they will look to get some in. There are only a few players I would be disappointed to see leave currently, I am more concerned about who we get in, and the chances of convincing someone who can actual make a difference to us in this turmoil is pretty low.

There is always hope, but this feels like waiting for the rope to break!!!

I said a couple of days ago that someone at the club needed to come out and say something... it''s a skilled PR machine that allows Moxey to come out and say something while simultaneously saying nothing at all. Can''t imagine anyone who watched that was in any way appeased by it.The best that can come out of this is a downscaling of the wage bill, culling some of the 30-plus brigade and getting as much money as we can for Brady, Klose and (if we''re lucky) Naismith, then firing Neil and bringing in a manager who can do what Lambert did and get young, hungry and upwardly mobile professionals fighting together and becoming greater than the sum of their parts. However, with Moxey being the only one on the board with real knowledge of the game, I don''t hold out too much hope of that happening - especially when he''d have to sell any potential appointment to Delia and Michael.There are an awful lot of ifs and buts to plough through before you reach a potentially satisfying outcome. Depressing times.

[quote user="TIL 1010"][quote user="JF"]Where are the McNally outers now? Take a bow, you played a blinder[/quote]Are you saying the fans got rid of McNally ? Really because i for one thought it was more to do with his out of hours antics. Also remember the board accepted his resignation without a second thought which must tell you something surely ?[/quote]

When I questioned the resignation payment of £1.35 million to McNally at the AGM, a former director later commented that he would happily have given him another million pounds just to get rid of him!

Funny how the extreme happy clappers are not commenting[/quote]

Not sure what they''d be saying. Folk were up in arms that they weren''t being kept informed. Moxey does an interview, position unchanged (not league position, obviously!) and the same people are up in arms because the provided information didn''t provide a pound of flesh.

Ricardo often talks of football being cyclical, the same is true of a chunk of fans. We''ve been here before so many times.

The manager becomes "clueless", the board become "well meaning amateurs", the club becomes "Delia''s Doll''s House", Delia becomes an omnipotent despot, employees become "puppets", the training ground becomes "Costa Del Colney".

It''s not that those purporting that to be the case disappeared, they just grudgingly accepted "good" bits, probably put it down to luck or a third party influence or "Delia finally taking a back seat", then when it turns to shat, it''s because her power crazed personality burst to the fore once again and she surrounds herself with "yes" men.

And so it continues.

For whatever reason, Delia has never won over her fellow supporters, throughout her time she has been accused of pocketing cash, telling lies about the amount of money she put in, of being an Ipswich fan and here we go again with the notion that she, despite the wealth of evidence to the contrary, doesn''t have the clubs best interests as her main priority but rather a desperation to keep the club in "Smith hands".

It''s the same folk trotting this crud out now that were doing it the last time we were crappy and the time before that. Delia becomes "the cook" and with her husband they become "The Stowmarket Two".

Full circle.

Now we have Crafty claiming he was right all along - his hatred never wavered for her but he wasn''t shouting quite so loud when we were in the Prem or winning at Wembley or returning to a sound financial footing. At least he has the honesty to remain consistent though.

Others, can''t wait to get the knives back out and have probably spent the last few years permanently sharpening them.

They try to hide their unfathomable hatred behind translucent veils of merely being progressive thinkers and citing the necessity for billions to compete "where we belong". These statements are usually qualified with a caveat of it not being "just anyone, of course, we''d want a good one" - yet this is exactly where Delia is positioned. "Yeah, but that interview..."

Ugh. The hypocrisy of taking a quote from a newspaper at face value and as irrefutable evidence that "they''ll never sell" while at the same time dismissing their claims of wanting to do their very best for the club as lies to conceal her power hungry egotistical conversion of the club into some kind of Smith United is laughable. And, if people were honest and took a step back, they''d be able to see just how ludicrous it is.

But we''re crap. Someone must be to blame and this will continue until the pound of flesh is wrapped up in an EDP.

I reckon she must value the club far more than she does her self-respect and reputation. Despite all the rubbish levelled at her she stays, taking the abuse, chucking more

Money at it when it was needed instead of just thinking, ungrateful bustards and cashing in her chips as soon as we hit the Prem.

Her skin must be as thick as some of our fans.

If he was interested in anwering questions the fans really want to hear he wouldn''t have snubbed the edp yesterday. That was set up in house and somehow made it onto youtube without anyone realising what a disaster it was

The out-o-meter might have swung back to 6 or so, but the anger at the board will increase significantly

I posted yesterday morning any comment was a lose lose outcome. Weak pandering to an instant media self fuelling hysterical mob gets the outcome such a poor choice deserved.

Great trolling interview though, Morty, are you their new pr advisor?

He presided over the strategy for two failed transfer windows (particularly the second, which left us without a top-class central defender) that were significant contributions to our two relegations from the Premier League.

And got us from league 1, the lowest the club had been for 50 years to the PL in 2 seasons, saving the club from a financial black hole....

That was my original post Herman that they are referring to. As I said in it, where are all the McNally outers now!

Yes fancy fans taking the direct quote "we''ll never sell, we don''t even listen to offers" (sic) as evidence that they won''t sell. Despite a hasty but clumsy attempt to portray they were misquoted the cat was let out the bag there I''m afraid.

Despite all that though it''s not the refusal to sell that is at the heart of all this but rather, for the third time in their reign, taking far,far too long to take action to halt a very obvious decline because of some misguided sense of loyalty to a failing manager and this time they are genuinely risking the future success of the club by digging their heels in.

Bravo Duncan, Lupo 👍

In the law of football language, this is the dreaded Board Vote of Confidence.

The circumstances, editing, tone, words are irrelevant. The fact that there is an interview at all - with the word ''concerned'' repeated 4 or 5 times - is a statement that Neil is on notice.

The Board quite rightly don''t wish to be seen to push the Manager over the cliff. There is no need when he is right in the edge and unable to retain his own balance.

It is not the time to allow critical journos keen to create a winning front page ahead of social media to frame events.

Any interview means Neil is on (short) notice. Moxey is quite right to choose his words and staying carefully in such circumstances.
