Lets imagine we are in the relegation zone by October there will still be some saying they need to give him more time.

It’ll take a good few months to sort out this mess. I wonder if these fans were quick to criticise the last regime 4

Tunell & Changing Rooms are important to the players - so needed doing. Hot water is a basic human right - correct, but we didn't have it so needed doing. And stadiums have teething problems. We clearly didn't want an opening home fixture for this exact reason. There's a lot at the club that we should have had for YEARS but haven't had because of neglect. Just because they're basic things, doesn't make them less expensive/complex to implement. We are SO behind the times that small improvements like a freshly painted tunnel are a HUGE deal. Laughable some fans. It can't have been more clearly signposted what a work in progress this project will be but there'll be moaners regardless. 2 1 14
Popular Post MenstonOwl Posted August 10 Popular Post Posted August 10 I think some of the £8m spent on the ground will be invisible to a lot of fans for the most part, with it being behind the scenes improvements such as the changing rooms and corporate hospitality areas, the latter being higher up on the priority list as they'll make more money at a faster rate from that then adding another pour tap or 50 pies per kiosk on a concession stand. What I see is a list of things that need to be done and that list being dealt with based on priority........in short, a plan! They'll look at where they can improve revenue quickly first then move on with some of the 'nice touches' like beer systems and food which drive revenue but nothing like a £225 per person Pantalones bar will Patience is needed, but there IS a plan, they're communicating it and so far it looks good 5 5

Look - there are clearly a lot of issues that need addressing, but we are only 100 days in aren't we. Don't think some people appreciate the scale of the task for the new owners. This isn't just a restart, it's a f*cking salvage job. 1 4
Popular Post lukeyswfc Posted August 10 Popular Post Posted August 10 I don’t think Rob appreciates how much damage Chansiri did to the club. Likely turned up to the Boro boycott game because “I’ve paid for my seat!” 3 9
darklord Posted August 10 Posted August 10 Think some fans think this is 60 minute makeover. Takes time to rectify the ghosts of the past 1 1

This isn't anything to do with HP it's about the owners, who are currently doing a brilliant job of trying to get the club back on its feet. 1
Popular Post HirstWhoScoredIt Posted August 10 Popular Post Posted August 10 I don’t think some people live in the real World. You can’t get a kitchen bought and fitted inside 12 weeks. Some fans think they should have gutted 4 stands from a standing start. Unbelievable. Material changes take proper planning, especially so you don’t end up spending money twice through rushed decisions. Very clearly, any major upgrades will take place over the next few years not weeks. You have to book decent contractors several Months in advance. They have a pipeline, they can’t just drop their other customers because Wednesday have come calling. Some people are so deluded I don’t know how they get through the week. 1 31
